As this comic suggests, there are some changes in my life as of late.
After deeply analyzing my identity, behavior and thought patterns, I had my long established idea of self shattered and can no longer deny to myself the truth. The truth being that I just don't fit into society's rigid idea of gender binary. Therefore, screw that rigid framework, I'm not going to try and squeeze myself into it! I'm still in the process of self-exploration but for now it seems the most proper of existing terms to describe my identity is genderqueer (though if I were to label myself, I would use a word "fairy", lol).
I'll continue to use mostly he/him pronouns for now, but they/them is fine too. I also don't plan on going through any medical procedures since I am pretty satisfied with my body as it is and the euphoria that comes from appreciating it (transmedicalism be damned).
So yeah, now I have a more clear understanding of who I've always been.

That's nice! I wish you enjoyment of gender. :P In my case I like to distance myself from it and consider myself a little bit beyond it, while it's more a property of the body and not my internal identity and so on. But I don't like this body, so I'm not going to feel euphoria like you do, haha. It's nice to hear that you feel that way about your body. ^^

why 'fairy' ?

The word carries very specific themes for me. Something ambigous. Soft and flowing, yet with hidden sharp angles, plus an element of confusion or mischief.
