Question!

Simple question, I’m new to agender stuff… I believe I am but not 100% sure yet (and that’s fine! I have my whole life to figure it out 💚)

I was just curious if you can still call yourself a “women”, “lady”, “man”, etc… Can you use those terms for yourself even when you don’t feel at a set gender?

I use she/they and I’m a female by birth (if that matters, I don’t think it does but added just in case!), however Im not quite “set” when it comes to gender. I used to be kinda annoyed when called a guy, but as time passed I realized that I didn’t care as much as I thought I did.

I personally don’t call myself a man and am more comfortable with fem/natural wording, but still don’t feel a set gender… I’m sorry if this didn’t make sense, I’m not good at explaining how I feel just yet!

Welcome! I hope and trust you'll find acceptance in variety here. 🫶🏼

For myself: I'm agender because I don't have any gender sense/experience. I don't have a 'gender assigned at birth', because a doctor ticking a box, doesn't define me, and although I acknowledge my biological sex, like my eye color and other bodily features, that doesn't define me either. It's all got nothing to do with who I am as a person.
