My recommendation: Go for it. You would NOT be the first AFAB person to use drag as a way to express masculinity. It's not appropriation if you're already part of that culture -- and you are. The last thing the non-gender-normative community needs is artificial lines drawn to segregate parts of the community from itself, when we've been trying so hard to bring them together.

I knew that's what you meant and that's exactly what I was talking about. The overexaggerated femininity of drag queens ends up emphasizing masculinity because that's the cultural association people have with drag queens.

I hate when people ("friends") think they're being "funny" by making jokes about my asexuality. Like how I'll find a man (or woman) and move away and have a family and leave them all alone when I get my life together. Or "joke" about how I just am not interested in them, as though I am actually interested in all other men.
Like....we've been over this a million times and I am not amused. | ||||

And the concept of "I can still find men and women visually appealing without wanting them" seems to be extremely difficult.

Same! >.< Ugh, mega big feels! When I see shirtless buff men, all I think about is how awesome they must be at everything, like, champion yo. Not, "Oh wow, what a hunk! I'd tap that." I only wish I had some muscles like that... ;u; and can lift a frickin' couch. But I have snowman arms. xD

*throws a party for their fellow Aces* I'm a bit more complicated, because I'm also Demipanromantic.
I use She/Her and They/Them pronouns.

That sounds...potentially very complicated. What is demipanromantic? (I'm too lazy to look it up myself.)

Lol...my train of thought sometimes...
*sees the word party* -> will there be cake? -> *thinks about the cake called "better than sex cake"* -> but every cake is better than sex for asexuals... | ||||

It's a combination of "demiromantic" (only finds romantic attraction in people once they've already established a close bond otherwise) and "panromantic" (has no gender preference in romantic relationships).

Thanks Coda!
Ahhhh...I kinda want to make cake now, but I don't have all the stuff for it. Probably will just stick with my original plan and do sugar cookies today. Just gotta clear off a table and wash a few things. | ||||

Fuck. Just got up and discovered that I accidentally left a skein of yarn out. And now it's a mess of yarn. And part of it has been chewed through, but I can't tell if it was only chewed through or if Batty actually managed to eat some of it.
I'm so mad at myself right now for not double-checking before going to bed! | ||||

My Achilles finally calmed down enough to let me do at least a tiny bit of walking to look for decorations. But clearance sales already started apparently, so most things have been cleared out.
Got my dog a new toy and she absolutely loves it, at least. | ||||
