People can say whatever they want about who I am and the labels I apply to myself at this point. I just don’t care anymore.
2023 has been a fantastic year of self-acceptance overall for me, and I’m finally embracing that I don’t have to do things “the right way”, I can just do things my way. The way things in my life were always supposed to be.
From feeling like I wasn’t supposed to be polykin, to feeling like I wasn’t supposed to voluntarily identify as any nonhuman things (otherlink) and my involuntary kintypes were the only ones that “mattered”, to feeling like I can’t have more than a certain amount of xenogender labels… I’m just done. I just don’t care anymore.
My journey officially started when I began posting to this blog. Back then, I was starting to accept myself more, but I was still very fearful and still living by other people’s rules. Other people’s thresholds for the validity of my identity and life. How dumb is that?
Well, I’m doing whatever I want now and no amount of people telling me I’m invalid is going to stop me. People always say “be yourself” until it’s something they personally dislike, and I’ve realized that now. This is my life! Not yours! It’s about damn time I fully embrace that.
