Kind of as a follow on from my previous post because im bored and the heat is still making me delirious
This is a friendly reminder that you dont owe anyone a perfect performance of your identity
You should be you however you want to be and that is fabulous
Luke Manning is no less masculine when he is Luke Wommaning and everyone else is the same
AJs identity didnt change jjst because he was wearing a wig and feminine clothing to play maureen
Sam literally makes an amazing sheep, that doesnt make him an animal
Tom is a gangly tall man (affectionate) and yet plays an amazing butch lesbian. And not only that his partner Pip is a fantabulous enby drag king proving that you can perform and look however if youre happy
identity is a construct and a costume we wear to be ourselves and its handmade to every person
In the wise words of a fic I read once (paraphrased because I cant remember it exactly)
'Identity is like owning a property, some people are handed the keys and dont have to think about it at all. Whereas some are sat in a pile of a thousand keys with no idea which one opens the door. There is no manual to tell you how to find the correct key, you just keep trying to find rhe one that fits'
You cant be yourself wrong. No one is coming around with a checklist to see if you human like youre supposed to
Aslong as you are happy that is all that matters <33
(Ofc this doesnt apply to me and I need to be perceived exactly as how people want me to otherwise im a failure but we ignore this)
