Hello
I'm cis(?) and gay(?) and ace(?) and I'm one of those people who want to track the concept of gender to a dark lonely place and beat it up with a shovel.
All the labels above are unsatisfactory and i am constantly questioning them but they're the closest thing I have to something that describes me (except for the shovel part, that one is pretty clear)
The only thing that I can add to the current conversation is that I don't think you need to "officially" carry a label in order to explore what it could mean to you, especially when it comes to gender. Social expectations (and our trans-erasing culture) will always win over your personal curiosity if you do that. Better to try and find out than to never know.
