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?

My new hobby is DIY.

I'm going to have those man tools. And take them out to do essential work 4 hours before a dinner party.

I care about my house.

Wear the bra! That way you get to have extra time to yourself and do nothing.

We men know all the secrets and more! Invincible.

I always choose "Mr" when "Dr" isn't available so really I'm ahead of the game with this!

Yes I decided some time ago that I was now gender fluid and would not be standing in ques for ladies toilets while the menswas empty any more.

I also did the online test which told me I was a trans man cos I don't like sparkles n that so I've got scientific evidence.

I quite fancy being called erm... hmm... Methuselah has a nice ring to it.

Popchyk · 04/09/2017 20:15

Twelvety, yes from The Goldfinch.

Name changed a while back but been around here for a bit in one guise or another.

This is the best thread on MN by some way. With all this genius manly bantz obviously it would be!

Gobbolinothewitchscat · 04/09/2017 20:17

Elvis Scully here. But I think I'll just call myself Donald Trump and identify as the president as well.

My newly gay DH can be the First Lady and I will leave him scrabbling to get out of cars whilst I stride ahead and you all make fun of his clothes.

Popchyk

Alan Turing Way? Did that used to be Nelson Mandela Drive?

Backingvocals · 04/09/2017 20:23

despite the bantz, we're not trending Hmm

Popchyk · 04/09/2017 20:25

Popchyk, Isambard?

Did you just fucking DEADNAME me? My name is Colin. And your constant references to the other name is just like being stabbed repeatedly through the heart with a rusty spike.

Except worse obviously.

Reported.

Twelvety · 04/09/2017 20:26

Backing that's because MN is transphobic, hadn't you heard?

Smile popchyk I really enjoyed the book.

SophoclesTheFox · 04/09/2017 20:26

I'm keeping my manly stiff upper lip, assigned. Definitely NOT crying! No way!

Twelvety · 04/09/2017 20:26

Also, sorry Colin!

GrockleBocs · 04/09/2017 20:27

I have a manly black hammer drill. Because I'm a manly man.

I am seeing a gynaecologist tomorrow and will make sure I'm referred to as Mr Logan throughout.

Gileswithachainsaw · 04/09/2017 20:36

Demand a prostate exam while you are there. They cant refuse

OhTheRoses · 04/09/2017 20:43

Woman
Female
Menopause

We're all part man anyway. Just better, so no, I'm not prepared to compromise, except for the privilegy bits.

LineysRun · 04/09/2017 20:44

I expect that my manly fibroid is really a suppressed testicle.

FlaviaAlbia · 04/09/2017 20:48

Colin I'm crying laughing in an extremely manly way.

I work in IT, I get my hair cut in a barbers and with a little help from my now gay DH I renovated my house using many manly powertools.

I just needed a name to fully embrace the real me and the handy name generator has given me...

Gaylord Bravo

Thewolfsjustapuppy · 04/09/2017 20:53

Gaylord is a perfectly acceptable manly name, don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

FlaviaAlbia · 04/09/2017 20:56

I feel I can carry it off wolf

Maybe if I get a face tattoo and a aggressive looking dog it'll help.
