Description
(( Thank you for asking this! I wanted to describe Edgar's gender identify as best as I could. Sooo what is his gender? He's gender-fluid. What does this mean exactly? Well, it basically means that (I'll use Edgar here as an example) that Edgar feels male one day and female the next (maybe every other day, week, etc. it all varies!) Edgar doesn't conform to either gender but likes to change between the two. I tried to create a scenario that was relatable but also unique to Edgar. You feel me? Yes, he loves that pink bow in his hair. Anyways, feel free to ask more about his gender identify if you need any clarification! Edgar is always happy to answer.))

((Yeah, I call it gender queer, but gender fluid can be a term too.
I'm gender queer or ''gender fluid''. Though I was born a boy, I was surgically changed into a female (I did not know this at first...it's a long story). I was born with something called a micro penis, so the doctors feared it would be ''dysfunctional'' so they performed a surgery when I was just a baby to change the micro penis into functioning clitoris out of the existing tissue from the micro penis.
I grew up pretty confused. I felt like a boy...wanted to dress like a boy and do boy things. They may have changed the outside but they didn't change the in. See, we already choose our genders psychologically before our genitals even begin to form in the early stages of our development in the womb. So my psychological gender was male. It wasn't matching the biological gender of my female genitals that had been put there by medical science. I was literally....sexually reassigned by the doctors without my permission. I was only a baby so of course I couldn't make the decision on my own. And I didn't find all this out till later.Β
So because my psychological gender wasn't matching my surgically altered biological gender, it became a huge....conflict for me. It's pretty similar to the ''Joan-John case'' en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Reβ¦
Eventually I did somewhat accept my new identity as a medically reassigned female. I did go through a long period of identifying more as a male. But I prefered neither male or female pronouns. But it wasn't until recently that I began to embrace both my masculine and feminine side....so rather than being a hardcore ''Female-To-Male'' (even if this is kind of inaccurate, since I was born a male but surgically changed to female, but still identifying with my masculine side), I now consider myself ''gender queer'' or fluid between the two genders. I don't really consider myself a Male-To-Female transgender person since I didn't choose to be reassigned as female. Though I prefer female pronouns now, I still embrace the boy inside me. I kind of feel neither. Some days, like Edgar, I feel more like a boy. Some days I feel more like a girl. I dress both tomboy and feminine. I take on behaviours of both. So yeah, I'm moving constantly between the two. I'm comfortable now in the body I'm in. I used to hate it and wanted to go back to being my original male self. I wanted to take hormones and go through a full transition. But now I'm OK with it.Β I don't mind my breasts because they're small....I kinda have no figure anyways, I'm pretty straight and flat like a boy. So yeah.
I relate to this a lot. Thank you for answering my question, and I can't wait to read more. ))

((WOW! That is quite the story! This was really fascinating to read. Β Thank you for sharing this!Β Β
I'm glad that I was able to present Edgar's identity in the best way possible. I've more less been struggling with what my identity is and I like to be able to express that through one of my characters. I too, consider myself gender fluid or gender queer because I like to wear make-up or dress in more feminine looking clothes. Yet, I usually feel the most comfortable in men's clothes and sometimes I bind my chest.Β
I loved answering this! ))
