How would you define or describe your gender?

Unsure, I was raised female but I was a tomboy as a child, and I've gone from just about every gender identity, even desiring to transition (not only just FTM.) There is a psychological issue with this based on my own self-hatred, trauma, and my lack of a clear personality (not just gender identity or sexuality... everything) that I have experienced throughout my life. However I have learned my lesson about sharing who I am with others, even if I trust or thought I could trust them, I lost a potential relationship because of it and I will never make such a mistake again, ever.
My orientation is a mystery, most likely asexual or demisexual (but that could be due to trauma) I did foolishly "fall in love" with a guy though. I don't think I experience attraction, and I am unable to have or form the most basic relationships/friendships, so I consider my orientation unimportant.
Appearance wise I dress however, I guess it's feminine, I look ugly in any clothes and I can't stand to look at myself in the mirror, but I don't wear dresses or skirts that much, and I wear make-up when I can force myself to.
At this point in time I think I'm 60% Feminine.

 

The long of it...: I'm a non-conforming faab individual that, while not entirely male and certainly not traditionally masculine, identifies as "male-leaning". I am more comfortable using a male name and male pronouns socially, and prefer to be seen as a male. I don't feel completely male, so I guess I'm really somewhere in the middle of the spectrum. I also think it's important to note that while I do see myself as male, and I don't feel a connection with being a woman, I also do not necessarily feel a connection with being a man - probably largely from the connections I have with the term and concepts of machismo, If there were a viable third option, I'd pick it, but I still feel a need to be perceived as male because of the dysphoria I experience over my body and my voice.

...and the short of it: Non-conforming/non-binary transmale

 

Still mainly presenting as a guy because of anxiety/family/society/body etc., but to most of my friends I'm "openly who-the-hell-knows?"

 

I pretty much express myself masculinely or androgynously, and dressing up in girly clothes and makeup is kind of like drag to me and since I became more comfortable with myself I've become more open to experimenting with how I express myself. I was assigned female at birth but much like paris said, if you rounded up I'd be a guy and if you rounded down I'd be agender. So I'm happy with being a transmasculine demiboy, and just expressing myself how I want.

 

Female. Sorta tomboyish. Sort of not caring. But I'm pretty sure I'm not like most girls. I'm fine with that. I'm still a girl, but it's not like I really care. I prefer to dress more masculinely often, but sometimes I go feminine and I will paint my nails and do some basic maekup when I have the time. Not to look feminine, more just to add a bit of polish to my look. My hobbies could pretty much be the hobbies of a guy except maybe some shows I watch like Real Housewives and my fangirling. I'm more emotional than guys but less emotionally expressive than girls. Being called a young lady makes me cringe but so does being called a handsome genteleman. I'm just a girl but not a lady. So as I said, female.

 

I'm...me. I'm human. I don't need a gender to say who I am

 

I identify as genderqueer because that feels right. I am probably genderfluid, but that doesn't fit me for some reason. I present male because I was cis by default for most of my life, I think if I was born a girl I would have been a tomboy but been comfortable being feminine. I wear nail polish and necklaces and have some nice unisex outfits but want to get more.

 

I'm a guy, and I enjoy being a guy, but I'm also feminine, and I enjoy being feminine.

 

I've always identified as female, but as younger I didn't care to be too "feminine", I had a "tomboy"-phase where I cut my hair shorter and we played a lot outside, climbing trees and stuff (I "was" Misty from Pokemon )

I had a cis-feminine phase in jr. high school & high school, somehow confiding in gender norms made me feel more accepted. Secretly I admired the more genderqueer, lesbian and other lgbti-kids at our school. During my first year at uni I found my androgynous side, both inner and expressive. For a while I went mostly without makeup, had cut my hair short and wore neutral-looking clothes.

Now I still identify as female but not femme, some days I can still express with makeup and even a dress, but usually I just do it for the change, not for feeling super feminine inside. I'm confortable with looking and feeling queer or andogynous, in my head gender isn't such a big fuss. If I manage to get some interested or confused looks from strangers, I just smile.

However, a new thing is FTM-daydreaming, that's interestimg to me because it is present only during sexual fantasies or experiences. Haven't fully figured out yet why I feel more masculine during sex.

If I'll be in a relationship with a woman some day, I'll probably express my more masculine side or at least tone down the feminine, since I have a feeling that I'd like tp be "protective" and that I open doors, buy flowers and lift up my gf. Assuming she is femme or otherwise comfortable with it. Of course, those are just constructions of femininity and masculinity I know, but anyway for the sake of explaining

 

I usually say nonbinary.

I am AMAB. I act more androgynous (and would ideally present that way, but I can't right now). I really HATE gender stereotypes. I was unashamed of being in cosmetology. See, now I'm talking like I'm a gender nonconforming male, which I'm not. I do feel more male at certain times, but usually nonbinary (maybe agender). I usually don't mind being called male either. A couple times I have kind of felt more female (today was the most female I have ever felt, but it lasted like a minute). I am kind of fine with clothes made for men too, but again, I'd like to be more androgynous. Sometimes, I like wearing clothes made for women, which I'd like to be doing right now, but I'm too lazy to get up, and I'm in the living room, so there's the possibility of getting caught. Okay, maybe more than sometimes. I also have long hair, and want it to be longer. I kind of also want to get rid of my arm and leg hair sometimes. I also don't really like having a male face.

I couldn't really find the right word. Agender, demiguy, and genderfluid fit me the most, but I didn't really feel like those exactly. So, that's why I use nonbinary for now.

I guess I'd describe it as something like genderally (I just HAD to) 55% nonbinary, 35% male, 10% female, maybe a little less male and female.

 

Male. I didn't even know what the fuck cis was until a few days ago. So if we want to get technical I'm a cis-male. But all that specification is just weird to me. I just say male. I wear makeup, yup. I walk and talk like a man, yup.

 

Cisgender female here, with androgynous gender expression. I think most gender roles for women are shit and wouldn't do anything I also don't expect a man to do. I used to think I was trans or non binary, until I realized that I can just be a woman who doesn't need to "act" like one.

 

I have not yet done much transitioning other than clothing and various habits like walking and learning to speak with less of a feminine expression and tone.

Physically I look feminine, which when I think about it or look at my body it makes me depressed. I mostly hate my hips, butt and boobs and face shape.

Where it should actually count, meaning everything under the surface of skin and shape, I am a mildly effeminate man (at least this how I see myself, my true self). I do like some very feminine things. I like wearing a little bit of makeup sometimes. And I like my long hair, but I am going to get it cut off soon.

 

A female, kinda tomboysh who loves short haircuts, lipstick, nail polish and skirts... I like sports and all those masculine things but my expressions DO NOT define my gender (I'm a person that was born in a body that doesn't feel right)

 

Words are hard, none of them really fit quite right. I'm not a woman, I'm not 100% a man, I'm definitely still a guy, but also definitely an enby. Some days I want to wear leggings. Everyday I want people to read me as male. I look hot in lingerie. I love my body, sometimes I don't like my voice. I wish I had a dick, but I don't, oh well. XD

Mostly I just say "I'm in the neighbourhood of the masculine side of the gender spectrum".
