Facebook Realization

Someone wrote…

I realized today that I only started using actual pictures of myself for my profile on Facebook after I realized I was genderqueer.

What’s your experience?


And what are you thinking about gender right now?

    Me too! I find it a lot easier to allow myself to be photographed (or even enjoy the resulting pictures) now that I’m starting to understand my gender identity a little better.

    I’ve only started to allow people to take pictures of me since becoming more comfortable with being uncomfortable in my skin.
