Afab People - Tumblr Posts
does anyone else that's afab just... forget that they can have periods? like especially when i'm identifying as cis male (context: i'm genderfluid and also have adhd so i switch between genders and also my memory is shit) i just COMPLETELY forget about periods.
just a few weeks ago i downloaded the Flo app to keep track of it after years of meaning to and whenever i'm cis male i look at it and double take because periods? that's not a cismale thing?!? (but it is an afab thing if you're not on T or horomone blockers)
also it fucks with my ability to recognize if my cycle is going to happen or not. just two weeks ago i was "weirdly" craving chocolate so i went out during my usual working time and purchased some and felt like a shit impulse-controller and low and behold i get my period that night and yeah! it's cravings! this is what happens when you try hard as fuck to ignore a craving! it just gets worse!
so yeah basically my memory is shit (bc adhd) and my perspecitve is skewed (when i identify as cis male because then female body?! it does not jive!)
