what does "being a man" mean to you? Do you see it as a way of expressing your sexual desires without having to thinl of yourself a "lesbian" which you obviously have issuses with..

[@transchristian3819]

"Being a man" has nothing to do with my "sexual desires" at all. I am a man, I have issues with being called a lesbian because Im not one, "being a man" to me is just something someone says, because of the fact no matter what you are like you can still be a man. There aren't "qualifications" for "being a man," you are who you are.

TransChristian sorry to tell you this but ib biology there are objective criteria which have nothing to do with "how you feel", Its a species specific term for sex, all animals with two distinct sexes are called "gendered animals" ie in horses the genders are mare and stallion, in bovines its cow and bull and in human beings its man and woman. The only objective criteria for a man are adult, male, human being, what you describe are gender roles which are societally constructed and subjective ie girls like dolls and pink, boys like cars and sports, these are untrue a women who does not confom with gender roles is not a isnt any less of a women its just evidence that gender roles are bs

TransChristian also as for "not being a lesbian" A Lesbian is a female with same SEX attractions, note its nothing to do with gender roles or how someone feels its based on SEXUAL ATTRACTION ie the sex you are and the sex your attracted to you are a female thats attracted to females so unless you dont believe in bioloical sex you are a lesbian..

+gdcsc dcscs I do believe in biologic sex and I understand it, but the thing is put yourself in my position if you're a "woman" and you feel the total opposite but based on something that's scientifically proven or in a textbook, you can't be who you know you are because it's not correct with science, would you honestly spend the one life you get saying that you are one thing and not believing it yourself but having to hide it from people and make the illusion pass with everyone else in the world.

TransChristian i dont understand what you mean when you say "feel like a woman" there is no one way to feel like a women, i can understand that if growing up you never fit societal norms about "how women should be" and misunderstood that as you "being the wrong gender" but its not its just proof that trying to make people conform to certain behaviours/ways of dressing etc based on gender is wrong. By saying you cant live how you want as a woman you are implying that there are some things beyond womens reach, so i ask you unless its about how others see you what can you not do as a woman that you want to?
