THE GENDER GAME!
What does your gender look like? THE GENDER GAME! uses the art-making process to mirror the process of forming a gender identity, and invites players to think about their gender in ways that are unclear, abstract, potentially uncomfortable, and disconnected from a binary understanding of gender.

Draw a shape for your gender. me: how to draw nothing as a shape while that nothing still is kind of something.
I've been questioning my gender identity a lot lately (and off-and-on for the past year, at minimum), so this activity was an interesting way to vent out some of that confusion. I didn't draw anything especially exciting, but it allowed me to redirect my mental energy elsewhere, which I kind of needed. As for what I would describe my gender, it's very... amorphous?
Regardless, I'll keep this game bookmarked somewhere so I can go back to it whenever I feel like it.
That was a fun activity. I couldn’t get the links in the game to work, so I couldn’t submit my chameleon and its friends to the gallery. (My shapes were all animals.) Also, when I got to the question about sharing my gender I wanted an “ambivalent” option. I don’t go out of the way to share my gender, but I don’t hide it, either, and none of the responses seemed appropriate.

expressing your gender as a blob is unexpectedly fun
