Sexuality: IC and OOC
-
I swore I posted in this thread before, but I can't find it if I did. Probably one of those 'write something up and discard instead of posting' things, lol.
I've never been one to put much thought into labels. I've always figured it's because I'm terrible at making decisions, but I think part of me is just scared to definitively label myself and end up being wrong. That said, my BFF is very into labels so I think about it a little more because of them than I would otherwise.
I'm pretty solidly asexual and aromantic. I've always known I'm not cis, but my gender is basically a shrug emoji. I think if I knew what trans people were when I was younger and praying to wake up as a boy every time I went to bed (spoiler alert, atheist now), maybe I'd be trans masc? As it is, I'm old and ace and agender works well enough for me right now.
As for characters I play, they're almost exclusively male and not a one of them has ever been straight (usually bi, some closeted so straight-appearing, etc). Female characters rarely last long, but it doesn't keep me from trying occasionally.

I thought we were supposed to have life figured out by the time we were my age
I think this is a mantra for everyone over the age of, like, 24.
I've always had a deep appreciation, as an adult, for how very adept other adults were at bullshitting their way through my adolescence.

Saw this. Thought it was informative. Maybe someone else can be helped by it.
