DID/OSDD is a survival mechanism of a traumatized developing brain. it's not going to spit things out without reason. one of the things DID/OSDD does, as we all know, causes alters to form after recurring trauma

those alters form because the brain believes it needs a part which can handle whatever it's trying to store. naturally, this means everything about an alter are all things that the brain believed it needed in order to survive. even things which seem undesirable (eg, a part that holds sadness and cries all the time) were needed because Someone needed to hold all of that

this means everything about an alter has a reason. sometimes the reason isn't drastic. maybe an alter likes one toy more than the other because they split at the age you got that one toy and that's all. other times it can be something that really needs addressing, like parts that lash out

this means there will be threads of similarity throughout the whole system because the divergencies are where different traits were needed. if you're white, your brain will not just decide to make certain alters identify as a different race for no reason. if you're not trans feminine, your brain won't just decide it needs a trans feminine alter. if you're cis, you won't just have a trans alter for kicks. the same as how a part that lashes out is not just lashing out without reason, or how a part that does schoolwork is doing it for a reason

To alters who don’t identify with the body’s assigned gender:

To alters who do identify with the body’s assigned gender, but the body is transitioning medically and socially and eventually won’t identify with it:

To systems with alters of many different genders:

To systems with alters of multiple genders who are considering transitioning medically or socially, for whom such a decision is hard because of the gender variance of the alters:

To alters/systems whose whole relationship with gender is muddled because of the system:

To systems who transitioned and later detransitioned because of system-related gender troubles:

stop using system terms singlet kinnies!!!!!!!!!! it both a) can really mix up people with systems who don't know it (as me who thought some of my fictives were a kin, yes, it can happen) and not to undermine what a kinnie goes through, it really butchers how people see the both of us. some of these terms are exclusive (and professionally used) terms for systems

DON'T say switching; DO SAY shift

DON'T call your kins a system

DON'T or TRY TO avoid terms like plural or things like that

PLEASE KNOW: you're NOT a fictive if you're a singlet. Fictives are NOT kin terms
