Psst I got your ask and I LOVE it but I can't respond to it yet because my internet is ass, and apparently ten pictures is too much for it to handle 🙁🙁 <//3 When I'm home from my trip tho I'll respond to it for sure!!
While I'm here I figured maybe I should ask some questions, those are super fun! I was wondering if theres a specific transid (or anything adjacent) you find most interest in and why? Whether you identify with it or not
Also another one, is there a specific transid (or anything adjacent) you would like to see but haven't been able to find/have made?

Hiii catbatponyyyy no worries !!
I’m still fairly new here so honestly I dunno!! I’m still exploring!! Really I feel like the best way to answer this would to just describe my most prevalent TransID/etc. feelings that are part of what lead me here and I’ll bet there’s some term out there for them lol
Aside from already feeling like my gender and sexuality are kind of specific and vague and all over the place all at once due to anything from being indecisive to being plural to just simply being complex as humans are, there’s lots of things that would make me feel more like myself!! I think some of it could be related to what I’m like in headspace, but being a frontlocked host who’s been here since pre-system discovery, I’m not really sure WHAT I’m like in headspace. Some of these things I’ll describe are things I already use other terms for that aren’t TransIDs because either I knew them first or relate to them more or whatever the case so yeah
This might take a while because identity and labels and such are one of my biggest special interests lol, guess it makes sense I ended up radqueer adjacent
Labels I do already have! I am Queer and Transmasc to put it the most simply and with a comfortable amount of vagueness, but I use plenty of more specific labels for my gender and orientation all the time, honestly I basically collect them for fun at this point. My main one for my gender is Genderfaunet, which is when one is fluid between male, partly male, masculine aligned, neutral/neutral aligned, and feminine aligned or partly female genders, but never feels fully female. I’m most commonly somewhere between male and non-binary with varying degrees of how much I feel which, but I do occasionally feel more feminine !!
I guess TW for the following? I suppose while certain topics aren’t as “taboo” or anything in the RQ community, they should still be taken into considerations as triggers, which honestly I don’t see a lot of in this community and while I understand not wanting to demonize things by implying they’re “bad” or something to stay away from, these things still are triggering or uncomfortable for some people and I think that should be respected!! So yeah, mentions paras and possibly abusive dynamics ahead, I’m talking about attraction in the next part
For sexuality/orientation, I’m mainly attracted to men, especially men who at least look a bit older. If he doesn’t give off the vibe of at LEAST a young dad or uncle with a little bit of chub, buff, and/or scruff, then I probably won’t like him as much lol, but at the end of the day I have been attracted to quite a variety of people. I find that so far when it comes to any paras (other than AAM which I guess I can’t really be anymore as a young adult. Though I saw someone say they identify as AAM in the same way a trans guy might identify as a lesbian and that was real as hell LMFAO) I either only or mostly experience them towards fiction or in like roleplay scenarios. Like I enjoy lots of kink scenarios, Dom/Sub dynamics, role plays, stuff like that, and I have been attracted to or aroused by things like incest, grooming, rape, abuse, minors, animals, etc. when they’re fictional or in a fictional scenario, I haven’t really irl? Except for maybe some form of objectum but again I’m still exploring so idrk !! I mean I suppose I still have paras in the sense of having kinks and fetishes and such but even most of those I haven’t exactly actually tried out irl so it may be the same case for those (I’m inexperienced, single, and some of them can be kinda dangerous yk) so I guess in that sense I consider a lot of my paras to be more ficto-paras than just straight up paras, but I have occasionally thought about being trans some paras for different reasons
For other stuff that’s actually more in the TransID realm, I’ve been identifying as alterhuman for a few years now. It’s kind of hard to pin down a label there because I’ve never particularly felt like one specific thing. I may feel some things more often or intensely than others but honestly I guess I kinda feel more like a shapeshifter than anything, but less like a shapeshifter as its own like species or whatever, and more like a shapeshifter as a label? Idk if anyone else uses it like this but honestly when it comes to species or in some cases of fictionkin or factkin or anything, identities, I sort of more feel like I CAN be ANYTHING, I just might feel more connected to some things than others or I connect to different things in different ways if that makes sense. Like I feel like in a lot of ways I kinda transcend just being one thing, or even just being ME, whatever that really means. I feel like transcend makes it sound more grand than it is. Idk. It’s more just a like. I don’t really fit into boxes super well when it comes to this stuff
If I were to be able to fully customize my physical base form though, I’d likely have unnaturally colored hair, probably pink cause that’s my favorite, color changing eyes, small fangs, more freckles, likely animal ears and a tail of some kind, maybe even wings or horns. I’d be skinnier and taller than I am, but still somewhat short and chubby. I’d be more masculine than I am, like more body hair and squared proportions and stuff but definitely still on the more feminine end of masculine, you know? Idk really I’d just love the ability to shapeshift.
There’s plenty of TransHobbies and TransSkills and stuff I’d have because I mean I want to have those hobbies and skills but currently don’t because of whatever limitations, or just not getting around to it.
Race/ethnicity I don’t really care to change, if anything I’m kinda apathetic towards race/ethnicity. I don’t and probably never will get why it’s such an important and like idk boundary creating thing in the world. I mean I get why it is with racism and stuff and yeah there’s some differences in how our bodies work and whatnot but outside of that idk I just kinda view it the same as sex and gender, it makes us different but so does everything else and I feel like people should have the right to change how they identify/look if they want to. At most I feel connected to some of my heritage, at least what I’ve been told it is, and would like to be more connected to it, but that’s it
Age I have very mixed feelings about, always have, so I’d have to do a lot more thinking if I were to want to pick a TransAge label of any kind.
TransAbility stuff I also have a lot of feelings to untangle about
Idk this is rambly and doesn’t even really answer your question sorry lol again I’m still pretty new here and figuring stuff out. I think a lot of TransIDs and other labels are cool but there’s just so many down to the most specific things or seemingly…not less important but like I feel there’s a difference between things like TransRace or TransAbility versus like TransHobby, you know? You get what I’m saying? Idk. Anyways they’re all cool and interesting and I think all this stuff is really cool and interesting but honestly I don’t know enough and I’m so indecisive that this is a deceptively hard question for me lol
Thanks for the ask thoughhhhh I love getting asks I hope I start getting more soon
