Does anyone else (specifically enbies) here experience, like, “situational gender”?
Because sometimes I will identify differently based on who I’m with, or I want certain gendered titles depending on the context. Like, around my friends, I feel completely gender neutral. But I also like to say that I’m my sibling’s “older sister.” But I also want my parents to refer to me as their “son.”
And these aren’t just to conform to anything, I just feel differently in relation to certain people in my life. I wouldn’t say I identify as “female” or “male”, but I do identify as an “older sister” and an “eldest son” and a “non-binary friend” and an “agender acquaintance” and a “trans classmate.”
I do have gendered titles, but they change based on the relationship I have with the person. I like being someone’s son, and I like being someone’s older sister. I like being both these things at once.
And when it comes to me by myself, I identify as anything and everything all at once.
Is this just a me thing? Am I weird for this? Does this even make any sense?
