A couple weeks ago I posted in the transgender talk forum about a trans-themed game we were making for our university's ally week.
Right now I'm creating "identities" for the players to assume while playing. I'm trying to keep them broad, yet inclusive. My problem is I really don't know enough about androgyne people to write one, and I was hoping to get some help here.
Most, if not all, of the people that play will be either cisgendered male or female, so I wrote them to be gender neutral so girls can play it as FTM, while boys can play MTF. The purpose of this whole thing is to educate people about us, so they need to be simple enough that people can easily wrap their heads around it and don't give up and wander off.
Here's the two I have written, for comparison:
"You are a crossdresser. From about the time that you started puberty, you've wanted to wear clothes traditionally worn by the opposite sex. Eventually you snuck into your sibling's closet and tried on some of their clothes. Now you want to get clothes of your own, but you are afraid of being found out. You have no interest in being dressed all the time, only once a month or so is enough for you."
"You are transsexual. Ever since you were a child, you always felt uncomfortable in your own body. Your parents bought you toys and arranged playdates with other children the same sex as you, but you always wanted to play with children of the opposite sex and their toys. As you grew older, your bodily dissonance only grew stronger. What you want more than anything is to physically change your body so your sex aligns with your identity. Then you can live in deep stealth, letting people think you were born that way."
