~semi-~ Serious question, Idon’t get it. Most of us get why the hegemonic gender system is stupid, why subscribe to the binary role you were assigned? Also, why do straight people exist? Maybe it’s just me but I like to look and feel like my own perception of what is attractive.

That's a stupid question imo. Cisgender people didn't choose their identity anymore than non-cisgender people did

I didn’t choose my gender but there’s still a reason I’m non-binary. I learned that gender was bs and realized I never strongly associated with being a dude and didn’t want to grow up to be seen as such by others.

The reason why I'm cisgender is partly bc I can't imagine myself as anything else in terms of gender
