Agender enby here. I'm going to assume you mean 'trans' as in 'identify as a strictly binary gender'. I was assigned female at birth, and I went through pretty much all three of these at various points in my life, but I mostly hung around the 'Tomboy' zone of presentation.

Gender is a performance, and I'm thoroughly annoyed that people only understand the show if I dress so much like a guy that I start feeling uncomfortable. I'd rather have a good audience than a good show.

Local culture and an accepting social circle did more for my dysphoria than a pair of pants ever did for me.

    That is how I'm using the term here, more or less. You could call a lot of things trans, but I rather not bloat a term.

    I appreciate you sharing! I'm boring (cis) myself, but I'm quite involved in the queer community, as a gay man.
