I am FTM and afraid to admit it because I know people would think of me like you do. Yaoi fangirls wanting to be in yaoi.

Uh huh. I'm not even gay.

Re: 14

...out of curiosity (with no offense meant)... when you say you aren't "even gay" does that mean you aren't attracted to women or aren't attracted to men? Are we going off of the 'biological' gender or the, uh... 'percieved' gender?


I don't mean this as an attack or anything, I'm just wondering.

Re: 14

[(Anonymous)]

It means I'm an FTM attracted to women and yaoi doesn't apply.

Re: 14

fair 'nuff.

Re: 14

[(Anonymous)]

I wish that was enough to be convincing these days. Unfortunately, a few fandom lesbians like to play pretend FTM too. Assuming they're even lesbians in the first place.



It's getting ridiculous.

Re: 14

[(Anonymous)]

Does it matter?

(Serious question, by the way.)

Re: 14

[(Anonymous)]

Yes, it does. Watching someone flip back and forth between male and female depending on convenience at the time really makes other FTMs look fickle. It cheapens an otherwise serious disorder.

Re: 14

Yeah, because gender isn't fluid for some people at all. Oh those silly genderqueer people!

Re: 14

Um. Isn't using the term "disorder" considered a bad thing? I'm confused.
Also, are you saying that people who prefer androgyny are making a mockery of gender identity in general? or that people who identify as FTMs should always be manly, all the time? or what? Personally, I think it is possible to feel like you were born in the incorrect body, but still like your own personality--manly, feminine, or otherwise--and want to keep that part of yourself. Some people claim "the body defines the mind," but seriously, wouldn't I be the same person if I got a sex change, only physically male and maybe a little hornier, thanks to the testosterone? I honestly don't understand how someone who claims to be an FTM doesn't get that there are more than two genders and that male doesn't always equal masculine, and female doesn't always mean feminine.
