Re: Best fandom faker stories

I get that they identified as cishet at that time, but like, how do you know that they actually were cishet?

I don't know, man, it just seems to me like, with all of that stuff, a lot of those people probably were trans and didn't know how to identify it or acknowledge it or deal with those feelings and issues - or, especially back in the Older Times of the Internet, didn't really know what the whole deal with being trans was in the first place.

It's the same thing with people who used to pretend to be girls on MMOs, back in the day - it seems to me that a lot of those people, not all of them, but a good number of those people probably were trans.

Not everyone that plays with gender is trans, though. My boyfriend crossdresses sometimes, but is perfectly comfortable identifying as male. We've even talked about that and he's 100% sure of it.

When you hear hoofbeats, think horses, not zebras. You're ascribing transness to an incredibly wide swathe of people who it simply doesn't apply to.

That's why I said some but not all

Okay, but this thread is about fakers. Even if most of the people it applies to aren't trans, I don't think most cis girls claim to be trans guys on the internet because they're ~faking~

They're experimenting. I used to say I was bisexual because I thought I was. In hindsight it's clear as day that I'm asexual. But I was not ~faking~ when I said I was bi. I believed it. I think most of the girls saying they're guys believe it too.

I am bisexual and (I think?) cis female and spent a year or so in 1999 pretending to be male online. I wasn't pretending to be *gay* though, I was pretending to be a straight or maybe bi ( mostly into women but occasionally sort of attracted to a man too) and it was definitely a way of exploring my gender identity (which I still don't really know for sure, though I am sure I'm not a trans man. Maybe gender fluid, maybe agender, but I'm fine with being considered cis female most of the time?)
