The H Word
Out of respect for people who may read this and feel hurt by the "H word," I am going to write it as h'rm for this post.
In my writing and the art on my page, I only use the H word to describe characters that fit the biological meaning of the word: an individual with both sets of genitalia. In real life, I never use the h'rm to describe anyone unless they already identify that way. I am one such person, I identify as a trans h'rm.
With the aid of the two therapists I've had in the last decade, I've identified that the source of my dysphoria is that my physical body does not match my h'rm gender identity. Finding other h'rms online saved my life and being able to identify as one was like exhaling after holding my breath for over twenty years. I haven't felt as depressed, alone, or anxious since I became part of a community that identifies the same way I do.
I like that using the H word immediately brings to people's minds how I want to be seen without the need for further explanation or discourse. I have Asperger's and being trans already takes up so many spoons that efficient communication is something I cherish.
But I am saddened that a word that gives me joy and identity often puts a wall between me and the larger trans community due to its derogatory usages.
Altersex is an awesome new term and has lots of potential, but it is also far less specific and I don't feel it truly represents me or my characters.
Many established artists get around using words like h'rm by simply not tagging a character's gender and letting the image speak for itself. All the art I create is written, so there is no quick way for people to ascertain what's in it without tags.
Using h'rm correctly, only to describe characters and individuals that want to be referred to that way is my way of helping to reclaim it. I educate people who misuse it and try to lead by example.
Thank you for your time,
