I've been dropping small hints by not using any gendered terms when I can get away with it, for me and them
I love my medium length hair, mini ponytail for life, but I want to get a different cut
just
shave the sides off, and have a long floppy cut in the middle top that I could potentially part down the middle to do a bob cut or tie it back like a man or swept to one side like a boss

@Elder-God-Whisper work

I take all gendered terms. Just not familial terms. That’s just ew to me. I don’t like being labeled as firmly one thing and one thing only. My gender is a fluctuation, Iwish people who treat it as such. But NO! “PICK SOMETHING, DANI!”

@Becfromthedead group

Okay, so I ID as cis female, but I really really hate being referred to as terms like "ms.", "ma'am," etc. It just feels bad and wrong. Is that like a normal thing?

Deleted user

Honestly that’s fair. People experience gender differently and that’s okay.

@Becfromthedead group

Yeah, I figured as much lol. It might be a queer thing? Like I'm a cis woman, but I sometimes dress more masculine or neutral, and I have a pretty loose relationship with my femininity. Like I'm just vibing.
I think "ms/mr/mrs" hits me the wrong way the most, and I can't explain why. And I don't like the gender neutral "mx" either. I'd rather be addressed by my first name tbh. Don't really care that it's supposed to show formality or respect.

I like being called Mx and Doctor, but I don't have a phd so no Doctor for me

@berlioz

I used to dislike Mx., since I thought it sounded silly being my only option for a title. Then I was still coming to terms with being non binary, and stepping out of the binary was awkward. Now I love it. I like that when I use Mx. people can tell it's purposely not binary. Suits me :)

Deleted user

Personally, instead of Mx., I usually use m'theydy for the nonbinary folks
