Socially male, Romantically genderqueer?

topic posted Sun, October 28, 2007 - 9:53 AM by  BlackManChild
a few things have me thinking about gender lately.

1. I am a switch and love a good pegging. i have had 3 GFs who were game. at best, they were turned on by the novelty of 'fucking a man in the ass." one couldnt get past the idea that i just might be gay. (i REALLY like a good pegging)

The point of all of this is that i realized that i have never really associated penetration with gender. when i was little i REALLY wanted to know what it felt like to be a woman; enough so that i remember getting in trouble for pretending. i remember when i discovered' sex i was fascinated by the thought of penetrating and of being penetrated. i never was interested in just one piece of it, so here i am now.

2.i have been looking around for a transgender partner and kept on seeing that they wanted to be treated "like a real woman." after reading 1 i am sure you can see how that might be a frustrating sentiment. there is already a thread about whether or not trans peope maintain binaries, so i will not belabor that point.

3. i am a switch. but i am, apperently, a really good top. but, again, when i start talking about giving control in sex, gender roles become an issue and i realize that i just don't care.



all of this lead me to try to find a label for myself to simplify explanation. i think genderqueer fits...but then the kicker is that i just don't "look" genderqueer...which seems to complicate issues further.


*sigh*

any thoughts?

    I run into that since i look like the cyclist version of Vinn Diesel on the outside with the voice of Don LaFontaine.
    I am happy with my physical, but i get lumped in with the rest of 'the guys.
    That doesnt match with my gender identity, which is all over the place, and my orientation, which is pretty pansexual.
    Personally, i decided not to make other's genders or biological sex parts factors into my interest in them. I treat others as
    i wish to be treated.

    In the words of Captain Jack Harkness, ' You still have sexual orientation in the 21st century....? How quiant.'
