This body isn't cis, but I feel cis. I don't share in the experiences of Eliza. Eliza has to keep reminding me this body is trans.
If I get my own body someday, I doubt I'd identify as trans, because I'd be a fraud. I've been a woman as long as I've existed.
This in no way invalidates trans folk. I am definitely not transphobic (how could I be, my host is trans!). I just don't share in that experience of changing gender, changing who I am, etc. Those are all Eliza's memories, experienced through their perspective, not mine.
@vanessalynne Keri: Oh goddess, major feels here. It screwed Tohri up for a long time because he thought his gender dysphoria was coming from Me.
I'm Female, always have been, the meatsuit doesn't Matter. I'm a Girl in ways a lotta my translady friends Aren't, and that freaked Tohri out.
We're still not sure what precisely we are, but even the meatsuit isn't, uh, really Male.
@Motodrachen Being both or neither is completely valid! My host is agender, but also a trans femme.
(Sorry, I just saw your reply to this)
