If you're so willing to misgender yourself for clout why don't you just detransition?
How do you define "misgender"?
If I define a woman as an adult human female, and I am an adult human female, am I being misgendered if someone calls me she or a woman?
If I define a transman as a woman who uses medical measures to appear male in society, and I am a woman who uses medical measures to appear male in society, (i.e., I want to appear male in my day-to-day life) am I being misgendered if someone calls me he? Or she? Does my desire to appear male mean someone is incorrect if they refer to me as female?
If I don't believe in innate gender nor have a gender identity nor identify as a gender, is it even possible for me to be misgendered?
How do you define detransition?
In my life, I appear a certain way, and people address me according to how they perceive me. After 2yr 7mo on testosterone and a double mastectomy, that means people address me as a male. I do not announce preferred pronouns, and I never have.
What actions would I need to take in order to detransition? If I took those actions: What would change about my life? Would my appearance change? Would my behavior change? Would the way I think about myself change? Would my happiness level change?
So, what should I call myself?
Consider these four axes for women, I could think of 2 more but I'll keep it shorter:
1. Dysphoric vs. Not dysphoric.
2. Medically transitioned vs. Not medically transitioned.
3. Says "I identify as trans" vs. says "I do not identify as trans."
4. Says "I do not identify as a woman" (ex. identifies as a man or nonbinary) vs. says "I do identify as a woman" (believes in gender identity and the concept of cisgender) vs. "I am a woman because I am female." (does not believe in gender identity)
There are many different ways to combine these categories. For example, a woman who is not dysphoric, identifies as trans, and has not medically transitioned. Or, a woman who is dysphoric, medically transitioned, but does not identify as trans / formerly identified as trans. Or a woman who is dysphoric, identifies as trans, has transitioned, and genuinely believes she's a man.
What do I have in common with women in all the possible combinations of categories? What experiences do we share? What is different between us, or what different experiences have we had? Are similarities and differences more significant when they involve physical categories (1 and 2) vs. categories that rely on verbally proclaiming something or a belief (3 and 4)? Are there patterns of experiences that arise when we split these categories into physical and verbal? How much does simply Saying something or Believing something change a person's Experiences?
Hope I've given you some things to think about!
