I went on an Omegle video chat alternative. I know that sounds gross, but I was just hella bored and had a chat there with someone who had broken speakers, so even though he wanted to use video chat, I had to type everything out to chat with this bozo.
I’ve been feeling dysphoric and “mannish” lately, and I assume that everyone sees me as male, especially when I speak because my voice is still masculine.
On this one chat where I don’t use my voice though, this stranger on this site types, “Are you a boy or a girl? I literally can’t tell”.
I was about to shit myself on the spot, so I immediately disconnected and left the site.
I was like “No fucking way. There’s NO way he said that. That can’t be true! What the fuck? What did he see that got him to think I was anything but male!”.
I’m non-binary, and I definitely love being androgynous, so this hit me even better than him assuming I’m a woman would.
I told all of this to my group chat of trans friends I know in real life, and they said “No, you actually do look very androgynous. We’re not joking.”.
I’m shocked, but overall, I’m feeling a shit ton of gender euphoria right now. I so fucking needed this after all the recent dysphoric episodes I’ve had. They have absolutely not been pretty.
This has been a rare Angel W.
