    Pretty much all GC women consider gender identity to be a harmful social construct, and as such, we don't believe we have one.

    As for me personally, I'm a biological female who "presents" stereotypically male in all ways. Hair, clothing, hobbies, etc. I have never felt like a woman or wanted to be a woman. However, I fully acknowledge my biological sex and do not intend to medically transition. I guess you could say I'm a "butch" straight woman, but I just go with GNC because "butch" really belong to lesbians.

    "Agender" implies a person believes in gender identity but doesn't think they personally experience one. That's not my situation. I only know I am a biological female based on my body. It has nothing to do with feelings.

      I don't have a problem with people who don't work within the framework at all if it doesn't resonate with them.

      So, why the compelled speech, then?
