Alright, so I’ve been messing around with this whole “gender identity” thing lately, and let me tell you, it’s been a wild ride. I stumbled upon this concept called “seasonalgender” and I just had to give it a shot. You know, just to see what it’s all about.
So, what is this “seasonalgender”? It’s basically when you feel like your gender changes with the seasons. Yeah, you heard that right. It’s like, in the summer, you might feel all bright and sunny, and that’s your gender. Then, when winter rolls around, you’re all cozy and introverted, and boom, that’s your gender now. I read that it’s under the umbrella of “xenogender.”
I started this little experiment at the beginning of spring. I decided to keep a journal to track how I was feeling and how that related to the season. Here’s how it went:
Spring
- March: Flowers were starting to bloom, and I felt this sense of renewal. I was full of energy, always wanting to start new projects. I associated this with a more “masculine” energy, I guess. I started lifting weights and felt super strong.
- April: Okay, April showers bring May flowers, right? I was feeling a bit more emotional, more in tune with nature. I spent a lot of time in my garden, just planting and watching things grow. I felt very connected, like a “feminine” energy, very nurturing.
- May: Things were in full bloom, and I felt vibrant and alive. It was like a mix of both energies, kind of like androgynous or non-binary. I started wearing brighter clothes, going out more, just enjoying life.
Summer
- June: The heat was on! I felt bold and confident. I was all about that summer fun, hitting the beach, going to parties. This felt like a strong, “masculine” vibe again. I was running every morning, feeling unstoppable.
- July: It was getting super hot, and I started to feel more laid-back. I spent a lot of time just chilling by the pool, reading, and relaxing. It was a more “feminine” energy, just going with the flow, you know? I embraced softer colors and flowy fabrics.
- August: The end of summer was approaching, and I felt a mix of both energies again. I was getting ready for a change, feeling a bit restless. I started planning for the fall, organizing my life. It felt like a good balance.
Autumn
- September: The leaves started to change, and so did I. I felt this sense of introspection, a bit melancholic but in a good way. It was a more “feminine” energy, very reflective. I started writing poetry and drinking a lot of tea.
- October: Halloween season! I felt mysterious and a bit mischievous. It was like a darker, more intense energy, kind of “masculine” but in a different way. I started exploring different styles, wearing darker clothes, and feeling edgy.
- November: Things were getting colder, and I felt the need to cozy up. I was all about self-care, taking long baths, and reading books. It was a very “feminine” energy, nurturing myself and preparing for winter.
Winter
- December: The holidays were here, and I felt festive but also a bit stressed. It was a mix of energies, but mostly I felt like I needed to be the strong, providing type, so “masculine” I guess. I was busy with family stuff, making sure everyone was happy.
- January: New year, new me, right? I felt this sense of starting fresh, setting new goals. It was a determined, “masculine” energy. I hit the gym again, started eating healthier, and focused on my career.
- February: The dead of winter. I felt very introverted, almost like I was hibernating. It was a deeply “feminine” energy, very internal and quiet. I spent a lot of time meditating and just being with my thoughts.
So, after a full year of this, I realized that my feelings and how I expressed myself really did change with the seasons. It was like each season brought out a different part of me. I mean, it makes sense, right? We’re all connected to nature in some way, so why wouldn’t our internal selves be influenced by the external world?
This whole seasonal thing might not be for everyone, but it was a cool experience for me. I felt more connected to myself and the world around me. It’s like I found a new way to express who I am, and that’s pretty awesome. If you’re curious, give it a try. You might be surprised at what you discover about yourself. Just remember, there are no rules, and it’s all about what feels right for you. Peace out!
