Love this post! You have such a fun playful style of writing and itโ€™s a style that I never see on like, reddit for instance. Emojis are really looked down on there and language is expected to be pretty standardized. I love how much fun u have w it :3

Thanks for sharing your story! :) My partner was binary trans for years before they came out as nonbinary, which far more matches their identity.

I myself thought that binary trans was the only option when I was in high school so I pushed that egg deep down down down until my early 30s when it cracked open. When I first was thinking about transitioning, the idea of fully going fem just didnโ€™t feel right for me. I feel so grateful to live in a s o c i e t y where itโ€™s more welcomed than in the past.

I thought that it was just being adorable and clever.

This is wonderful, though I feel like โ€œI donโ€™t feel super comfortable in my bodyโ€ as a pre-cursor to nonbinary identity is a narrow view. I didnโ€™t experience much gender dysphoria before transitioning, but I experience a hell of a lot of gender euphoria when exploring my nb side.

It must have been so much more difficult to engage in relationships like this back then. It truly was revolutionary, to go up against everyone in your life and society to follow your heart.

Iโ€™m navigating this with my partners right now.

Iโ€™ve decided to go barrier-free with my two partners, and use condoms with everyone else.

We are a pretty incestuous polycule and mostly use barriers with those outside the friend group, and weโ€™re all tested frequently. ~3 months.

Me and one of my partners also take daily doses of PrEP, which nearly eliminates the risk of contracting hiv. Iโ€™m also fully vaccinated, so the only thing I could potentially get that canโ€™t be eliminated with drugs is herpes, but that is very treatable.

Itโ€™s an awesome feeling to come to accept! I know many trans individuals who started off going hard binary trans, and then settling on something more in the genderfluid or nonbinary spectrum. I think it feels more right for some people to go full binary trans in the beginning in situations in which they have a part of themselves that has been heavily repressed by society. After theyโ€™ve โ€œgot it out of their systemโ€ so to speak, some people realize that theyโ€™re actually not always one or the other gender.

Itโ€™s an experience that some relate to and some donโ€™t. Congratulations on coming to a deeper understanding of yourself! <3
