  • In addition to what the other commenter said, I want to add that the inverse is also true - intentionally or not, women tend to step out of the way for men a lot more often. If you spend some time peoplewatching on a busy sidewalk, there seems to be a kind of unwritten social hierarchy of “which person needs to step out of the other person’s way”, which most of the time seems to be something along the lines of tall man > short man > short woman > tall woman. This has led me to an interesting realization - before I started transitioning I used to have a lot of encounters (often multiple times a day) where both myself and someone else step out of each other’s way and then do that funny little back-and-forth dance until we figure out who’s staying in place. The other person in these situations was almost always a woman, and this hardly happens anymore when I’m presenting fem (but still happens a lot when I’m boymoding). Apparently I’d subconsciously figured out my placement in the sidewalk etiquette hierarchy years before consciously realizing that I wasn’t a guy!






  • depends on whether you’re using the MOGAI definition of bisexual as “attracted to exactly two genders” or the LGBT definition as “attracted to more than one gender”

    in practice there really isn’t much distinction, i don’t know a single person who identifies as bisexual and wouldn’t consider fucking a non-binary person, and the main distinguishing factor between people who label themselves bisexual and those that label themselves pansexual seems to be “was this person active on tumblr or other online communities with a similar vibe at any point between 2014-ish and now”.
