On DuckDuckGo there's this weird phenomena where if my query includes words that are even slightly related to porn themes all my results will be porn. Does this happen on Bing as well?

Make sure to let them feel safe about expressing themself. I hope everything goes well for you both (^w^)

What does my gender even change about my life?

The answer is probably different for each person. I always felt weird about the expectations people have on me based on my gender.

Is gender even real?

Great question! I don't know. Probably is... and isn't. I think about it like a social construct, like money for example. Money doesn't exist in biology or in physics. Its just paper, or metal discs, or a number on my screen. But it definitely affects the lives of people living in any civilization. But gender can't be just a social construct because it's too subjective. There probably is more to it.

There isn't much scientific research in gender. We definitely need more.

oh well... I thought I was neutral about my gender (I also thought everyone was, and that my discomfort with my body was normal), but I started trying stuff and having people referring to me with "she" and "her" and just seeing me as a feminine person made me feel a comfort I never felt before.

I don't think I understand your question (^—^;)

edit: just to be clear, when I said "born a woman" I meant AFAB.

"I don't understand trans people. Why would you have a problem with the gender you were given at birth? If I was born a woman I wouldn't want to transition into a man"

- me before I realized I was trans

I like the drawning of the gecko :3

I'm assuming it's lack of trust because I don't know the context. Of course there could be other explanations.

lack of trust, possessiveness
