Hey, we haven't been able to find a secure way to poll everyone yet, and I've really been itching to ask everyone this question so we can get updated numbers on our trans population here. This isn't going to be scientific or anything, but just a quick guess.

Please respond to this post with a 'yes', 'no', or 'maybe'. If you have anything to add, please use a spoiler tag below your answer like so:

Maybe/yes.

If we take transgender in the broader manner that activists like Leslie Feinberg advocated, it would be a yes for being some sort of non-binary/gender non-conforming/genderfluid situation. Though I have some imposter syndrome about this. If we took a stricter definition of actively trans-ing my gender/changing my gender markers etc then no, though I am intentionally taking partial androgen blockers/DHT blockers for the feminising effects on head hair and body hair.

Anybody who doesn't take it in the broader manner that Feinberg advocated, anyone who restricts "trans" to mean "binary and medicalised", gets the wall.
