If I can't beat 'em...

I'm going to put my 'gender' as male now. Going to 'live a man' but I am not going to change my clothes, not that I wear skirts much anyway. I will still style my hair and wear makeup because I will not be defined.

So I'm going to tell me DH and children tonight. I'm not sure if DH will accept that he is now gay.

Any one want to out their inner man and join me on my journey?

I'm going to put my gender as 'male' from now on too.

I'm going to take my top half of clothes completely off at the slightest hint of sun and let my nipples, man boobs and beer belly hang out freely for the whole world to enjoy.

I'm going to start spreading my legs wide on public transport to accommodate my imaginary massive cock.

I'm going to start shouting "nice tits" out of van windows at any woman under the age of 30 or who shows the merest hint of skin above waist level. They love it really, it's a compliment.

And I'll start telling women to "cheer up" in the street without any fear of getting punched in the face.

Can't wait.

I am going to start sulking every time someone contradicts me. And stop apologising for anything and start saying 'well, that's YOUR fault'.
I am also going to be stunningly mediocre at my job, and get promoted.
It'll be great!

I'm putting myself down as male in the next census. (It's on my bucket list).

Looking forward to the census result as having 95% male in the UK.

So with you on this. My children will just shrug and say ok.

However, I once threatened to go the parents evening dressed as a Victorian Lady. They were appalled and the rooms were tidied instantly.

Recently I took to charge walking without ever giving way to any hapless pedestrians in my path. The expressions have been rather fun to observe.

I'm going to stuff my now redundant tights down my duke and sit legs akimbo on the train. Think I may film it and upload to Youtube too

I'm pretty good at bragging about my achievements, so, think I'm going to make an awesome man! And, I am one of those people who can walk through a crowd without being barged....so, was I ever a woman at all?!

Elendon · 04/09/2017 14:51

I'm going to buy male knickers. And stuff sweets down them.

Meanwhile, I'm going to piss all over the floor and not give a damn.

Tamatoa · 04/09/2017 14:52

Cross post! Let's hope we don't walk the same streets eh, assigned, we'd collide and then have to fight!

AssignedPerfectAtBirth · 04/09/2017 14:56

Wearing trousers [tick]
No make-up [tick]
No bra [tick]
Work in techy area of IT [tick]

OK, chaps, just call me Dave. Drinks are on me as soon as that manly payrise comes through.

Here is a handy man name generator.

You can call me Raoul. My pronouns today are He/Him/His/Mine

AssignedPerfectAtBirth · 04/09/2017 15:11

My name is Justin

Also going to change my surname as my current is simply not hard enough. Possibilities are:

Case
Time
Any other suggestions?

Yes me too. So many people telling me to man up, I've actually gone and done it. So far it's great. Just sitting on the sofa wearing a dress, like before, but my feelings are totally manly.

Popchyk · 04/09/2017 15:17

I am Colin and I am IN.

My self-awareness will evaporate and I will join threads on Feminism and Women's Rights and tell them that their experiences are wrong and that they've just misunderstood what we men are all about. If challenged, I will go whining to MNHQ about ad-hominem attacks.

I will then chunter on for ages about myself and provide great detail about my tedious life, and have no regard for the actual point of the thread.

Under no circumstances will I ever post in other parts of Mumsnet (the name Mumsnet is so sexist to us men by the way and why aren't those awful feminists up in arms about that rather than complaining about male violence?). Hypocrites.

How do you know those people with tits identify as women, though? Wouldn't accidentally want to compliment a man, right? That'd be gay!

Not in the UK, so won't be able to put my gender as male in the census, but I applaud your bravery! Be your true selves!

Elendon · 04/09/2017 15:17

My male name is Finn.

Gileswithachainsaw · 04/09/2017 15:21

How would this work would I have to grab my own arse at work?

rizlett · 04/09/2017 15:22

My name is Justin Slightly?

AssignedPerfectAtBirth · 04/09/2017 15:22

Right all you lurkers out there. Man up. Or make my dinner and suck my man clit.

And don't expect me to defend you if you stay female. You made your choices. Life is tough if you are a man

Off to join the MRAs

Actually scratch that Justin Assigned - I think Justin Sideways is much better.

ErrolTheDragon · 04/09/2017 15:25

Hurray, I can be Errol! (I'd have quite liked to be Colin but then I'd probably have found myself identifying as a dachshund on account of being short)

Elendon · 04/09/2017 15:28

Giles I'd have to keep patting myself on the shoulder. could use that as part of my Pilates exercises to up my abs

PatMullins · 04/09/2017 15:28

Ooh I'm Hugo

Judashascomeintosomemoney · 04/09/2017 15:29

I'm Dusty Hackney!?! (did I press the wrong button?). I'm confused though. Earlier I cranked up my chainsaw and lopped some branches off and later I'll be using my axe to chop them into nice firewood BUT, though I have a moustache, I've just finished bleaching it. What am I?

inchyrablue · 04/09/2017 15:32

The random name generator just gave me Dick. Grin
