(Not using my typing quirk causes me dysphoria. I will provide a translation upon request only.) ~ The reason why I joined this instance was 8ecause I’ve 8een kicked off of Tum8lr for having the opinion that transness doesn’t just apply to gender. I don’t just pull this out of my ass - I actually experience nongender transness myself and I’m fully willing to 8e asked and/or grilled a8out it. I call myself transcharacter.

My Tum8lr termin8ion came entirely from claims of transpho8ia, 8ecause somehow in their minds identifying a8normally equals not supporting trans folkel/people? I don’t quite understand how that works, 8ut I can say I’m not transpho8ic. I discovered that I feel this way through hearing other trans folkel/people discuss their experiences and came to my own conclusions a8out myself.

I guess I’m wondering if this is a safe space for my ilk or if I’m just going to get kicked out again?

    Uhhhhhhhh lemme 8r8k this down.

    Does nongender trans mean that you don’t have a gender?

    No, it means I have a trans experience that isn’t transgender. Except… I guess I really don’t have a human gender, do I? I’m a troll why should I give a damn? (If you REALLY wanted to you could read me as “transfem” in the troll sense considering how timid I am IRL and am transitioning to 8e more fierce and troll-girl-like 8ut that’s a stretch and a half frankly.)

    But if you are transcharachter and the experience is as close as to transgender (which also seems vary a lot) as you say I see issue with calling it trans (I mean it’s already dropped the gender part, It’s begging to be an umbrella term isn’t it).

    And… why is that, exactly? And there is an um8rella term, transID. Except if I introduced myself like that I would get a8solutely torn apart 8ecause of The Discourse(TM.)

    Now that I think about it is it like how furries have fursonas or something?

    Oh hell no, don’t reduce me like that. Most furries aren’t their fursonas. If transgender folkel are their gender, then I am Vriska Serket.
