Colored a doodle I’ve done at school. I wanted to express how dysphoric i feel about my body and as an “non-binary” FTM, how hard the society seems for me to live. Even though I live in California, there are not much trans awareness, no need to mention non-stereotypical transgenders. Even in GSA (Gay-Straight Alliance) of which I’m the president, I don’t feel fully accepted. In addition, I get a lot of hate comments from other binary FTMs and transgenders—calling me a “poser” or I’m just “delusional”. (fortunately I don’t get too much on tumblr, I mainly get hate on twitter and Japanese trans community)
I really, really hate there is a hierarchy in our community where we reject each other, when we are really supposed to support one another.
Gender is a scale—gender identity and gender expression are distinct terms, and one can be androgynous/feminine/masculine or fluctuating, regardless of one’s gender identity. I think the society is not yet ready to fully understand that….
I’m a gender non-conforming panromantic queer FTM. :> As you can see, I’m a tiny dude and have no luck for passing. -_- Well, there are a lot more than just these….but I guess these are main ones for now. Anyway, feel free to talk to me if any of y’all can relate or just curious. <3
