June is Pride Month! Do you feel you’re on this scale? Or more of a mix of different ones?

    According to the diagrams, holding your arms outward is feminine, but holding them inwards at your side in order to take up less space is masculine. Sounds backwards

      You mean outward is backwards and inward is (straight)forward ? Or is it the other way around ?

    Probably between a 4 and a 5. I have a running half-joke with some of my friends that I’m the only femboy who is actually a woman. Half joke because it’s rediculous but also it’s kind of how I actually feel.

    I think this ought to include two dimensions (at least), one spectrum of gender and another of presentation. So woman to man on one, and feminine to masculine on another. The middle on the existing chart gets complicated because it wants to order butch women on the femme=woman side and feminine men on the masc=man side and they don’t quite line up. If I could draw, I’d make a chart like:

    Barbie Tig Notaro
    Dan Levy GI Joe

    (celebs just examples that came to mind, not necessarily the epitome of this structure lol)

      I agree, it’s definitely oversimplified. I bet all of us are X number in one trait, but Y in another. Gender is so diverse it can’t be simple.

    I’m a 2. I wouldn’t say I’m pure sugary pink fashion loving girly, but pink is my favourite colour and I love animal prints and bows.

    @[email protected] I’m a 9 when it comes to banning people but you’re a full on GI Joe 10 haha

      haha, I think in terms of gender identity I am similar, I’m probably a 2, sometimes I can vibe with anything from 2 - 4, but compared to other women in my life I tend to be more femme.

      This chart could use a second dimension for saturation / intensity.

      And yeah, I’m definitely rigid in my rule-applying 😆 Will commit moderation hate crimes apparently 😝

    Honestly, kinda flit everywhere between 2 and 6, depending on the day. I feel like I’m probably a 4 on a normal day, but I can’t ignore the times of “My gender is something beyond your, and my, comprehension.”
