r/GNCStraight

Just a small rant but as a cishet masc woman im having issues finding fellows to talk and connect to 💔 dont get me wrong, I'm so happy to talk to any gnc person, butch lesbians, my more gender conforming friends etc but it feels a bit lonley sometimes ill admit haha

However, I just feel like I'm invading spaces looking for advice/talking in butch communites because obviously a huge part of their identity is loving women and well, i dont relate in that way just the wanting to presenting masc way haha

And then trying to find fellow cishet masc women in the wild or online etc and they're often... really bigoted. Specificially loudly transphobic and i dont subscribe to that at ALL. It's a shame!!

If theres any cishet masc women who want to connect and just vibe let me know id love to have others to talk to 🫶

EDIT: obviously anyone else who want to talk are more than free to!! i love making new friends just putting this out here to see if i can catch some of my fellows too haha

"Feminine women can be strong!!" "Women dont have to be masculine to be strong!!" Okey but consider pathetic girlfailure masc women. WE NEED MORE!! Do rep like this even exist 💔💔

So im a cis man, but I feel like im in some weird limbo where I don't know what i truly qualify as. For context, I've been on estrogen for 2 years, and I've always wanted to be a "wife" and "mother" but still be a guy, not in any weird way but kinda just as the compliment to a masculine partner. Im straight but Im attracted to masculinity generally. But im not feminine. I have masculine mannerisms, i dress masculine, talk masculine, and generally exist as masculine. I started hrt because I hated how masculine my *body* looked and wanted to change it before I kept aging (im 22). But I'm realizing the goals I set for myself arent achievable so im not going to have a truly feminine body despite hrt. It will still look *subtly* feminine in a weird androgynous way but not really obvious.

All this is to say i feel im in limbo. I dont feel feminine enough to claim to be gnc, but I also feel if I told my cis male friends what im doing or what my thoughts and feelings are they'd make fun of me or call me a freak. So im too masculine to break norms, but also too feminine to fit in. I feel like nothing. I liked this sub especially when it used to be super active a few years ago because ive always been drawn to masculine women, but I doubt I fit the bill for the other side of it when I fail to be feminine enough. I care about being accurate about myself. So I want to ask, am I gnc? I don't really feel non conforming at this point but what do I know?

hey. i was just wondering how common gnc relationships are in the day to day. i grew up in an area that was extremely patriarchal and gender role heavy, and moving out made me realize i'm really femme. i'm still straight though, but attracted to masculine women, so i'm wondering how easy it would be for me to find someone who would be into me who would also be my type, since i don't have a natural sense for how common these kinds of relationships are
