This came up in another conversation, and I didn't want to derail it. (It derailed  itself!  :laugh: )

I'd like to see if  people identify as a firm binary gender or something else.

Hugs, Devlyn

Apparently, recent therapist discussions are pegging me as nonbinary. I think they're right.

I guess I'll be second. If this is an all or nothing type question then I am in the non-binary category.

Definitely non-binary for me. To paraphrase the late great David Bowie, "I'm not sure if I'm a boy or a girl." I never was sure, and it never made sense to me why it was important in the first place. I know I'm much more feminine than masculine, but I really can't commit to being 100% female, and I've finally come to a place in my life where I'm happy just to be me.

None of the above or I don't know.  I don't really care either.  The only thing that I do care about is that the dysphoria is gone and I can live everyday without that weight crushing me.

Love is not obedience, conformity, or submission. It is a counterfeit love that is contingent upon authority, punishment, or reward. True love is respect and admiration, compassion and kindness, freely given by a healthy, unafraid human being....  - Dan Barker

I question whether or not I'm an earthling. Binary or non? Does it matter?

It doesn't matter, it's just a curiosity question. Someone mentioned that they felt more people align with the binary. I think more people align with the grey areas.

I'm in a similar boat to what Joni described above , definitely more feminine than masculine but I don't think I could ever count myself in the 100% female basket even as a transgender female. I have multiple shades of gender and sexuality, but I count myself as transgender female more than anything else

so strictly speaking -- non-binary.

I am gender binary.

Sexuality I am binary with a twist. Pre-Op I could be wth a woman but I did not enjoy it and I had to imagine I was with a guy. Hard to do but doable. Now, post op, I wonder if I could be with anyone other than a guy.

I'm me. I'm a Dad to my kids, bi sexual, transgender women. If being Dad and a women makes for an odd pairing I care not. I am happy and all the anger and anxiety is gone. That is enough.

In my programming days I was hexadecimal, cop days .357 Sig, Navy days .30-06.

In my male days I flew quite a lot; one day after doing aerobatics, I thought I was a hot shot pilot... until I had a conversation with a lesbian. That's when I realized I was a lesbian; we both liked the same thing.

Being transgender female I still prefer women. So what am I?

Best always,

Hi.  I'm bran new here and still figuring things out.  Definitely in the non-binary category.  Always knew I was TV but only recently began to realize its more than that.  I think I've been too much of a coward to confront it. Gaining incredible peace looking at the world through a woman's eyes.

Definitely non-binary, but much closer to the feminine end of the spectrum. So I feel much more comfortable living in a female gender role.

I am mostly binary, but I'm not naive enough to believe I am 100% binary.  There's no way you can live 60 years as a male and not drag some of that stuff along when you transition.  I identify as female.  But where am I on the spectrum?  90%?  95%?  99%?  I don't know.

I feel exactly like Sonja and Kathy - mainly meaning around 90% female. I cannot delete the male side I have lived so long and do not wish to delete the better aspects of it.

Consequently I do not have strong opinion as the whether B or NB but to be precise I vote NB on gender.

(I believe sexuality is separate from gender as many of us do).

For 55 years I've been trained to be male while my mind was always screaming to be female.  Being male has always been acting for me but when does acting become so ingrained that it's a part of you? 

Most of the time I don't particularly identify with either gender.  I suspect it's derives from the fact that many cis would not accept me as part of their club.  I've never been a big fan of team sports so that's okay.  :) 

I suspect if I could have transitioned when I was young, I would have been much less confused about this.
