Hey, we haven’t been able to find a secure way to poll everyone yet, and I’ve really been itching to ask everyone this question so we can get updated numbers on our trans population here. This isn’t going to be scientific or anything, but just a quick guess.

Please respond to this post with a ‘yes’, ‘no’, or ‘maybe’. If you have anything to add, please use a spoiler tag below your answer like so:

    i would say no

    I’ve been thinking about this some recently after doing some reading… and more and more I’m recognizing that the enforced gender binary is bullshit and bad for us, all of us. Like @Infamousblt@hexbear.net I’ve benefitted from many privileges being a cishet man and think basic male culture is especially bad and would like to distance myself from it when I can. But I don’t really feel like I issues with my body. I’ve wanted to paint my nails and think that kilts should make a comeback. But I never thought of that of anything other than a different sense of style. Given all of that it really feels like I’d be stealing trans valor if I were to go “I’m gonna present like a normie cis dude but declare myself nonbinary for political reasons.” I was going to make a post about this at some point so thank you for the opportunity. I accept being a part of the cis-purge if that’s the plan lmao

    Either way Care-Comrade
