maybe I'm enby? (hexbear.net)

autocorrect keeps wanting to make it "envy," which isn't entirely wrong

How did you figure out you were enby?

I've come to realize that my super-femme presentation is a form of masking, and I'm trying to figure out where I actually fall in the spectrum of gender.

So yeah, how did you figure out you weren't "gender" and were actually enby?

Does just thinking that maybe I'm not either mean that probably I'm not either? Is the state of being unsure and kinda in-between where you identify or what?

Dating someone who later came out as enby, and realizing "I like you for you, not for any gender(ed) performance" as well as "I actually was drawn to the moderate/fluid femme in you, the way I have a moderate/fluid masc in myself".

Then realizing in retrospect after this that I'd felt like I was hiding all the sides of myself that are in-between, and deciding to stop repressing them. Also glancing at a picture and thinking "that's a very androgynous person sitting there" and then realizing it was me. Kids coming up to me and asking if I'm a boy or a girl has just been icing on the cake.
