I’ve never said it openly, but for me the worst thing about Harry Potter isn’t all the bad and problematic stuff in the story for me the worst part is the moral of the hero ending up as the magical equivalent of a cop. Like… Harry working for the Ministry of Magic a.k.a. the Establishment just makes me want to throw a rock at his head. How can you possibly give a story such a bourgeois ending?

God I hate AFAB and AMAB. Y’all usually just mean genitals (AND you use it to lump in the endo stuff) so it pisses me off.

Im just going to use born penis haver and born with a testosterone dominated endocrine system. Never call me amab when you mean those it pisses me off. I am BPH and BTDES.

I was not assigned male by my parents or most of society. The way I was treated was a mostly positive experience of “do whatever” and “third gendering”(stemming from me doing whatever). Then i put myself into the girl box. (Before realizing i like boy box too) I was not assigned a male role in most respects, I was assigned an androgynous one.

i'm home and i went on a 2 hour rant to my nana about aurors and how they're the ones who help enforce the mistreatment and the wrong doings of the ministry, foot soldiers to the cause - people who HAVE TO sell a piece of their souls because if they don't, its a job that'll kill them , it's a must in order to survive such an intense , demanding , corrupt work place .

AMAB/AFAB are far too often used to basically just ask or tell what genitals people have, and it has always pissed me off.

The thing is, not everyone is AFAB/AMAB and I don’t mean genital wise.

I am AAAB (assigned androgynous at birth). I was raised and treated not really like a boy, but like my parents were too afraid to deal with the concept of gender existing. So the only gendered enforcement mechanism I grew up with was “no skirts or dresses” and “no being a woman”. My mom identified as a tomboy and didn’t really act very feminine in general. My dad was more feminine than her. Honestly they both probably aren’t cis if they were honest. Societally I had the idea that “i am a man” so i thought of myself as male. But i didn’t learn masculinity. I didn’t learn femininity. I was just a person and my gender was secondary.

And then at 15 i discovered trans people existed and I put myself into the only box i thought fit that existed at the time, which was trans woman. Which i thought meant i cannot also be a man.

It took me until 28 or so to realize I was bigender. Because of the erasure that bigender people face. A lot of trans women are so adamant that “we are not men” that I thought being a trans woman ment i could not be a man. Some trans women are men. Deal with it.

Becoming and living as a man is hard because i only assumed i was a man while actually being androgynous for the first 15 years of my life. So I don’t get what it means for me to be a man because I’ve never tried to be one.

So please just… stop using AMAB and AFAB to mean “penis and vagina”.
