I... get this weird worry that my speech patterns in online spaces make me sound like a boy? Especially when meeting new people? Is that completely ridiculous?
@starkatt I mean, I can't honestly say that that couldn't have effected me, except for how you didn't have this avatar when I first saw you? Plus I tend to personally typecast anyone who doesn't have a boy for an avatar as a girl or enby friend here on mastodon. I'm probably a bad metric, honestly...
