So I guess #NonBinaryPeoplesDay was yesterday, but for the record, I do identify with that term.

It& #39;s mostly important in terms of how I understand myself, and I care less how my gender& #39;s perceived. That& #39;s why I haven& #39;t brought it up. But for visibility, I& #39;ll talk about it.
When you get down to my gender identity, it& #39;s accurate to say that I feel pretty unmale.

While I won& #39;t say I judged being male, I have an antipathy towards it which I first noticed in therapy. A male identity fits me poorly.
At the same time, while I have feminine qualities, I don& #39;t really feel a female identity suits me any better.

I don& #39;t feel a need to use different pronouns. I feel like who I am comes through pretty well, so I& #39;m good sticking with what& #39;s familiar. It doesn& #39;t distress me.
Part of why I haven& #39;t mentioned this is because it feels like an internal thing? Like it& #39;s a technical spec of an emotive machine only I will ever operate.

But I& #39;m always glad when people discuss their relationship with gender, so it seems appropriate for me to do the same.
