Finally found a way to post video

Alright...I was trying to post audio or video and it was just not working out for me. I instead put a video on photobucket so...if people could respond here that would be great. Basically, I'm seen as female very very close to all the time and I wanted to see how people here would read me based on my face and voice.

Camera is shakey because I had to hold the dang thing.

Urmm.. I vote hard to determine/look at other things. Your face & voice are prolly 80-90% male imho... voice especially, but the glasses, earrings, and styled hair are kinda feminine or at least gay guy

I'm terrible at gendering people though so.........

<3 Aly

ps: nice job holding the camera =) //impressed... mine'd be earthquake quality

Pointing out why would also be super. My earrings are 00g plugs which are boss. Glasses I looked through a bunch to pick those out.

Anyways, I'm kind of feminine. Identify as genderqueer, so all cool.

Sorry Kieran,

I'd say that your voice is quite good, your face and glasses look nice and fem as well... The hair might be the one thing I would even slightly question, but it's not anything that would stand out, just me wanting to play with it and give you a new style :D

Yea but you're kinda looking at it the wrong way. I'm assigned female at birth, genderqueer, and want to be read as male more often than female. I want to not br bothered using the men's restrooms for example.

SORRY! I completely missed that... In that case, I'd say you could pass with everything, the glasses are trendy enough to be unisex and your voice is definitely passable. Your hairstyle could be male, little on the fence, but I probably would think twice based on all your other traits presenting as male.

Sorry I totally missed that in your post.

Your face a little bit female but so are some cis gendered guys, the hair, not sure how to style but I like it. Your voice is awsome, very masculine!!!!

Voice could go either way for me, but your laugh is definitely edging towards male. Your face is feminine, but not female, I'd have to give you a double take. Glasses? No idea. Eyebrows are cool though, nice a neutral. Hair is pre'y neutral too.

So I'd think, since most things go either way, it'd be the feminine face, D:! Uhmm, not sure how to help? Do you shave at all? Beards make it easier to lean towards male in binary situations.

I shave my face about once a month. The hair I do have is almost non existent...with a few random stray whiskers which unshaven looks messy.

Hi Kieran.

When I first saw you I thought hard to determine and if I didn't hear you speak I think I would maybe lean towards female after a few secs of thinking based on your softer facial features and maybe your hairstyle as well. But I am actually not quite sure. Would depend on your chest, body shape etc. as well.

But soon as you started to speak your appeared male to me. Say I was a store clerk or something and you were asking me a question I would think guy soon as I heard your voice. Your sound completely male to me. So yeah... voice all male... Your eyebrows look male to me too and your glasses strike me as a guy's glasses. I think the only things that make me think female are your facial features and your haircut. But I'd have to say I'd be convinced you were male after I heard you speak.

Yeah... if you wish to appear male I'd say you're definitely not doing too bad :)

Talon.

      Hello we are The lake. So called because This One has not determined a name for oneself but has in a way created an environment to try out multiple names as different people. Currently Some of us use she/her pronouns and one uses he/him. We hope to learn more about being transgender and the intricacies involved. Once again it is a pleasure to make your acquaintance and we hope to be of further help in the future.

      https://www.nbcnews.com/nbc-out/out-politics-and-policy/18-states-sue-biden-administration-transgender-worker-protections-rcna152239     When the R's are in power they love having the EEOC promulgate rules favoring employers.  But when the D's are in power, they just hate it when the EEOC makes or enforces rules that favor employee rights; most especially trans employee rights.  Then it becomes "government overreach."  Funny how that works out.    Carolyn Marie

      Wholeheartedly agree.  Whether a compliment is backhand or forehand, I take it gladly.  They are offered rarely enough these days.    Carolyn Marie

      Wow, a shop that actually respects a customer's truck?  That seems like a miracle!  My husband does most of his own work, because he really, REALLY hates people who mess with an interior, with grease spots or footprints.  His personal truck is old, but super clean.  And since he's the transportation manager for his company, he's pretty picky about people respecting company equipment.  "Take care of it, and it will take care of you" is the motto.  Drivers should be able to go through a DOT Level 1 inspection without worry. 
    • awkward-yet-sweet
      Literally the word means "hatred of women" and so I don't think that's quite the right description for what you encountered.  Possibly chauvinism?  Or maybe just not wanting to bother somebody he figured wasn't interested or capable of doing the job?  Who knows.   But on the other hand...be glad you're passing

      Finally found a site that gives the definition of defemination as a process of loss of feminine characteristics or continued loss of them.  Not a word I would use every day, although I can see where it would be a problem for some who value those feminine characteristics.  Yes I have seen it happen and now get the idea, and yes, not in so many words, but yes I have been up against others who do put down my femininity as being a pseudo female at the most polite and I cannot use the words hear for what it is at the worst.   Online, there is little to do about it except leave and block the people who do it and the places it happens, since it affects you much more heavily and negatively than it does the person doing it, and you need freedom from the stress.  The rules here which our "powers that be", namely the staff say we do not put up with members denying the authentic identity of other members. 
    • VickySGV
      I still maintain my "male" skills and almost have to laugh when that sort of thing happens to me with Cis males, and it does happen.  On the other side there, I have activities with the Trans community  here where I live including Trans Men who love to show off their new lives.  I have had a couple come over to my house and I have done some shop teaching that is always fun.  When they offer to help me by doing "male stuff" in a group, I do not take it as misogyny .

      This guy asked me to help with his tire.  So when I turned around and he saw that I'm a woman he's like,  oh nevermind

      I think that’s an important point. In my case, I’ve found transitioning to be such a relief and a joy that I have no difficulty focussing on the positives. Maybe in your case you could make a practice of noting when you are gendered correctly? Do you keep a journal? I find doing so is major help.   After saying I rarely get misgendered, it actually happened to me yesterday in a local store. After recovering from my shock (the salesman called me “brother”, which to me is about as bad as it gets) I wrote my first complaint letter to a business w/r/t misgendering. That felt good. I also reflected that, to a degree, for those of us who don’t pass, I think gendering is correctly can take a conscious effort. Some Folks seem to automatically see me as feminine, others have to work at it. So if you’re often surrounded by people who have no desire to work at it, that may exacerbate your problem.

      I don’t know why anyone would go to the effort of advocating for trans folks only to charge people to read their articles. It seems so counterproductive, and I seriously doubt they’re making more than pocket money out of it. 
    • KathyLauren
      Oh, how I wish we were over-reacting!  But I don't think we are.  The danger is under-reacting. 
    • Ivy
      I understand your feelings. I have the same fears.  NC has made a swing to the right as well, and I'm not optimistic.  I want to tell myself I'm over reacting.  But seeing what these people are  saying, and doing when they do get into power can't be dismissed.  It's proof of what they will do if they take over the federal government. I'm getting kinda old now anyway.  It took me over 60 years to get here, and I'm not going back.  I suppose they can revert my gender markers, but I will still be legally Ivy.  And I have every intention of dying as Ivy Anna.  If I can't find my hormones somehow, I'll do without.  The physical changes I do have are permanent.   Trans people have always existed.
