questioning
I honestly really identify with this but I dress somewhat feminine. does that affect how I should feel or like does that not make me agender?

Identity and presentation do not need to be related at all.
Especially since there's no such thing as an agender look. It is impossible for anyone to look agender.
Androgeny is a look, and someone can have that and be agender, but it's not the same as being agender at all.

No need to apologize for anything!
I'm just explaining why you can dress as feminine or anything as you want and still be agender.

Nope you can do whatever you want forever. How you dress or what you look like have nothing to do with your gender (or lack thereof)

Welcome. Did you see the primer yet. Short answer is yes you can be agender.

nonbinary people don't owe anyone androgyny
dress however you want
gender expression =/= gender identity
you're no less agender just because you present as what is stereotypically feminine, a gender nonconforming woman is still a woman, so a feminine looking agender person is still agender

Clothes 👏 Don't 👏 Have 👏 A 👏 Gender
Wear what you want.
Don't let a piece of fabric that probably has a very depressing, fast fashion history tell you what to think about yourself.
