questioning my gender...

4 hours ago by slurrpuffed to c/trans

reasons i may be trans (ftm)

  • i kind of want to become a guy
  • i fantasised once about my mother telling me how i’ve grown up into such a cute boy
  • i sometimes fantasise about injecting t into myself
  • i look into the mirror and i almost see a guy (maybe im just delusional 😭)

reasons i may not be trans

  • im not dysphoric, im fine being a girl
  • i could just be deluding myself???
  • i would want to present femininely anyways, forgive me but my ideal self would be a femboy…
  • i would really hate facial hair on myself

now that i’ve written all that out, the chance of me being trans doesnt seem to be zero… though it kind of sucks because i wont be able to experiment with my gender presentation trans or not (e.g cant cut my hair or stuff like that due to circumstances) so i guess ill be stuck as a girl anyways haha

sorry for the incoherent rant

Kinda sounds like you might fit under the non binary umbrella?

Wanting to be a guy is the #1 sign of being a guy!
im not dysphoric, im fine being a girl
You don't need dysphoria to be trans! Very much not a requirement. If you think you'd be happier as a guy, that's enough.
i guess ill be stuck as a girl anyways haha
but also if the thought of being "stuck as a girl" is upsetting to you then that says a lot. Many trans people find that a lot of the subtle aspects of life that they don't like and either barely think about or just assume are normal are in fact dysphoria, but it only starts to make sense once they accept themselves.
i would want to present femininely anyways, forgive me but my ideal self would be a femboy…

i would really hate facial hair on myself These also seem pretty normal and not disqualifying to me. Lots of guys don't like their facial hair and prefer to be shaved. Lots of guys present femininely and are still guys.

One of my good friends is Transmasc non-binary, and they have considered getting laser hair removal because they want to be a femboy

Some people question why they "went through such lengths to just be feminine still" but it's what they feel best represents them, which is enough for anyone as far as I'm concerned.

Obviously I cannot tell you what you are, only you can discover your own path, however it does sound very similar to several transmasc NBs I know.

You know there are a few thousand possible genders when you look at the possible combinations (of just the common differential properties of gender).

So skip the label and just be the version of yourself that makes you feel like you. If you need hormones to hit your desired body, it is fine. If you don’t, that is fine too. Just love yourself and be who you want to be.
