I'm pretty slow to reply here, I like to scroll through and add posts to my queue.
I'm a system, but when in doubt, you're communicating with what We call 'the body' which is femme and uses She/Her pronouns. When talking about my system, I'll often capitalize my plural pronouns, such as 'We,' 'Us,' 'Our,' etc. This is to help clarify when I'm talking about us as part of a group, and Us as headmates in my system.
We've known We're a system since mid 2023. We talked with my therapist about it and decided against seeking a diagnosis at this time. We aren't an authority, nor do we want to be viewed as an authority on being a system. Some headmates have a more complicated relationship with gender, sexuality, and sexual orientation. Calling Ourself a Lesbian on a gradient is a reclaimation for Us and Our complicated journey to accepting and expressing myself as I am.
I'm a polyamorous relationship anarchist who is currently nesting with my partner, @skystem. I had my confidence shattered over 2024 via a really rough relationship that led to me going through a slow recovery from since.
I also suffered an injury that never fully healed sometime mid 2024 and have been both learning to accept that the body can no longer do some things I used to tie pretty heavily to my identity.
I've probably forgotten some other details. if it bothers me enough, I'll share, but frankly, that's private stuff that I'm not obligated to disclose 🌈
