I'm bisexual, though still a bit inexperienced with relationships of either sex and have very narrow 'types'. I guess I'm just really attracted to androgyny as well. TBH I find 'coming out' or randomly announcing who I prefer to have intimate relationships with to be strange so no one really knows yet, but I still sometimes want the topic/appropriate context to come up so I can admit it.

Also I'm maaaaybe genderqueer but I'm not sure if I'd really call myself that because it's, I don't know...pretentious? Tumblr-y? Not entirely sure if that's accurate? Basically I like super girly and masculine stuff(including a serious interest in crossdressing... :p) but I don't really care too much about being in a box. I'm just me, you know? And I won't stress about being myself. If I had to have some label I suppose I could be an androgynous female...

I find the concept of bisexuality/pansexuality interesting because you are able to love someone for who they are as opposed to exclusions based on gender. None of the "he's perfect but I'm a guy" complications. I'm not sure if I am wording this correctly, so correct me if I am wrong.

I just find it to be intereting, in a good way.

Also Amethyst, I think crossdressing is pretty neat. Have you made an attempt at it so far?

I also like crossdressing and would do it, if I wasn't so scared of incoming hate wave from the general community.

I haven't really cross-dressed yet, since I don't have too many chances to go out and do so if that makes sense. If I do I'd want to commit fully to it, at least appearance-wise(like a wig, binder, 'masculine' makeup, etc). I'm planning on going to some conventions next year so maybe I can "crossplay" to get a feel for it, and it'll be more acceptable to do so there anyway ^^' But at the very least I do like to shop in the guys' section in clothing stores too  X3

And I don't think I'd mind if I get flack for it. In my part of the country(AKA the south) there are plenty of things about me that would be "unconventional".

What constitutes masculine makeup?

Also I've heard of people using binders having issues with constriction if used for too long.

It's more like makeup to make your face more typically "male". For instance, making the jaw look wider, darker/thicker eyebrows, lighter lips, etc. Even facial hair if you're ambitious enough  X3

I don't think I'd get a real binder unless I really want to. I'm kinda..."small" in that area so I could get away with wearing a thick sports bra or something. I also wouldn't wear it everyday, like some ftm people might.

Makes sense I guess. I hadn't thought about makeup used like that. As for the size thing... I guess that's good in this situation?

I don't even know anymore. I'm honestly curious about all this. Not exactly a ton of opportunities to ask people about the subject.

I've done a little bit of theatre makeup so it's kind of similar to that in a way ^^'

I'd like to have more discussions about this stuff/gender with people too, but it's a rather...divisive subject sometimes. Everyone has their own thoughts on the matter, so their will sometimes be disagreements or different opinions. I'm still trying to figure out who I am and what I really feel like  XP

And if I do so, I shall get some pics. I need to post in the photo thread sometime anyway.

Sorry that your attempts at discussing the subject can be divisive with certain people Amethyst.

If you're ever willing to talk about it, I'd like to hear.

Sorry if I sounded negative in my last post ^^' I was just thinking about certain people on a certain blogging site.

When I think about it having different ideas is what makes discussions interesting, like having a different perspective on others' experiences. Sure, if people are spiteful or just want an argument it's no fun, but otherwise it's not so bad.

Agreed. I won't always agree with a person, but I won't throw away the opinion of another person simply because it goes against what I believe.

Unless their opinion is hateful. That's different of course.

May I ask why do you want to look like a man other than for lulz? Nothing is preventing you from engaging in "manly" activities as a woman.

I'd like to know the same. Isn't your personality an internal thing, not external?
