The ETR 600 is a class of trains built by Alstom, and are used on the routes between Roma-Bolzano and Roma-Trieste. The train tilts, using Pendolino technology, allowing higher speeds to be maintained through corners without causing discomfort to passengers. The trains are operated by Trenitalia, originally under the Frecciargento (Silver Arrow) branding used for trains capable of travelling between 250 km/h and 285 km/h, In 2022 they were rebranded under Frecciarossa (Red Arrow) after the Frecciargento branding was retired.

The ETR 600 has also been adapted for use in China as the China Railway CRH5 Hexie. Initially 60 sets were ordered, of which nine were manufactured by Alstom and 51 by CNR Changchun Railway Vehicles. Since, another 80 sets have been created for a total of 140, operating across China’s north from Beijing to Ürümqi.

    Is wanting to be a girl who wants to be a guy a gender? (Sorry if this is poorly worded.)

    But also I want to be super fucking girly and frilly.

    Gender hurts sometimes xp

        I don’t know, its not even presentation its more like behavior? I mean I known I can do whatever I want because gender is a lie like God and Wyoming.

        Honestly its probably more accurate to call me a demigirl or some other sorta enby but also I like just being a lady. I guess they’re not mutually exclusive? Ack.

            For sure, I’m just trying to put my finger on what that exactly means for me.

            If you don’t mind is it okay if I ask you why you choose to present femme if you feel nothing?

            Its cool if you don’t wanna explain yourself, your identity is valid and all that love. I just like learning more about my fellow genderqueers because you’re all very cute and neat.

              Always okay ^^

              I’m an agender enby c: I don’t behave in any specific way and don’t feel anything no matter the presentation but I enjoy wearing makeup and having long nails, I dress however I want (goth generally but I mix it up a little here to there) I also enjoy preening myself and smelling nice, but It’s purely aesthetic.

              Also when I hit puberty my body went the femme route with an hour glass figure and breasts (I’m intersex)

      I thought I wanted to be a guy who wants to be a girl before I realised I was trans.

      For me that was because I had difficulty thinking out of the binary. I like girly culture and I feel a strong connection of solidarity with women and I always felt like that meant that I wasn’t trans. I thought that being trans meant adopting all stereotypes of a gender and switching teams in terms of gender solidarity (very silly). I was also afraid that trans spaces wouldn’t accept a feminine trans guy like me and that people would say/find out that I wasn’t really trans.

      This site made me realise that my gender is literally what I want it to be and that I do not need confirmation from other trans people to be trans (but even then it still helped that I did get that confirmation here).

      I have no idea if your situation is similar, where you want to be a woman but still feel attached to some characteristics you associate with men. Either way it doesn’t matter because your gender identity is yours alone and you can have it be anything you want it to be :)

      If your gender is girl who wants to be a guy then I think you could try transitioning to be a girl first and then again to be a guy. Maybe you just enjoy the journey of transitioning and want to do it again and again snd again
