Yorkshireman and tea drinker.
I think I might be transgender.
It’s been an on and off thought for around 7-8 months now. I can’t confirm it, but I can’t deny it either.

Asking this with full sincerity:
Why care about what gender you are at all?
I'm a male, and I couldn't care less about what gender I happened to be born into by fate. Who I am has nothing to do with my biological sex or gender. Shouldn't it be this way for you too?
Don't listen to Deep. What gender you identify as is important, and unlike him, gender is not something you are born into but something that is chosen by you. No matter what, know that your identity is/will be valid. Choose what gives you satisfaction and peace.

Why is it important, though? I couldn't care less about my biological sex and gender, and my life has been immensely better for it.
Why not just choose to be yourself? I'd be me regardless of gender, sex, race, sexual orientation, etc. All these labels are small fry compared to forming your actual individuality.
Also, make sure to reply to this. I'm not that scary

Because it simply matters to some people. You live on a placid lake of ignorance in regards to the matter. Some people are different inside than they show upon the outside. People are born as a sex they do not desire, people are pushed into gender roles they do not want. This disconnect is painful. And hearing yourself called your gender, who you yearn to be is an amazing thing.
Being Trans, Nonbinary, Gay, Lesbian, Bi, Pan, Ace, etc is being yourself. People give words and meanings to experiences, lifestyles and feelings that are shared. It's a beautiful thing. They are not small fry, they imply a human experience. Something that shapes and changes a person as they go through life. Your dismissal shows your wealth of ignorance.

Why do you jump to assuming it's ignorance versus me genuinely disagreeing? I've heard this all before, understood it, and came out disagreeing. Just because you lay out an arguement doesn't mean that the other person has to agree with it.
This is 100% true, though. It seems to matter a lot to some people. I just choose to make it not matter to myself since I choose to disregard all aspects of sex, gender, race, and sexual orientation.
I guess it's just impossible for me to see it mattering to myself. If you waved a wand and made me a girl, I'd just shrug and be like "Oh cool, guess I'm a girl now." And same if you made me gay, trans, etc. When I realized I was bisexual, all I could do was shrug with indifference. Because my core personality isn't dependent on my gender and sexual orientation. The same way race doesn't play into who I am at all.

Willful ignorance is still ignorance. Regardless, no one here asked for your opinion. Especially when it is incredibly dismissive. Hawker wanted to share their revelation, not deal with you coming in like a teenager and going 'lel none of it matters in the end'. Nihilists are fucking annoying.
Well congrats O Enlightened One, but your experiences aren't something that can be universally applied to others. They also aren't meant to be weapons levelled against other people because you disagree over petty reasons.
I'm sure the entire field of sociology and psychology is crumbling to the ground over your earth-shattering revelation that you believe that your own physical and mental self doesn't influence who you are. Never mind the paradoxical implication of saying that you are bisexual doesn't impact who you are at all. Can you be you and yet not you at the same time? You have no consistent arguments. You're an awful contrarian who slithers into comment sections like a wad of raw sewage and stinks up the whole place.

It's a public blog lol
It's always funny how people like you just spam "ignorance" over and over. It's like you can't wrap your head around the fact that someone can understand your points but come to the conclusion that those points are wrong for certain personality types (such as mine).
And here I am always being accused of being the head in the sky optimist haha. Didn't know it was nihilism to want a world where biological sex, race, gender and sexual orientation didn't matter. I always thought that was the goal.
Weapons haha? I simply asked a sincere question to the author of the blog, nothing more. You guys are so similar to religious conservatives in that a simple question is seen as an attack. Emotionally unstable much?
Once again, I was just sincerely asking a question out of genuine interest. I wasn't intending on being a contration to your religion.
As for the bolded: Literally NOTHING changed in my personality after I realized I was bisexual. My sexual orientation is a superficial trait, no different than my race. Sorry that I have a strong sense of individuality that isn't affected by my genetic and superficial traits
Edit: Maybe I am enlightened compared to you guys/gals obsessed with this gender stuff
You're no different than conservatives who are obsessed with race.

So? Do you harass strangers on the street unsolicited because it's a 'public space'?
Yeah I can understand how sincerity and honesty doesn't fit a little shit such as yourself. Your personality consists of being a prick with a skull ten inches thick who comes in and says "dont be trans just be yourself!" like you just discovered the secret to happiness.
When people say that. They don't mean that they don't exist. They want those labels to not disadvantage or bring discrimination upon those whom adopt or are those labels. Again, you are profoundly and willfully ignorant
"Ehehe triggered libtard." Why don't you come up with an original argument? Maybe if you cared about your identity and identified as funny, maybe you could come up with an original comeback. You're insufferable. People have beliefs and convictions that matter to them. People have sincere identities, which I know is a shock to someone as irony-poisoned as yourself.
What religion? I'm a Buddhist, where did I bring up the Dharma?
Well certainly, being Bi didn't make you any less of a slimy prick so I guess it doesn't matter in your case. Other people have their own personalities, and you don't get to act like yours is superior to theirs. Again, stop being dismissively ignorant by shouting like a moron: "Lol have you tried just not being trans?"
Race is also a bit different than simple genetics, again, you are ignorant. Race implies a shared experience and identity because genetics hardly fucking matter and are extremely malleable. Tell me, how do you define if someone is English? Is there a specific English gene you can point me to? Race is a made up concept, and it makes sense that conservatives are obsessed with it because they have to consistently affirm their made up racial identity in order to justify excluding others who don't fit in. It happened in the US with multiple European people who are considered white now, but weren't historically.
For someone named Deep, you're about as shallow as a wading pool for toddlers.

You do realize my entire shtick is honesty, right? I've literally never lied in years, not even for tiny things. And the fact that I can actually say that is so freeing. I can't think of a single other person who can legitamately say that.
Dude, you're talking to the person who quite literally forgot that he was brown at points
Like, I actually forgot that race existed haha. So yeah, these things don't exist to me. It's just how I live.
That actually wasn't a comeback at all. You legitamately remind me of conservatives who get mad at people asking sincere questions. Having converted a legit white supremacist away from racism in Ohio a few years ago, I can confidently say that you remind me of him.
Also, just read your most current response. You come off really emotionally unstable, dude/dudette. Not a comeback. More like, I'm kinda scared to see how you are in real life
My identity is that I am myself. I'd argue that's more sincere that superficial traits. If I transitioned to a female, nothing about my core beliefs, hobbies, likes, dislikes, dreams and ambitions would change.
Religion as in you're getting mad at me for asking genuine questions and posting sincere disagreements. This is like arguing against a religious Christian who thinks I'm a bad person because I don't share their worldview. I've always treated LGBT people as equal individuals. However, I'm free to ask questions and disagree as much as I want.
5534731
Honestly, don't respond.
People who still value gender are never going to wrap their head around what I'm talking about. And I'm never going to be able to wrap my mind around the idea of caring about one's gender.
Let's just agree to disagree.
5534747
Then keep it to yourself.
5534808
Only if you agree to keep your thoughts to yourself as well.
It's hardly fair that I silence myself while you don't.
Cool
If you need to reach out to anyone, there are plenty of fine folk around who can help you with any questions you may have, or point you in the right direction :) The Transgender Bronies group is one place to start.
It is your choice on whatever gender you feel you are, in fact I think there is a few transgender brony groups somewhere that can help answer all your questions.
On a completely unrelated topic, when is the next chapter of A one step forwards, a huge shove backwards coming out? I like how the storyline is going.

I'm not sure. I've not had much motivation to write much on these stories lately. I do intend to finish it though.
