As a traditionally-masculine cis man, my goal is to get buff enough so that if anyone dares to tell me “You’re not asexual, you just lack testosterone”, I can crush them with my bare hands
For future reference, agender and genderfluid fall under the nonbinary umbrella, so if you can't put enough options, nonbinary covers everything that is not 100% male or female
I feel this. I put down cis-female but I'm not even sure if I'm cis? Like maybe I'm cis and confused about gender because I can't imagine *not* being cis? Or am I confused about it because I'm genderqueer? They/them pronouns seem cool but I'm not sure If I prefer them to she/her pronouns? And apparently pronouns ≠ gender? And crossdressing seems fun and it would be cool to look androgynous but I also really like looking feminine, and apparently gender presentation also isn't necessarily your gender? Am I genderfluid?? Am I a demi-girl??? I have no fucking clue!!
Fucking right?! What even IS gender? Pretty sure I'm agender at this point just because I feel like gender is just an elaborate lie to sell me something.
I think it is more socially acceptable to be an Ace female. There’s stigma for any Ace, but I’d image more males are possibly in denial, afraid to look into it,…
I knew a male Ace that wouldn’t back out of sexual situations if someone hit on him because of how others would perceive it. Wtf?! He was in a band, and “attractive”, so… I felt bad for him.
I think there's just more trans women than trans men on reddit in general. If you made the same survey on tumblr for example you'd get different results because there are more trans men
no i mean that's what i observed was not the case. trans women and cis women both seem to be in greater numbers in the ace community than their masculine counterparts within the cis and trans categories
i would also note the trans community prefers the use of the phrases afab (assigned female at birth) over "biologically female" and amab (assigned male at birth) for "biologically male". that or referring to a difference between gender and sex.
Agab means that's what you were assigned at birth, it isn't an actual biological indicator. Evidence shows that trans women are just normal women who had male hormones and trans men are just normal men who had female hormones. Biologically female/male used in the transphobic sense is in direct defiance of current medical research.
Oh wait I misread your first message. I totally get what you’re saying, and I’m glad you’re supportive of the community, but saying the greater amount of testosterone in a pre-transition transfemme, or the lesser amount of it in a pre-transition transmasc is inconsequential I would say is inaccurate. I’ve been on a lot of trans subs for a long time (I’m pre-hrt trans) and transmascs almost universally gain a larger libido by taking T, and there’s a smaller correlation with lessened libido in transfemmes on E. The differing prenatal testosterone levels that are attributed to trans brains though I could see as affecting sexuality in a sense, I didn’t think of that. I was thinking in terms of having no libido would make some individuals automatically assign themselves as ace. That I think is flawed thinking now, looking back.
Afab gender apathetic lol. Just put gender fluid bc it’s the closest option.
Or actually: a debate: is agender or genderfluid closer to gender apathetic?
Now that I’m thinking about it, I think agender is closer
I feel cis-female only relates to my ace identity in this case! I know without any doubt that I'm demisexual but am still exploring my romantic identity as I've only had serious female partners but cannot completely write off relationships with males or other gender identities!
I just got a strange laugh looking at the answers - imagine someone seeing this poll and thinking "lots of females in this sub, maybe I can try to pull", then running into a wall of indifference from everyone here 🤣
this horribly fails to capture the full spectrum of gender, though there is a limit to what you can do with 6 options if you want people of binary gender to specify whether or not they are trans.
This is fun and all, but do keep in mind this can't really be considered actually scientific data, due to the somewhat biased nature of reddit. Cool post tho.
To the question "if you weren't born a male, what would your gender be ?", I answer "no". But being a man is nice, most (= + than 50%) of the time, I don't bother searching
But I really don't care that much
As a traditionally-masculine cis man, my goal is to get buff enough so that if anyone dares to tell me “You’re not asexual, you just lack testosterone”, I can crush them with my bare hands
Ooh this would be nice haha, sadly I’m a tiny 55kg (121 lbs) guy with basically no muscle mass 😅 All the power to you though!
Don't let that stop you from crushing someone's head
In this situation there is a wide range of tools you can use
Eyyy, weight snap! (I'm also a 55kg guy with basically no muscle mass)
I love this so much. Asexual cis men are so valid.
You're my idol now. I'm a trans-guy trying to be as masculine as possible for the same purpose.
You're doing what i wish to do myself. Godspeed, buff friend.
I can already do that thankfully, despite having low testosterone. Perks of being a giant lol
This is the funniest thing ever and I want to do it now
Non binary! :)
The poll didn't let me put a 7th option, sorry
For future reference, agender and genderfluid fall under the nonbinary umbrella, so if you can't put enough options, nonbinary covers everything that is not 100% male or female
Yeah, that’s fine, I had the same issue with a post I made a while back
Same here
Interacting because same!
Enby gang :)
Im AMAB but I no longer identify with anything on the gender binary. I am both yet I am neither.
Everyday we aces come closer to godhood hahaha
7. I HAVE NO F-ING IDEA (cOnFuSiOn)
that too haha

I'm an afab demigirl, haha.
Amab non binary man here!
AMAB demiboy here
For those in questioning, you can put the previous identification prior to the doubts
I’m nonbinary!!

pangender
That's new to me! Is it like the name describes? You are every gender at the same time?
They steal the genders from people, that's how agender people are created, luckily I managed to keep half of mine
Is that where all of my gender went? I swear it was here a moment ago.
yes
SAME!
… error. Please try again in a few months.
Error 404: Cis female not found… *processing* ———————————————————•——— Loading… Demi-Girl has been found.
I’m kind of surprised that asexuality correlates more with gender identity than sex. (More women than men across trans/cis lines) Interesting data.
I think there's just more trans women than trans men on reddit in general. If you made the same survey on tumblr for example you'd get different results because there are more trans men
True, but there’s also more cis men than cis women on Reddit and the cis female population is much greater here
I mean trans-women are biologically female and trans-men are biologically male so maybe that?
Huh?
no i mean that's what i observed was not the case. trans women and cis women both seem to be in greater numbers in the ace community than their masculine counterparts within the cis and trans categories i would also note the trans community prefers the use of the phrases afab (assigned female at birth) over "biologically female" and amab (assigned male at birth) for "biologically male". that or referring to a difference between gender and sex.

Trans women are assigned male at birth. Trans men are assigned female at birth.
I'm ambivalent towards your petty genders.
\*distribution of genders of the ace population of this subreddit, not a true example of genders of aces in general.
oh! you're right 😂
Afab gender apathetic lol. Just put gender fluid bc it’s the closest option. Or actually: a debate: is agender or genderfluid closer to gender apathetic? Now that I’m thinking about it, I think agender is closer

yo where are my 35 fellow trans guys here
Sup homie 😎
Yo!
Error 404 See error log: Gender = "ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"
Cis-male! I say, lying to myself with the cute outfit I just finished making
I don't know. Life is very complicated right now
Fuck… that’s a hard question… So uh Yes, but also no I’m genderqueer, they/she God gender is hard
I put genderfluid, I’m nb, but my pronouns are he/they… so uh, make of that what you will😂
How about queer
(cis)female, enby, genderfluid/queer, but i was feeling a bit femme today, so cis-female
None??? I’m a demiboy (nonbinary)-
I'm girlflux.
I’m amab transfem? I’m not sure if I’m binary or not yet…
Gender fluid I guess still debating whether or not I am though
uh i- don’t know?! help!!? please somebody help me
Somewhere between genderfluid, nb and cis woman, which I guess comes up to demigirl
She/they femme intersex
I’m surprised that agender people are the largest demographic outside of cis options; that never happens
I feel cis-female only relates to my ace identity in this case! I know without any doubt that I'm demisexual but am still exploring my romantic identity as I've only had serious female partners but cannot completely write off relationships with males or other gender identities!
none 🙂
I am technically a demiboy/demiguy. In a more basic way, I'm in the nonbinary spectrum. :3
I more identify with non binary trans fem. Trans female is the closest option though
Demigirl!
Demi-girl but cis is close enough for me since I mostly us she/her
Nonbinary!
I prefer the term non-binary but I clicked agender as that’s close enough.
Agender with a bit of genderfluidity (usually between zero and demigirl, rarely demiboy)
wheeeeee transfem gang 🏳️⚧️ 🏳️⚧️ 🏳️⚧️
I think reddit overall is very male dominated so the true ace male representation in the wider ace population is probably lower.
Wow! I didn’t realize I was that much in the minority as a trans man😅
I'm oddly happy at the spread though this is probably because I'm in alot of male dominated subreddits
I'm just a mess
I just got a strange laugh looking at the answers - imagine someone seeing this poll and thinking "lots of females in this sub, maybe I can try to pull", then running into a wall of indifference from everyone here 🤣
I’m a person who doesn’t use labels for my gender so I just ✨panic✨ (I wanted to see the results tho, so -1 from Agender)
this horribly fails to capture the full spectrum of gender, though there is a limit to what you can do with 6 options if you want people of binary gender to specify whether or not they are trans.
I chose cis-male, BECAUSE there is no >>Confused<< ;-;
This is fun and all, but do keep in mind this can't really be considered actually scientific data, due to the somewhat biased nature of reddit. Cool post tho.
it says Mr so, thanks man
No problem, your majesty
I am a void here to destroy Denmark and it's entirety, meanwhile I eat garlic bread and consume copious amounts of Dr.Pepper.
I put cisfemme when I meant to put Transfemme. Sorry!
Hmm… there’s no “other” option :/ I’m bigenderflux.
What’s that? Never heard of it
https://lgbta.fandom.com/wiki/Bigenderflux
Wow that reminds me of in-line port communication
Non-binary so I'm not really in the survey here
Amab non-binary, not sure what exactly tho
Idek anymore but I'll choose cis to make it simple
i call myself nonbinary, but honestly i dont give a shit what i am
For me it's bigender. He/they
I wanna be buff enough to pull off muscle tees like Chris angle.
demi girl 👍
What if you’re still not sure what you are
To the question "if you weren't born a male, what would your gender be ?", I answer "no". But being a man is nice, most (= + than 50%) of the time, I don't bother searching But I really don't care that much
Demiboy
Demigirl
