Profile: Aaron

Aaron

You can call me… Aaron.

I identify as… an effeminate queer trannyboi.

As far as third-person pronouns go, … I far prefer male ones. “Sir” gives me warm fuzzy feelings.

I’m attracted to… Feminine men. Feminine women. Masculine women. Androgynous people in any body. Humor. Sarcasm. Intelligence. Goofiness.

When people talk about me, I want them to… not refer to me as “that weird girl who wants to be a guy.” (I don’t know that it’s happened, but I imagine it probably has.)

I want people to understand… that even though I have some personality traits deemed “girly,” it doesn’t mean I’m less of the man I know I am on the inside.

    “that even though I have some personality traits deemed “girly,” it doesn’t mean I’m less of the man I know I am on the inside.”

    I totally agree with this.

    I agree. I hate when some feminine traits means you MUST not actually be a boy. If you were biologically male people wouldn’t see those same traits and say “oh, you’re actually a girl, sorry.”

    Totally agreed. Biological men can be as effeminate as they want and nobody looks twice. When I’m effeminate, people think — if they don’t outright TELL me — that I’m not really genderqueer. ):<

    Yes, yes, this. Sometimes I want to be full-on FEMME, not just effeminate—and someday I want to realize my childhood dream of growing my hair down to my waist—but I wish more people would understand that that doesn’t cancel out my androgynous nature and spirit. I like living in the middle a good portion of the time, but I never want to be boxed into it! D:

    “Biological men can be as effeminate as they want and nobody looks twice.” Uh, well. I think I understand where you’re all coming from. But…

    People may not question that an effeminate biomale was born with an XY, but anyone presenting effeminate masculinity is going to have some difficulties.

    This part really got to me “When people talk about me, I want them to… not refer to me as “that weird girl who wants to be a guy.”

    I get that type of thing all the time…

    But anyways, very cool profile (:

    This is awesome! I feel the same way.
    I got told yesterday that I was the “coolest straight person” my friend had ever met. I said “i’m not straight” She looked at me and said “but you don’t like girls.” I gave up on the conversation.
