Good afternoon,
I identify as a gender fluid individual, my internal gender fluctuates over time. Some days I feel more feminine, other days more masculine. Sometimes I am both, others neither. No matter what, I am myself.
In keeping up with my ever changing identity I try to do little things to keep in line with my current "flavor of the day". Since 95% of the time I'm a mix of male, female, and sometimes other, this can get hard at times. Generally speaking, I try to do the following:
1. I keep a beard in some fashion. I rarely shave it, and Even if I do, I have a five o'clock shadow by the end of the day. Bonus, my girlfriend loves stubble.
2. My glasses are unisex frames.
3. I paint my toenails. Usually different colors on the left and right foot, often chromatic opposites.
These simple little things help me feel in tune with however I might feel at any given time. So as the title states, how do you be you? What part of your ensemble or behavior makes you feel most like yourself?
