• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

    We have to do a survey to rate our teachers at the end of every term. And it asks for sex: f or m. And the last time we did it it made me actually physically ill even if I am in the binary. It was enough to kickstart a downswing. I wish I could just say oh, it's not important, you know, and some...

    I see trans* as anyone who isn't cis, yeah, and trans more just the binary transitions or w/e.

I guess whatever the person feels it is...

    For me it's like I'm sloooowly getting more comfy with my body, starting to accept what I am physically and group that with still being male, but I know that for all the work I'm going through it's just personal. No one but me is going to understand the many facets of how just cause I have...

    Stop pretending to be the Trans* Representative, okay? Because your opinions are wildly different from mine. Being trans is part of my identity now. I know I am trans, and honestly, after lots of thought and work, I think that's just part of who I am. Sure, I want people to see me as male...

    You know, this is an interesting question. I'm pretty sure that a lot of interpretations have it that transgender is the umbrella term whereas transsexual/transexual refers to just the people who go to lengths to have their physical appearance match their gender identity? Personally I think...

    This topic is getting off to an interesting start, and something I've been meaning to address (mostly for myself)! Which is to say, reconciling one's knowledge that the concept of gender is kind of silly and sometimes hurtful with one's knowledge that one does have a gender. I'm coming into...
