Any other gender diverse people here?

i think this counts as a special interest - of mine, anyway. I've met so many other people on the spectrum who are gender diverse in some way, and I'm always happy to connect.

By gender diverse I mean trans, intersex, genderqueer, gender questioning, agender, non-binary, and so on...

I'm genderless and trans female, I began transitioning six years ago in my 40s. Gender never really made any sense of my experience at all (though I have no problems with it working for other people), I just knew my body was supposed to be female, so I got it upcycled :-). I co-lead a non-binary support group in the South West, and kind of unofficially mentor younger trans and/or non-binary people, many of whom as I said are also on the spectrum.

  • Agreed I don't think there's such a thing as a male or female preserve as such anymore, which is good, and good that I feel I don;t have to be male to like railway locomotives or things with an engine.   
    I'm not sure what a non gender is I think the only one I read about was a female who had her boobs chopped off as she identified as they or genderless.  Tho I gather go in a toy shop you'll see "boys toys" and "girls toys" , tho I think they should be catergorised as type, rather than what sex they would traditionally appeal to!!!
