Thanks for the comment, Erica! Really well said. I like your reasoning a lot, and that’s a much better/healthier line of thought than the one I was posting about… It’s a really clean way of saying what I was getting at: That your own self-identification should (and can!) take precedence over social or cultural definitions of body parts.

for me it goes more
1. I like sex, and being sexual
2. I identify as a woman
3. I was assigned “boy” at birth and I still have ‘original bits’
4. Women can’t have ‘boy bits’
4.b. They must be ‘girl bits’

I would be happier with more traditional ‘girl bits’ but it isn’t like I am the first girl with something about her body she would like to change, it doesn’t mean I can’t work with what I have. But anyone who tries to masculinize me or ‘my bits’ will not be someone I have sex or be sexual with.

I’m saying I’m enjoying sex with it, even when I don’t necessarily like it

So are you saying that you are liking your body and enjoying sex with it
