I don't know your story but I believe that sometimes people are non-conforming to the gender their they were physically born into for different reasons. There women who are butch lesbian and dress and look like males, and feminine gay men who look like women and feel more themselves wearing men's clothes, makeup, etc. That does not mean they are transgender. I am supportive of the LGBT community and don't judge others. Compared with decades past, the world, at that younger generations and more liberal and open-minded, tolerant people accept others for being themselves and not traditional and conformists. Watch others on KZbin addressing being androgynous / gender fluid and other topics. There are trolls and haters out there but most commenters are not.

I love seeing transgender people feeling comfortable in their skin after their journey... I feel so emotionally drained that my family doesn't approve of me. I feel like in some way Im messed up in the head or something like that. Its just great to see others that are able to be accepted and feel positive about themselves. And feel accepted. I'm so glad you don't need to hide anything and that you feel like its okay to be transgender ..... Thank you for uploading and being yourself and just breathing.. Thank you for existing.

I'm only 17, and just recently came out as transgender. The moment I started questioning, I never felt valid whatsoever, because a friend of mine, he knew from a young age. All of my other friends did as well. I felt horrible, because I thought that if I came out then I would be struck down, that I would be told that I decided this. Around middle school I started to feel something different, no matter what I wore I never felt good about myself. I met someone my sophomore year of high school and he changed everything because like you were, I wore feminine clothing because I didn't know that it was okay to wear masculine clothes. I completely changed my look and now I'm a happy trans male. So seeing this, brought tears to my eyes. I don't feel as bad. I feel even better about my situation, knowing I'm not the only person who feels this way. Thank you so much.

holy shit.. your story about how you were in early to mid-highschool fit mine perfectly. i've never had that feeling of "i've always been a man," or "i'm stuck in the wrong body," as i often waver between being more masuline and being more feminine in my appearence. just recently, within the past few months, have i come to realize i might be a trans guy, but i was really discouraged by the fact i never related to most trans guys on that aespect. i was always aware of trans people, but i never thought that'd be me. hearing your experience, though, has helped me realize that’s not a requirement of being trans. i'm coming to terms with the fact that i can be somewhat feminine, but more comfortably masculine and as a male. every trans person's experience is different.

Thank you so much. It never clicked even when my mom came and gave me a long explanation about the term transgender. I still remember it. I was weirded out even. And every time I see a video where a transguy says he didn't know, even though he always hated dresses and always hated girly things. even when he felt like a boy. I just want to make it clear that he doesn't understand what it's like to find something out about yourself that you'd never expected. My mom is fully supportive but as the feminine girl I was, she never would have guessed. Nor would I. Every time I hear a transguy say how he always hated feminine things... It still makes me feel invalid. Then again, I feel like a lot of transguys lie too. Thank you so much. And there. A really long comment that no one will read.

Your clothing journey sounds a lot like mine lol. Something interesting about my childhood is that when I was young my parents were super religious. I was never allowed to cut my hair and I always had to wear skirts and dresses. I remember feeling uncomfortable a lot. The funny things is that I never complained about it, but when my mom was a kid she was a tomboy and freaked when my grandma tried to put her in a dress lol. In middle school my parents kinda stopped going to church and I was allowed to wear pants for the first time. I was so happy. I bought men's clothing for the first time in high school. I started out with T-shirts and jackets, but eventually bought everything from the boys section. I never threw away my girls clothes though and was always going back and forth.

Thank you. Honestly, I am still in the closet, but it scares the shit out of me, the thought of coming out to everyone because I did the same. I dressed feminine, I didn't hide my cleavage, I enjoyed doing my makeup, and I enjoyed getting dressed up really feminine. I look back at it now, and even in the last year while I have been questioning, I was still doing that, but I see now I was just in denial. When I first heard about trans, I never thought that was me, until the end of 2018, when I began questioning. In saying that I dressed feminine, I have still done so over the last year, but only during my easy moments. Every few months the feeling that I'm trans keeps coming back, and each time it does come back, the feeling gets stronger and stronger, until now, a year later, when I am crying almost daily over my dysphoria. Over the last few days my dysphoria has been worse over the social stuff, like hearing people call me she/her, or when my aunty called myself and my sisters her girls, that all triggered me. However, tonight, I began to feel voice dysphoria, too, hearing one of my friends friends voices, and hearing how deep his voice is. Watching this has given me the confidence I need to begin to tell more people how I am feeling. So, thank you. :)

I thought Im nonbinary/agender but it didn't really fit? It felt better to be androgynous and you know, not female... Anyway I was talking with this friend and god HOW I CRIED AND SHAKED. I never was so stressed about a talk in my life and thats when I realized, I didn't care and have strong feelings about telling people Im agender, I wasn't scared of it because probably Im not? I don't have strong feelings about it? Long story short, my blessed friend took me shopping for some male clothes and perfume and shit and Ive got shitton of validation, bless.

But I can't ever believe I'm actually trans because I'm just not SURE, and every other trans guy always seems so sure of himself, like he always knew, and it just clicked when he found out what transgender was. But it was never like that for me at all, and I wasn't always uncomfortable being a girl.

This does help a lot. I often start getting worried about really being a trans man because I really didnt have the 'im a boy' thoughts until very recently in my mid/late 20s. I feel my childhood was a lot more 'nonbinary' than anything. I liked boy and girl stuff. I never really desired to cut my hair or look like a boy in any way, but I also didn't really consider it to be an option either, I was a 'girl' so why would I even consider that? But I was never really 'girly' either and a lot of my female friends tended to be queer or tomboys and I didnt really get along with 'girly girls', but I never had many guy friends either. In my early 20s when I learnt about nonbinary I thought I could be that but I didnt really understand it or gender identity very well. I just thought all girls felt that way, doesnt make them trans. When I was 25 I read up on gender dysphoria and gender identity and realised that I was trans. I identified as nonbinary until I started to consider the possibility I could be a trans man. I didn't really want to be nonbinary, I leant more towards the masculine spectrum until eventually I just thought 'I think I just want to be a man'. So now I identify as a trans man. Its a very different journey from most trans men I think so I don't feel as valid sometimes and I worry about transitioning and not liking being a man because of it.

I relate to you. I was just like you only I didn’t go back and forth, I went extreme with feminine and didn’t like it but I felt I had to, I wanted a kid and I wanted to be married so I went with it and now I’m struggling. I want T but I fear the changes because I have a scrawny and very masculine face already. I have huge facial bones and I don’t know what T would do to that. I’m not sure about a beard, but I want the body hair and I want to be a boy (I’m 26) I’m signing up to a gender specialist next month after coming out 6 months ago. I’m terrified but excited

Exactly what I'm going through right now. I have no idea who I am anymore. I came out to my family as transgender, went through it all. I got harassed by a lot of people, including some "family members". I got to the point where I just needed a break.. I had no one to talk to. No one who could understand me or relate to what I was going through. So believe it or not, after all that hate I started to think that.. Maybe something was wrong with me? I started dressing feminine again (as well as identifying as female) and now my dysphoria is coming on strong, but I try so hard to ignore it. I just don't know what to do anymore, and I'm pretty much lost and feel like I just won't fit with whatever choice I do make. There's a lot holding me back.
