Gender Queeries @genderqueeries - Tumblr Blog

Hi first off THANK YOU for this blog I'm so happy right now s2g but secondly: Your theme is kinda preventing me from using all awesome blog features bc I'm on mobile and when I try to zoom in the navigation vanishes to the right...

Okay, I have no idea how to fix that but I will try.

ellis kind of sounds like eloise? does that help? c:

My boyfriend recently told me that in 2015 he wants to buy some dresses and skirts and play around with presentation. He asked me if that was alright and I said of course and that I loved him very much, but I could tell that it was a difficult thing for him to tell me. I want him to know how much I support him. I know his taste and sizes pretty well, so I was thinking of buying him a really nice skirt for Christmas and having him open it when we were alone. Is that a good and respectful idea?

That sounds like a lovely gesture :)

I didn't realize Ennis was a "real" name (because I have an OC named Ennis, in a fantasy setting) but if I'm ever brave enough to go by another name that's what I'm going to use thank you so much!!! I was having an awful gender day and reading that really improved things :)

:D I'm glad that helped!

Hopefully you feel better now, and good luck in your gender journey.

could Augie/August be added to the list of unisex/GN names please? :)

Yep! I'm guessing Augie is short for August?

Ashton(nne) can be a gender neutral name as well! c:

Thanks, I'll add it.

gender neutral name to add to your list if you want: scout! (tbh it's from brooklyn, burning by steve brezenoff which is a super cool book everyone should read)

I think there's a girl called Scout in To Kill a Mockingbird, too, but I haven't actually read it.

Thanks, I'll add it.

How do I change Eloise ( a feminine name ) into something neutral? It's not a very common name so I can't find anything D:

As in, a more neutral shortening? If I'm pronouncing it right, you could shorten it to Lou.

Or as in a neutral name similar to Eloise? The nearest I can think of is Eilliot.

Followers, any ideas?

hi! just wanted to make a suggestion of a name you could add to the unisex names list: "aran", a unisex irish and catalan name

Thank you

Hi, just wanted to pop in and tell you that you have a wonderful blog. I can't get over how lovely you are and how amazingly diligent you are when it comes to answering questions from your followers. I found your blog while researching neutral pronouns for a book I'm writing. Your post on pronouns was super helpful. Thank you! Would it be alright for me to come back to you if I have any future questions about gender neutrality and pronouns?

Thank you :D I'm way behind on answering questions, I have pages and pages still :s

Of course, ask as many questions as you have!

ok so I consider myself genderqueer but I still want to use the pronouns she/her, is that ok?

That's fine! There aren't rules about which pronouns you are and aren't allowed to use. If she/her fits you best, she/her is your pronouns.

I really do apologize if this comes off as rude, but isn't being polygender and genderfluid the same thing? I mean, they both move between genders. I'm just so confused, and again, I sincerely apologize if this question insults anyone.

I think there's a lot of blurriness between various words, but genderfluid implies changing genders, and polygender could be changing or more than one gender at once. It all depends on which word you feel most comfortable with.

Is it okay to follow this blog if I'm not non-binary? I'm interested in being an informed ally, but I also want to respect safe spaces because everyone deserves that.

Yes, thats fine :)

Those "Lesbian" binders not safe!

Those “Les Lesbian Tomboy Chest Binders” that yourmanwatson recommended are actually basically just as bad as ACE bandages. Sorry the link is a little FTM-centric, but it’s got the important information. http://for-transmen.tumblr.com/post/95885023260/if-youve-been-looking-to-bind-whether-youre I know it’s a struggle between dysphoria and money, but the risk of injury isn’t worth it in my opinion.

Good information to have - I had no idea!

Underworks sells a binder called the compression sports bra that's marketed to women and is modeled by a female model so even tho its on a binder website you might be able to ask your parents for that. But it might not get you flat if you're over a b

in response to go-getyourgunn's ask: try ordering a binder on amazon. they have some super cheap but still decent quality ones. the best one i've found is listed under "Binder Women's Les Lesbian Tomboy Chest Binder Slim Fit Vest." This line caters to smaller-boobed people, though, just be forewarned. I've heard they're binders are more uncomfortable/less effective for larger-boobed folks.

Would it make any sense if I said my identity and sexuality were both "I don't really care"? I just feel like labelling either of them would devalue the fact that I don't really have a clue myself.

That's fine, anon :) you don't have to know or define everything.
