A(gender)vengers Assemble!

Recommended Posts

Welcome Edensheel!! :cake:

A rubber duck store on the top of a mountain. Wow. Well done to them!

It reminds me of a hike I did. It's called the West Coast Trail, and is about a 7 day hike through the rugged coast of Vanouver Island on the west coast of Canada. In the middle, the natives run a burger shack. After four days of freeze-dried camp food, that was the best burger of my life!! SO GOOD!

Making people work for things really does make it more precious, eh? :)

That hike sounds intense! O___O do you hike often?

I try to hike as often as I can, but I'm so busy nowadays :( That story comes from when I was in high school, and could still take a week off in the middle of the summer with no ramifications :P Oh, the good old days when summers were free... *sigh*

Another newly agender-identifying soul to add to the mix. Basically 2.5 A's on the three A scale (asexual, agender, kinda sorta romantic when I can clear my head and step outside myself).

Hey hey hey, welcome to our corner of AVEN!

Having a very agender day today, walking round the market noticing how obviously gendered all the clothes are and grumbling about it to my dad. Luckily for my sanity he's pretty non gender-conforming himself ^^ Let's throw away all labels except size and just have "clothes"!

After reading this article yesterday I've been dwelling on gender expression. Intellectually I understand expression and identity are separate, but I still feel guilty when I think of all the hardship those who decide to transition face versus the ease that comes with passing. I guess I just feel lucky that I've never suffered much dysphoria.

Anyhow, I thought the article was a great read and people here might relate. As someone whose agender expression is mostly centered around elimination of overt gender markers, it's always interesting to learn about agender people's experience who express as more fluid or as a binary mash-up.

I guess I'm here too? Not 100% sure I'm agender but that's what I'm going with for now. Gender is weird and confusing.

^^^^^^ THIS

Was in a thread here talking about gender and realised that I "don't get it" and then it hit me........ I don't get it because I don't experience it. Oh. Oh! Cue a few days of anxiety and a few weeks later, here I am!!!

School and homework and trying to fit in some anime when I can.

But selling t-shirts sounds fun. How's that going?

pretty well, I've made $15.40

I'm having trouble advertising though :/ like I want people to know about it but at the same time I don't want to sound like a pushy sales person..

Hmm...perhaps try posting something in Open Mic? Although I don't know what that subforum's policy is on selling stuff, probably best to check with the pinned thread with the rules first and then use your own judgement. Just sort of a "hey, I made this thing, and if you like it you can buy it!" type thing, perhaps?

Hey there The_Verse :3 how are you?

I've been getting rid of a lot of clothes lately as part of trying to be more minimalistic with my possessions. I found out that I do have my favorites when it comes to clothes, and there are things that I had and liked but never reached for. I feel like having staple items that I love is the key to not having a bunch of clothes that take up closet space and laundry time. x.x

Yes I have a minimalist approach with regards to clothes. I don't have that many clothes for leisure wear, mainly just t-shirts
