@benhamill@witches.town Well, I'm not sure I have any good answers about it. ;) When I say 'not a person' it relates to the specifics of my identification as toy/submissive/whatever, and somewhat in relation to my autism-spectrum feelings/status. Which is not to say that anyone else who is ASD or submissive is 'not a person' either; it's just one of those things I can say that feels meaningful and expressive to me, in the same way, for instance, as "I'm not male or female'
@benhamill@witches.town It's a matter of expectation, saying 'just so you know, I can't necessarily live up to the standards of being a fully agentic human person indefinitely', if there were an (admittedly very contrived) situation where I could be assured a safe and fulfilling existence, that required me to give up legal personhood, it would not take me hard to decide; I'd even take that giving-up as part of the upside!
