enbyphoria!


Recommended Posts

This is a thread to view and share sources of nonbinary euphoria. 

 

This weekend, my husband told me about actor Emma Corrin (they/them) who recently came out as trans nonbinary. Looking at photos of them on Instagram brought me to tears of joy. I am grateful for their authenticity and visibility. I believe the enbyphoria I experienced was part Emma & part my husband, who has come a massively long way in accepting and supporting me.

Yay, @VidanjaliI love this thread already. Thanks for starting it. I've never heard that word before: Enbyphoria. It's almost got a song in one word. Like the song, "Maria" from West-Side Story. "I've just met a girl named Enbyphoria. And suddenly that name Will never be the same To me! Enbyphoria!"  OK, it does need an orchestra and choreograhy, but it's still cool. Enbyphoria should attract lots of stories and songs and photos like tthose above. I'll see you again.

This thread is awesome, I'm going to see if I can find anything to contribute.  I love it when there is validation in the public eye for non-binary folks.

 

Oh, and enbyphoria is a new one on me as well, any day you learn new something is a good day, so thank you.

 

All the best,

Lol, @Davie more like "I've just met a gender-nonspecific person named enbyphoria" 😁 I'm sure Bernstein could have accommodated all those syllables somehow... someday... somewhere... 😏

 

I may have coined the term "enbyphoria". Just popped into my head. But who knows - there's nothing new under the sun.

Yep. Twitter search turned up only 1 defunct tweeter, probably a typo. It'll be word of the year in 2023. We're going to have our own driverless car! Humor will be our superpwer!

Last night, I was at the dog park & chatting with a new comer. A nice guy. The conversation turned to "you just never know what life has in store". I wound up sharing a brief timeline of things I've struggled with in my life - homelessness, poverty, chronic illness, etc. (nothing about queerness) - and my life's unexpected turns. I commented that sometimes, one never knows what strength they can potentially muster unless they're faced with a challenge. And often, we can be resentful of having to be so strong, but what is the alternative? He shared some of his own struggles which he surmounted & another story which was inspiring. 

 

Anyways, he was unexpectedly very encouraging and validating which was nice. At one point he said, "you are an impressive lady." There was this slow-motion split second where I thought: suck it up, or say something...heck,why not say something. I just smiled and said: I prefer "person" over "lady". He hesitated for a moment. Maybe he had his own internal slow-motion split second debate. He then nodded and said yeah, okay. Then, later in our conversation he correctly referred to me as a person without making any big deal about it. 

 

It felt great. I'm finding that sometimes there are simple ways to affirm yourself which don't entail coming out or any major explanation or need to make oneself so vulnerable - like "I prefer this over that." If someone wants to argue with something you've expressed as your "preference", even though you know your identity is deeper than that, then one might point out the absurdity. For example, imagine if you met someone and said, "call me James", and the other person said, "you seem more like a Jimmy. I'll call you Jimmy". They would cleary only be demonstrating their own egotism. It's not a perfect analogy, but that's the spirit of the idea.

I don't know when you're going to bed. But I'm pretty tired tonight, so I may be enbyphoria.

Non-Binarily

 

Don’t shame dysphoria.
Hate me, non-binarily.
It’s diversity for idiots,
inclusion for crazies,
your proof of mania,
laziness whomever
poem to clueless,
or foreverness
to end a time.
I love you.

A long lost friend recently reached out to me. The other day we caught up on the phone for 2 1/2 hours. I told her I'm trans nonbinary. Her response: Don't take this the wrong way (me: curious - what ever might she imagine I'd take the wrong way), but that does not surprise me at all. I laughed and said I take that exactly the right way - I find the fact you're not surprised very affirming. She went on to say she always felt there was something different and special about me, but couldn't put her finger on it. She said, you were just you, my friend. Love!

      To me there isn't that much difference other the measurement, which side the zipper is on and men's pants have bigger pockets.

      I hope this is not stupid question..I have yet to start n not sure if doc will approve..but once you start growing buds n such, can you still wear forms to get to the size you were?   I'm a dad, so when I start blossoms they will be smaller for a long time n probably need surgical augmented..that's fine. I don't want to go ddd to aa to ddd..   any ideas?   thank you

      I like them too.  We had them growing up.  But my father's family were Swedes.

      Oh my!  I guess it just goes to show how different tastes can be. Since we don't live near the ocean, Seafood is a rare luxury. We absolutely love pickled herring! Especially my husband and my GF, I guess it's a Ferman/Russian cultural thing.  But most of the kids like it too, and a jar wouldn't last in the pantry for long 😆
    • awkward-yet-sweet
      I think the key to that is just not minding eating the same thing repeatedly. Since we produce a lot of our own food here, we end up eating what is in season at the moment. So, when the yellow squash is ripening, we end up fixing squash 20 different ways. When the strawberries are ready, we eat lots of strawberries. It's kind of a different mindset to eat in season when it has become such a part of American culture but the grocery store has everything we want all the time. Like grapes in December.  My family does even things out a little bit by having a greenhouse so we have some fresh things in the winter, but it's not a 100% fix.

      My brothers and I had to eat what was on the plate.  All of it, and nothing else.  Pickiness was not tolerated.  Some of our least favourite were liver and onions, sauerkraut, and especially rollmops (pickled herring).  We finally protested enough to persuade our mother not to serve rollmops, though she kept a jar in the pantry for years afterwards, as a threat if we didn't behave.

      I'll go first.  My favorite team is the Yankees.  Loved them since I was a kid.  I was born in NYC so, yeah.  I know everyone loves to hate them, and that's OK.  I just love baseball in general.  It's a game of traditions, strategy, power, grace and skill.   Play Ball!!  ⚾   Carolyn Marie

      I guess you do have a good point. It's just hard to try and not have the same meals over and over again.

      Hi   I’ll weigh in on being picky about food.  Yes, and I was brought up that way.  We didn’t have to eat everything our parents ate.  They had a number of things they ate that they figured we wouldn’t eat, an acquired taste things or one or the other didn’t like them too.   even as an adult there are many things I won’t eat.  In my defense, there are different things my wife won’t eat.   the weird thing is that after being in E, my tastes have changed.  Sweet, sour, salty or bland, if I eat or drink too much of any one thing and I have to counter act it.   Willow

      I have shared my doses and levels a lot and no one has said anything. Yeah I put alarms on my phone to make sure I don't miss a dose. I tend to forget a lot of stuff on what needs to be done. I have been also using the calendar on my phone a lot. I missed an appointment because I didn't put it in my calendar.

      Feeling better than I did yesterday
    • MaeBe
      It's official. My doctor wants me retested after the last results (too high). The test, that she scheduled, was likely too close to the dose. She did tell me to keep the increased dose instead of reverting to my old one, probably because my "too high" wasn't that high. I don't know what the forum's stance is on results, knowing full well the rules against sharing dosage, so I'll keep those under wraps until I know if it's OK to share those. Less to say, it was over the range she feels comfortable with by about 50%, but taken a day earlier than the midpoint value she was expecting. Grains of salt everywhere!   Of course I messed everything up too, missing my dose for the first time, yesterday. I had to re-reschedule the lab I setup yesterday to Monday from Saturday after taking my shot this morning to avoid the same issue with the testing. I woke up and thought, "Thursday, what do I have to do for work today? OH -crap-, IT'S THURSDAY! I missed my shot yesterday!"   Anyhoo. Question for the ladies: does anyone else get a mild zen-like high after their shots/doses? My brain feels lighter and I'm happier and I feel a lot more girlie this morning. 💃

      I'm into my fourth month of HRT and just titrated up in dosage after my last checkup. This is my life. 🤭   I have yet to grow out of my B cup bras, but I have noticed more fullness, having started with gynecomastia. I am seeing less gapping in bras with my right breast, which has always been smaller than my left. My areolae are slightly pronounced/projected now, that are larger but not vastly greater in circumference, and I have noticed little to no nipple changes beyond their painful sensitivity.
