My life is developing in a great way. I have been a poet an artist and a tutor. So I decided to apply to become a DR of English/Technology/Writing. I started the online application and in the personal information section is this gender question...
Gender*
Male
Female
Trans male/Trans man
Trans female/Trans woman
Genderqueer/Gender Non-conforming
Different Identity
Well, right now I consider myself to be a feminized sissy male. I still take herbs for breast growth. I took many steps over nearly 2 years to look, feel, and sound female. Technically a Psychologist will consider me as transgender somewhere on the sexual spectrum. I do feel queer and non conforming as a bisexual sissy male. I know if I went over to HRT I would want to become female. But I don't want that. How will these application readers see me if I come out of the closest as Genderqueer? Is this an issue that effects who will employ me. I just feel I will say I am male, but a really fun male.

I can totally relate to the taking steps to look and feel female and being non conforming and that i to if i took hrt would want to become female. Its kind of tough i wouldnt say im a sissy male but i like presenting as female but still being male if that makes any sense theres times where i also feel more masculine so i guess you could say im gender fluid but errr i dont think that would make much sense tbh nor would anyone understand i doubt..i just want to be a pretty boy with boobs and a female physique

Err for a job id just put male cause it may effect your chances of getting a job because youd be like a minority if u put gender queer or other atleast thats what im thinking

Well my friend is a gay woman and she became a professor. I am a political writer and I think I would enjoy being out all the way.

And certainly not now if you wanted to enlist and serve in the military....

Welllike I said do what you want but when the education system is choosing who to hire and they see an trans girl applying (or any other minority) and a cis male or a real girl they will chose either one of those over you which is the harsh and sad reality of it but it's just something to keep in mind.

I went to a job and course counselor. I discovered I could get a teaching credential for Media, Math and English, or Bilingual teaching in a year. Plus I can start teaching Media and temp teach all these subjects now.
But the question persists. Do I come out as a Genderqueer/Gender Non-conforming ? Or remain male.
