Your experiences always really resonate with me. We must be fellow travellers. I've also been considering changing to the Z pronouns myself. Really glad to have you posting here.

similar stuff

When I'm presenting with femme clothes and makeup at home, I'm the gender I want to be (whatever that is). But when I walk outside, I know everyone will just see me as a gay man. That thought kills me because that's not what I am. It makes going out a lot less fun for me.

I just don't have the energy to voice train consistently right now and I feel like my body is just really feminine-looking. It's weird, I kind of like my current physical form, but in the abstract way where I appreciate it aesthetically and don't feel connected to it.

Back before I had done any sort of real introspection about my gender or sexuality, I liked that a lot of people suspected I was gay. But that's most because being a cishet is lame and why would anyone want to be that? In my case, I don't think even think it was because of my presentation or mannerisms. Still would prefer people think I'm gay than allocishet, but probably would not like it now.

more dysphoria talk

Yeah. I think I posted about it before, but I discovered that I was experiencing physical dysphoria through first naming my social dysphoria. And I literally just made the realization that I only like the way my physical form looks in the abstract. In the past, one of my doubts was always "hey, I kind of like parts of what I look like so do I really have dysphoria" but I finally have the answer to that.
