Daithi Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 Ive know that i was trans (transmasc) since i was 11, but recently ive been a bit confused. I identify as a trans non-binary and use he/ze/they pronouns. Ive never worried about being misgenderd, cuz i live in a coutry where a lot of the language is gender neutral (still misgendering happens, but its a lot less). Only recently have i been confused, like when i was called someones boy best friend. It felt strange. Could it be im just not used to it? Calling myself a boy feels wrong but calling myself a person also doesnt seem right. It might just be that ive been misgenderd up until now and its my first time being accepted. Still id like to hear someone elses thoughts on this. MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monsoon Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 Hey @Ezra- Thanks for coming to us about this It's interesting that you're questioning this. I can see that you have chosen he as one of your pronouns, so I would have thought that being referred to as 'boy' would have been okay for you. I wonder, has anyone ever referred to you as he/him? If so, how did it feel? MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daithi Posted August 26, 2021 Author Share Posted August 26, 2021 HI. Being called he is good, i like it, i dont experience it a lot, but it does feel nice. Thinking about it, i might not like being called a boy, cuz it was used to bully me in middle school. Talking about it, it might get better with time.

Monsoon Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 Hey @Ezra- I'm glad to hear that being called he is good for you. I wonder, is there something you could do to help people use 'he' more often, like wearing a pronoun badge? It might make it easier for coming out as well if you aren't already out to them. What do you think? Also, yeah, talking about it will definitely help things to get better :). How are you feeling about it all at the moment? I just thought I'd check because I know this journey can be difficult, and talking helps massively. Speak soon. MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im good with telling people my pronouns but i feel like a badge might be too much. Im feeling better for sure,but its probs gonna take time.

Monsoon Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Hey @Ezra- Ahh, okay, thanks for explaining that about your language. Yeah, it would be good to tell people your pronouns for sure. I wonder, are you hoping to change your name at some point to one that you feel may reflect your true identity more? If so, maybe you could think about that a little more and then when you're ready, start telling people your new name? MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
