I suppose this will serve as my official introductory chitt, as is customary for social media platforms that have almost every iteration of myself fracturing and splintering across dimensions in an amalgamate gothic clusterfuck. You may call me Roan, I am a trans man using he/him pronouns, and if you disrespect these simple facts you will not only be welcomed by my liberal usage of the block function, but also by a hex most foul. Do not test my patience with this. With that unfortunately necessarily out of the way, please feel free to consult me on topics including but not limited to: Tarot, runes, divination, witchcraft, satanism, demonolatry and demonology, horror and gothic media, post-punk, coldwave and other 'goth' music, queer topics and media. ~~ Blessed be ~~

I am very disappointed that this is the first thing I see on this site.

I wasn't aware that I would be fathering anyone, however as the saying goes, "blah blah great power, blah blah responsibility".
It both jarring and refreshing to find a transmasculine version of you here It makes me feel a bit less like a black lamb
It seems as though we (the collective of trans masculine Lalonde's) appear to be few and far between. I wonder why that is.
It seems we are defined if not by femininity then by our relationship thereto I know even my very cis mom struggled with questions of what womanhood meant to her especially in the wake of a complicated mother figure My mother on the other hand is part of a nearly exclusively female caste of essentially mothers Aunt Roxy transitioned to not only perform hyperfemininity but to bask in it although I have seen transmasculine alternates who instead subvert that femininity, repackage it, make it their own Aunt Calliope escaped from a brother who feels like the embodiment of misogyny, to find her own self-determination as a butch lesbian And then there's me The transmasculine dyke child of two of my world's literal icons of femininity Only my cousin Caduceus seems to have escaped these pervasive themes but she is still femme so there's that
I am pleased to hear you have such a nuanced experience of the way personal gender identity, societal perceptions and judgements, attachments to sexuality, cultural assumptions and compulsory heteronormativity within the expansive gender non-conforming community all intersect. You and I may have similar opinions, and those we may not share, will be most insightful to discuss.
Oh you do not even fucking know My androgyny is so precise, that as testosterone affects my face, with each new hair I reassess my look To bind or not to bind - that is the question Each stroke of lipstick placed with such intent The point - to never have to say my pronouns Nor reveal my sexuality Each beholder sees a they/them dyke
