Profile: Kat

You can call me… Kat

I identify as… pansexual gender-fluid

As far as third-person pronouns go, … I would prefer to be speaking a language where it’s not an issue, such as Finnish, where there’s only one third-person pronoun to use. Since I don’t live in Finland, however, for the sake of convenience I go by female pronouns.

I’m attracted to… Feminine men, mostly. Personality over physicality, though.

When people talk about me, I want them to… …not define me by my perceived gender. Yes, I am biologically female and don’t consider myself trans. That doesn’t mean I should be expected to act like a stereotypical girl. I have a very “masculine” personality, but still, that’s not a definition of “me”. I am not defined by male or female, I land somewhere comfortably between the extremes.

I want people to understand… Nothing’s black and white unless you paint it that way yourself. It even goes beyond shades of gray; don’t colorblind yourself and miss the differences between one person’s yellow and another’s green.

    Wow, you put all my feelings into the best words, it’s nice to “meet” someone so much like me. I’m a biomale, but that doesn’t matter much. My female friends that would complain to me about men would always tell me I wasn’t a man, but a guy. I guess it’s not very gender-neutral, but still, I like it.
