Do you try to adhere to your assigned gender role?

Personally I came out as trans after a total break from reality/ ROGD. I was always very feminine, although I didn’t realize it until I just couldn’t pass as male. Nothing about me was naturally masculine, but people were so awful about me being trans that I got obsessed with passing as male so I would never have to tell people I was trans again. That included talking in a monotone if I had to talk at all, always covering my face with hair and a hat, wearing baggy drab clothes, and never connecting emotionally with anyone. Pretty miserable stuff.

So yeah assuming I can ever pass as female again I can’t wait to have a little freedom with makeup, now that I know the difference between expressing myself and covering myself with it. I can’t wait to feel comfortable wearing fun clothes again...growing my hair out and being able to braid it... getting excited in front of people without worrying it makes me clocky.

I’m not a non-conformist. I like to blend. I liked being a woman, and I’m excited to live it again.
