GENDERQUEER IDENTITIES: 30 Day Genderqueer... →
gender-queer:
Many of these could have “Why or why not?” added at the end, and for length sake pretend “or lack of gender” is added after every instance of the word gender (for the agender folks).
Adapted from the 30 day Trans challenge and the 30 day [GSM] challenge. I wanted something a…

gqid:
See full list of challenge day descriptions here (list created by gender-queer). I’m tagging my responses with 30 Day Genderqueer Challenge.
I understand “dysphoria” to mean intense discomfort around certain aspects of the body that are related to an identity/body conflict. I use a…
genderqueer: How to deal with social dysphoria? →
genderqueer:
These are my true feelings as well! I am so glad I found this written by someone else. I really thought I was the only one experiencing things like this!
Submission from nimself:
There’s not a lot of talk of how to deal with social dysphoria. Generally the assumption (of the binarist community at large) is that you’ll just medically transition and pass and all will be well.
But,...

How GenderQueer Works For Me
It seems that so many different actions or activities have a specific binary gender associated with them. For example: Getting a pedicure is easily associated with being female, and changing the oil of a car is male identified. It is unfortunate that we live in such a binary gender dependent society whereby which different activities are defined by the gender most likely to partricipate in them....

artoftransliness:
There’s an abundant amount of information and resources on the internet about coming out as transgender to parents, friends, and coworkers, but not a lot that takes into consideration the specific issues involved with explaining gender transition to children. Whether you’re a parent, older…
I hate when you say “I hate that song” and someone goes “well you have to admit it’s catchy”

life-deconstructed:
Gender queer: a catch-all term for gender identity other than man and woman, thus outside of the gender binary and heteronormativity. People who identify as genderqueer may think of themselves as one or more of the following (WIKIPEDIA):
both man and woman (bigender, pangender)
Neither man nor…

mortykins:
So yeah. I’m writing a paper on the Gender Binary and Social Labeling. I should say that I have interest in this because I find myself fighting with the binary (it caused me a lot of mental strife…it might actually still be…) as I identify with gender queer. I am interested in the binary itself…

Gender Neutral Bathroom Challenge - Day 3 →
rightqueer:
It’s day three of the Gender Neutral Bathroom Challenge started by two friends of mine. This means that I (and the hundreds of others who are participating) can’t use any gendered washrooms (multi- or single-stall) for the entire month of April. I understand that doing this does not mean I will know what it’s like to be trans or gender variant, or even what it’s like to try to...

The Thick of It ~ by Zan
The Thick of it ~ Zan swiftly I run into myself wishing for an ocean side to gulp this gloomy afternoon dark clouds and thunder in my soul the shadow is dark and murky tear down these walls but my heart is breaking somebody lonely…. finds…. friendly you.
Worries, by Zan
Worries take careful footsteps over shattered emotions loathing in bed to purge the hectic, busy late autumn day desolate skies fog somberly dusky thoughts which rush like a shot in my mind. dream of sweetness and sex and candy, but anxiety is somebody who bursts my every emotion. My heart beats out of my chest making me lonely and obscuring images of you.
