I guess it's time I spilled some beans. As a few of you may know, I joined here because I wasn't sure if I was male or androgyne. Before I could post a thread about it, however, I came to the realization that I was bigendered. (Thread at http://emptyclosets.com/forum/support-advice/52857-gender-identity-realization.html ) Or so I thought.. I did start making drawings of Coraline (my girl self) in situations I was in. However, I'd only made 2. I then started making drawings of another character who was neither gender. I named him Nikki, since that deemed fit. Upon creating Nikki, I felt more like him. Everything he expressed was what I felt. Yes, I was the artist. But I related to him, more. A combination of the aforementioned and struggling to try and see if I, at the time, was a guy or girl, still brought me back to "I might still be androgyne" Through all this, I came with these truths: 1. I do not know what is feminine and what is masculine. Meaning: If you give me a trait and ask me if it is feminine or masculine, 99% of the time, I wouldn't know where to put it. 2. I know bigendered people have these "in between" periods, but these periods happen MUCH more often than periods of "I'm a guy" or "I'm a girl". 3. Part of me doesn't feel right when I say that I'm bigendered. I know the thread posted said I was, but now, I just don't know. I know people say it's rare to see a true androgyne.. which is why I ask if I could really be one. I do have one more question, though: Do bigendered people have in-between moments than not? IF YOU GUYS NEED ANY MORE INFO, LET ME KNOW... No, no personal stuff.
Cymbrii, I know what he means. But aside that, I did put in a request for Full User. 11, I'm there, now
Oh, don't worry. I've had a thread completely hijacked and then taken over by a flame war between 2 people. Yeah, that was fun.
Um.. explain please? It'd be kinda nice for this thread to be a help guide for others in our position.. 11 11 11: I'm free anytime, tomorrow. I still gotta stay home.
Oops... i did have more... look like my computer delated the second part.. I have my moments where sometimes I feel like I am stuck in-between being a male or female, but at the same time I sometimes feel like I am either a male or female (I have my male moments more than my female moments.) So it's confusing at the moment for me.
Bigendered people can and do have periods of being in-between; the frequency of these, if they are there, will vary by person. It's fine to feel like both/neither more often than one or the other, and that is just the way you are. I myself feel female about half the time, and androgyneous the other half. And it may be rare to meet a "true" androgyne, but that doesn't mean that therefore you aren't. There are still some, after all. I hope you can figure yourself out. (*hug*)
