Hey, we still haven't been able to find a secure way to poll everyone yet. I've really been wanting to ask (in the negative, to be more inclusive) what proportion of Hexbear is queer. This isn't going to be super scientific or anything as a result, but just a quick guess.

Please respond to this post with the following emojis :

For yes, you ARE a cisgender heterosexual (cishet):

dean-smile

For no, you are NOT a cisgender heterosexual (cishet):

dean-frown

For unsure, as in you are UNSURE or QUESTIONING if you are queer, transgender, a cisgender heterosexual (cishet), etc:

dean-neutral

If you have anything to add, please use a spoiler tag below your answer like so:

spoilerhi!

Remember to respond even if you are cisgender, queer, or otherwise. Everyone should try to respond, if you feel comfortable! meow-shining

spoilerForgive this rambling explanation, I haven't deeply explored my feelings on this.

I always feel a little weird giving my honest response to this question because I feel like I'm taking something away from trans people.

I don't identify with my birth assigned gender, but I do generally conform to it in dress and appearance and don't care to change that. I don't feel like I'm any gender at all(is that agender?). I don't ever feel gender dysphoria and don't really think about my gender identity often. I do sometimes feel pressure to conform to my birth gender in behavior, and that really bothers me because that's the aspect of gender I don't identify with. When I was younger I always felt like I was performing my assigned gender, and as an older person I'm glad I'm mostly free of that.

I think that makes me trans, but I'm not sure.
