ok so basically im not girl

Post by DarkZero » Fri May 31, 2019 4:47 am

EDIT: I am NOT a girl, as it turns out! I'm actually nonbinary, more information here: https://www.twitlonger.com/show/n_1sqthvj?new_post=true

Below is the original post, for posterity's sake:
It wasn't an easy decision to come to, but after weighing the pros and cons a LOT, I've decided this is what I want to do.

I've been having a lot of doubts and confusing about my gender identity for a while, and while I'm not 100% sure that being female is right for me, it is absolutely something I want to pursue. I've changed my pronouns on most of the internet by this point and have come out in a few different circles already. Haven't come out IRL, and I have no particular plans to anytime soon. It's much safer for me to limit this to my internet presence for right now, I think.

Also I've decided that I like the name "Zoe", so if you ever want to refer to me casually in a conversation, that'll be my name.

Probably still gonna keep my username as DarkZero. If I do end up changing it, it'll probably be something with the same acronym bc tbh I like it when people call me DZ.

TL;DR I'm a girl now, she/her pronouns please, call me Zoe if you want

I thought about making the "DarkZoero" joke on Twitter, but it's just as silly now.

Congrats! ^_^
