不可解なぼくのすべてを | Week 3 Discussion ♀♂

Honestly didn’t expect this manga to get this interesting!

Plot stuff (with spoilers from the chapter)

About the conflict with Mei: I get the feeling that Mei also doesn’t identify as a boy and has put up with it until now, so she’s angry and jealous about Mogumo fighting for their identity? Could be wrong, but I’m looking forward to seeing if they explore in-depth each character’s identity and gender expression. Mogumo and Tetsu are cuter than I thought they would be, and Mogumo’s determination surprised me as well!

Anyway, there’s a sentence I don’t understand. It’s on page 50 -I think-, by Mogumo:
自分と同じ性別って感覚がよくわかんないの。
Context:

“I don’t really understand the feeling of being attracted to someone of my own gender” terrible translation, but what I imagine they’re saying here is: since they’re neither a boy nor a girl and they haven’t met anyone like them, they don’t understand what it means to be attracted to their same gender? I took the being attracted part from the conversation with Satori :thinking:
