Allow me to look at this from the reverse side.

I'm biologically male, and I've been a member of a writing club for the past couple years. There have generally been significantly more female members than male members. Counting the transwoman as female, only one of the male members since I joined writes in a genre I'm interested in. (He does this weird alternate history stuff with masked priests and zeppelins, if anyone's curious.)

To be certain, a lot of my favorite authors are male, and some of the folks I get along with well on writing forums say they're male. But speaking generally, it seems like my interests tend to overlap more with what girls like than with what boys like.

I know what you mean. I was pretty into sports in elementary school, and I worked in a morgue for a while so a sadly large number of my female friends decided I was weird and stopped speaking to me. So while my two closest friends are female, most of my friends in general are male.

What did you do in the morgue, may I ask? Were you an ME, an assistant...?

/has thought about working in a morgue before

Counting the transwoman as female

Why did you need to specify this? Of course she's female.

I wanted to note the outlier. She's apparently had to deal with a lot of authority figures who didn't understand her at all, so she's very focused on the concept of identity in a social context. None of the other writers in the group, male or female, write quite like she does.

Okay. I'm not sure what that has to do with... anything we're talking about, but okay.

This is going to sound really stupid, but. Are you coming at this from the perspective of a dude (a true reverse of the situation)? You said you're "biologically" male which implies that you may or may not ID as such. Sorry for the really dumb question

To draw an analogy, I do not have Asperger's Syndrome and have never claimed to have it. However, people who meet me often assume I have it. I don't consider myself a person who has Asperger's, but I consider myself a person who is in the Asperger's "box" (for lack of a better word), since people react to me according to whatever stereotypes they hold about people with Asperger's.

In the same way, I don't consider myself a person who is male. I just consider myself a person who's in the male box.
