Hoard

Various labels I identify as and hoard, and some additional (possibly incoherent) explanations alongside them.. The flags will link back to their sources/creators (if I can find them).

Gender

Transgender FTM

Originally a woman, but due to various fun reasons, I am now a man!

So far, I've only (personally) come out to a few people and transitioned socially (mostly online).

There's not much to say about it. Being a girl was great. I just like being a guy better. I related too heavily to a masculine character one day, put on some names and pronouns, and my fate was sealed. T'was my destiny...

Not only that, but the transitioning/transgender part is important to my identity overall; It gave me my confidence, stability, understanding, and control. It's hard to say who I'd be without the transition itself.

Because of that, I use the term transman to occasionally refer to myself... But I'm also okay with trans man. It doesn't matter that much outside of my personal experience ^^

Chaosgender

While I mainly identify as a man, my gender identity is often very unstable, unpredictable, and very non-linear.

I've gone through various identities and labels in the past, and while I don't identify with them as strongly now, sometimes it feels as if I never really dropped them.

I'm not the person I once was, but they're still me, still somewhere in this mess I call my identity. Nonbinary, multigender, girl, boy-- all overlap, interconnect, disappear, reappear, minimize, and maximize.

Basically: Me and all of my past selves are holding hands and frolicking in a garden. Sometimes some of them have to go away to take a break, or they randomly decide to lead everyone along and sprint ahead. Yippee yay woohoo

Additional genders

Genders that are less prominent or long-term to me. This section will be subject to regular change.

Chaosbodiment

"a genderbodiment subterm; a gender connected to being the embodiment of chaos."

Usually I see myself as a product of chaos rather than chaos itself... but this rings true, too. Every artwork has a piece of the artist, after all.

Voidbodiment

"a gender related to being the embodiment of the void"

The opposite of chaosbodiment, but very connected to it. It is to me at least. Before there was existence, there was chaos, and before chaos, there was nothing, and that nothing is the void.

Genderrecluse

"a gender system related to recluses, or being a recluse. it is also related to isolating oneself, and avoidance."

I spend a lot of my time alone (sometimes from anxiety, disinterest, or a disconnection from both humans and animals), and it does affect my identity quite a bit.

Riflerecluse

Similar to genderrecluse, but with rifles involved.. I tend to get gender envy from characters that wield rifles, and admire the designs of the weapons themselves. I don't even know much about weaponry.

Sniperrecluse

Similar to genderrecluse, but with snipers involved.. I fear that Sniper TF2 has permanently ruined my identity /hj

Tactikal

"a neogender umbrella that encompasses/connects to firearms, canines, camo and masks, among others, and how these qualities interact with ones gender. this can exist alongside or instead of other gender identities"

I don't relate to the canine part (see my addition on genderrecluse), but, yeah. There is something strangely tactical about me...

Crosshair

Under the umbrella of tactikal. I'm like a weapon that wields itself. Or a wielder that happens to be very destructive. Something like that.

Orientation

Aromantic-asexual

I don't feel any romantic or sexual attraction, nor do I want to. #Celibacy

I'm also mildly romance and sex repulsed, in a way where I'd still gladly listen to/talk about romance/sex related topics, but would loathe to be personally involved in those situations.

Gay

I like* men. Fictional men. Not sure about IRL men yet, but I'm not willing to find out.
* Like as in merely willing to be in a relationship with, or to do romantic activities with. Drawn to, rather than attracted to...

FTM4FTM

I like other trans men. Yeah.
