1.) identify as male assigned at birth (MAAB) transgender woman. 2.) that means I have lived my life as a man (and still mostly do) outwardly, while feeling like this is incorrect, instead feeling that a female public persona is more correct. 3.) I think the idea of "feeling" a gender is bizarre and difficult to understand. it definitely qualifies as being difficult to describe with standard vocabulary. 4.) You are more than welcome to run ideas by me if you'd like. I think a good place to look is in languages which already have a 3rd gender and see how they distinguish the third gender from the other two (i.e. Herr, Het, Hen (being the third)). 5.) no constructed languages for me (save music).
Do you know of anyone in philosophy who does "queer epistemology" or "phenomenological epistemology"? I've been fascinated by how one discovers and identifies one's "correct" (for lack of a better word) gender and orientation. I think if it could become a respectable aspect of philosophy and psychology, it could have implications even for cisgender and heterosexual people.3.)
