( he lifts a hand to stroke at sasuke's hair. being introduced to a new concept is more bafflingly novel than difficult to navigate, though, so when he speaks he sounds certain of himself. )
Let's tweak the language a bit there, though. It wouldn't be a woman's body, it would be yours with some changes. Being physically female wouldn't erase or negate that you're a man.
( although maybe he should be careful to frame it that way. after a moment — )
Hey, actually let me back that up. Is there a chance this is maybe a gender thing for you? Quick recap — a body's sex is biological, gender is more social construct/mental perception, so you can have people that vibe with a gender that doesn't align with their physical body. Either is totally normal and fine — it just changes my approach to this whole idea, okay?
