I've never encountered a "women + trans" space IRL, only online, and I wouldn't personally use one myself. I think that phrasing is based on the assumption that trans men aren't really men, so I wouldn't want to participate in a group like that. The ideal space for me would be one specifically for gay trans men (by which I mean Homosexual Gay, not Pansexual Gay), because I feel like I don't really relate to straight trans men very well, so a mixed trans group would probably not be that useful to me. In general I think I'm in favour of smaller, more focused/narrow groups, rather than larger catch-all groups.
I don't tend to watch TV shows that are currently airing, as I prefer waiting until an entire season of something has been subbed and put up online (I worry that the subbing group will drop the show partway through 😰). At the moment I'm slowly working my way through Segodon, which was the taiga drama NHK aired in 2018. I think Segodon is the most recent taiga I've ever watched, since the show only finished on 16th Dec 2018, and we started watching it on 1st Jan 2019!
Sadly not, I know bits and pieces of Japanese and Korean that I've picked up from TV shows, and a bit of French and Latin from school, but I'm nowhere near fluent in anything. If I could magically become fluent in three extra languages, I would pick Japanese, Korean, and Mandarin Chinese. The amount of books and films this would open up to me would be amazing! (But it's definitely not a high enough priority for me to warrant the effort required to actually learn these languages IRL)
I get migraines, the type with vision loss and scintillating scotoma followed by a severe headache, but thankfully I don't get the nausea or vomiting that some migraineurs experience. Sadly I've never been able to identify a trigger for my migraines, as they only happen a handful of times per year, and they don't seem to correlate with any environmental factors as far as I can tell from my records 🤔

Do you have a favorite outfit or article of clothing that you own? If so, what is it, and why do you like it?

I admire your confidence, your honesty, and your fearlessness. You are something of a social mentor or role model to me, as I wish I could speak with such care, tastefulness, and grace.
A lie-in, which by my standards is getting up at about 6am, followed by a day trip with my partner to somewhere peaceful and green. I particularly love botanical gardens, and formal landscape gardens, as I really like taking photos of the kind of extravagant flowers you get in those sorts of places. If it was a really perfect day, there would also be a coastal walk, so I could see the sea and possibly paddle in the water a bit. And then at the end of the afternoon, I'd go home with my partner, and he'd cook my favourite meal (which varies), and then we'd have a quiet evening in together, watching taiga dramas curled up on the sofa 😍
The film noir "Out of the Past" is strongly tied to the first year of my first degree, in 1999-2000. I watched it as part of a module on film analysis (I was doing an English Literature degree, but we could take modules about other adjacent subjects), and it introduced me to the immense subtextual gayness of the genre, so I fell in love with film noir very quickly afterwards 😍

When you were a child, did you know or learn any songs that never end?

if you could travel back in time specifically for the purpose of courting someone from the past, who would you court?

you've mentioned before that your ideal boy is a non-drinker / non-smoker, what is your relationship to substances like that?
I used to drink alcohol at a moderate level, but I've never smoked or used recreational drugs, so I am a very "square" person generally speaking. I dislike it when people smoke simply because the smell of cigarette smoke offends my delicate nose 😅 But I dislike drinking and recreational drug use because I don't like being around people who aren't fully in control of themselves; human beings are bewildering and unpredictable enough even when they're sober, and when they're intoxicated they are even more stressful to be around. I could probably tolerate a boy drinking a very low amount very occasionally, but I think that would be my absolute limit. (I should really date a Mormon boy!)
