  • How do you "feel" gender?

  • About the second part: Yup. I wouldn't really care either.

    I also don't care about which pronouns people use referring to me. And while I'm completely fine with my body, having a different one sound doesn't sound unpleasant. It actually sounds like an interesting experience when it comes to changing perspectives.

  • nothing to worry about.

    Well I don't really worry about anything, I'm fine with how it is :3

    Most people don’t really have much of a feeling there either. Don’t overthink it.

    But a question which does arise reading this answer is: If most people don't have a feeling for gender, why does gender even exist in the first place? I view gender as a set of personality traits that are summarized under one term (a gender). If you match the personality traits connected to a certain gender, you have this gender. This makes it easier for people to have a basic overview of your personality without you having to explain much. But if most people actually don't really correspond to gender norms and don't have a feeling for their gender, doesn't gender cease to exist? Isn't it just your name and your pronouns at this point?

    E: I know that gender and sex were (partially are) considered to be the same. It's more a theoretical question emerging from the current view on gender, I know that patriarchy and stuff prevent immediate practical effect.
