      Am I the only person who thinks that cis writers write about changes of identity in a really... I don't know. An idiosyncratic way, certainly Like the whole "you're not Kylo, you're Ben!" thing. I don't think a trans writer would naturally write dialogue like that. It seems off

      Knowledge of self is like the first thing you get when your egg cracks. "Ohhh, *thats* me." I feel like others have to view their identity thru some weird societal lens, so no have clue how to express it.

      I think it's less that and more that cis folks are the self they've always been. There's no single defining moment to it, just a gradual accretion of identity. So there's no real demarcation of 'this is not me' that they can point at and be happy to be rid of, it's always them.

      Replying to @Tsilkani @decoy_orange @Nymphomachy

      I...don't know. I'm cis & I very much had a defining moment where I forcibly, adamantly, violently rejected who I was & remade myself despite protests from family. It's not comparable to being trans at all, but I'm not sure it's accurate to say cis people are always themselves?

      Maybe not always, but we're working with generalities here.

      I figured, but I'm going off my experience with abused cis people. Most of the ones I know did that - radically transformed themselves after escaping that part of their life.

      abuse ime is typically the main reason a cis person changes their name, after the more clerical reasons

          I thought that was what "clerical reasons" meant?
