Profiles: Kristen
You can call me… Kristen
I identify as… demiwoman (?)
As far as third-person pronouns go, … she/her (but I feel like I would be fine with gender-neutral pronouns too)
I’m attracted to… I’m asexual (so don’t feel sexual attraction) but I am romantically and aesthetically attracted to more than one gender (bi). I’m not sure if I am attracted to people despite gender, so I don’t identify as pan.
When people talk about me, I want them to… speak as effortlessly as they do about someone more conventional, while respecting my identity.
I want people to understand… that most of us probably do not fit in the binary options we’re generally taught as the only options for gender, and that gender has been and continues to be used as a tool for oppression and marginalization.
About Kristen
I struggle with some mild anxiety, and have lingering issues as a result of childhood abuse and neglect at the hands of a narcissistic parent. I am struggling to explore my sexuality and gender identities, but feel fairly confident that I am asexual and biromantic. I’m not yet sure about my gender identity, but I think I might be a demiwoman.
