Pro Tip: There’s nothing wrong with experimenting with gender. We live in a society that adamantly forces a binary on us, so we’re never allowed to explore or question our gender. 

Your gender can change.

Your age changes, your appearance changes, your personality changes… everything about you can change, including your gender.

When I first started my “gender journey” I exclusively identified as a man after being labeled as a girl for 16 years. Though now, almost two years later, I’ve done a lot of growing and experimenting and trying different things, and I’ve come to identify with a genderfluid sort of identity, in that I feel mostly masculine but still like wearing makeup and presenting feminine depending on the day. I feel so much happier with this knowledge and with this presentation of myself, but I never would have found this happiness in my gender unless I’d let myself experiment and learn, and change.

Your gender can change, because you can change.

And that’s not a bad thing, if you ask me.
