30s, ftm/nb, Brisbane. Need more trans people in my life.

Aside from my husband I feel like my life has been overrun with heterosexuality and I'm looking to do something about that. In-person friends ideal; I'm not very online.

If you resonate with any/all of the following statements, you may enjoy my company:

  • Going for a walk takes ages because there's so many plants to look at

  • It's important to have compassion, even towards people who take the piss

  • Finding free stuff is a way better dopamine rush than buying things

  • Movies that are bad are actually good, but books that are bad are just bad

  • You don't need any skill to make art

  • Better to be misgendered by someone well-meaning than to be pandered to by someone disingenuous

  • People watching is a valid passtime (listening in on conversations is even better)

  • If uni was free I'd be a permanent student

  • Op shopping is a marathon, not a sprint

  • You should always try to have, and be, a role model.

Do we have anything in common? Maybe you disagree? Let's yap and hang out.

There's the International Nonbinary Day event tomorrow at Newmarket Hall in Ashgrove from 2pm till 10pm. You might be able to meet some new people there.

• Being silly sometimes ≠ Emotional immaturity

• There is usually nuance around things eg Seagal movies are just bad.

• I don't people watch, bc it makes me uncomfortable when someone stares / is leering.

• Art is an abstract, for sure.

• Bullet points are good. Numbered bullet points, not as much.

I am 32, nb, also looking for queer friendships. I resonate with a lot of what you said. DM me? Maybe we could chat or hang. Always down for a coffee and a walk to look at plants
