I have always been unconfident, specially in the early teenage years, but mainly because of bullying. i couldn't, and still can't, relate or have a good friendship with most guys. for a long time i just tought that i was just a little feminine and got a long better with girls, and i kinda like some masculine aspects of my body, like the square-shaped face, body hair or the growing beard, heck, sometimes i even like my penis. but recently i downloaded that faceapp app and it contais a feature to "see yourself as the other gender". i mean, politically, i don't agree with the way that its worded, but when i did try it i began question if i really like being in my skin. i'm just thinking that, if i was afab, i wouldn't even question this in the first place and i would still like(or like even more) my features. i tought that that doubt would go away in the next day, but here i am. I just wish that i had been born a girl or that the famous gender-changing buttom existed.

I imagined being a girl before, but i would always say to myself that it doesn't mean nothing, 'cause i think that i'm a pretty guy, but now i think that i would be a hell prettier girl.

I would ask this question on my twitter, but i think people there would be way more agressive answering this question.

Am i a trans girl?? i don't know if i feel comfortable with she/her pronoums, but maybe it's because i still look at myself as being a man, like, by having masculine features, because when i fantasize with my girl routine with the Faceapp version of myself, i feel just nice being called by feminine pronoums.

I did a test on the internet and it said i'm bigender, but i still don't know if that sounds right for me.

Welcome to the Forums Hal.  Your feelings and questions are pretty standard for what people come here with.  I think you will feel fine tossing ideas around with our other members here.  If you can, I would suggest finding and going to a Therapist who deals with Transgender people to really get you on the road.  There is no one way to be Trans and there is no single solution for our lives.

Hi Hal, welcome to the forum.  ☺️  Several things you said ring of my thoughts and experiences, so I think you're on the right track to be questioning and looking for answers.

That's a great way of putting it and a definite clue for you.  Many people here have had the same thought.  Many different experiences have been posted throughout the forum and one thing I've done is just reading those to help me examine my own feelings.  This is a friendly, supportive place and there are no wrong questions, so post freely.  I hope you find what you are looking for!

 

Hugs,

Tori

I think you can find a definition on the internet for anything but, that does not define you. It is how you feel, which makes you who you are. A label can be just as nerve wrecking as not having a word to describe yourself. I would just take it slow and read a lot. Get to know people that seem to say they feel things you can relate to. They will be good friends to have in any event.

      I went to work with my husband today.  He asked me this morning if I wanted to go...of course I said yes.  I enjoy being with him, and getting away from the house for a little while.  He spent half the day in his office, which I think is why he asked me along.  He made a nest in the corner for me, where I can plug in my laptop and do my stuff...nobody minds me being there.     But today ended up with a strange opportunity.  I had a conversation with my husband's boss, the company owner.  They want some basic graphic design work done, so I think they might hire me to do it.  Nothing fancy, not nearly as complicated as what I've attempted to do for our county.  So I have a meeting with them on Monday, just to look at some details and see if I can do the work they want.  And especially talk about when they need it done, because I still work pretty slowly.  I don't really need or want the money, but its nice to feel like I can do something again.

      I went to WM today with the objective of buying sandals: they would be women's, but look like men's; they would be brown or black, not white.  I realized the cheapest way to go  was to go for flip-flops, which I observed were prevalent in the store. So I checked out the women's.  Flowers. White shiny straps. Nothing that could possibly be men's. The best deal was one flip flop for $3.98.  At first I thought that was a pair, then, nope.  And because I comparison shop (is there the same thing in men's?) I found the cheapest over there was $6.98 for a pair of flip flops in green that also match my women's cargo shorts that I love.  Doing the math, finding the pink tax.  Rip off.  I have found a blue tax this way, but usually they charge women more for something than they do men. I guess women tend to lose one flip flop at a time or something. Weird.  The pairs were a lot higher.   So, following my rule, but unhappy with it, I bought the green men's flip flops.  They were the cheapest.  Later wife of mine complimented how masculine I look in my matching shorts and flip-flops.  Inward groan. We have not discussed the Subject in a long time because I think she forgets it is there as soon as the conversation ends.  Or she is trying to talk me out of this.  Not sure.  We only discuss it when necessary, and how often do most couples discuss whether one spouse is one sex or the other? Outside of here, I mean.  So we very seldom talk about it and she is happier if she does not know about it. Super stealth.  I do the laundry and I shower in the shower in the wing away  from the master bed room so I have my own shower.

      Aww, shucks! Thank you, @Ashley0616 and @Timi! I find taking a picture of myself so difficult.

      You're pretty! It's nice to see a face.

      I'm very glad that everything worked out even better than you thought. It's a tough spot to be in and I know the exact feelings. I'm still waiting to apply for divorce under abandonment so I officially can meet someone who one day I can call someone my prince or my queen. Although the desire for someone is fading because of everything. it's even more amazing that she was your high school sweetheart! Looking forward to the next entry.

      Awww thanks for listening everyone. I have another 5-6 songs in this style that I started recording at the same time, so hopefully I’ll finish the next release soon.   Yes, exactly. Everything was easier about this project, mainly because it felt authentic. The energy was very different, because it was such a pleasure to express myself without a filter. I laughed a lot.

      Thanks for listening @Mmindy.   You’re welcome @April Marie. I think Sally Can’t Dance is an underrated album.

      Well I had an interview with the local Ford Dealership for an opening in the parts dept. It sounded positive. I was told I would here by tomorrow morning.    Other than that just sticking around the house. I haven't done much, the weather is cold and yucky. Doesn't look like good weather till Sunday. Maybe tomorrow I'll fire up the heater in the garage and see about getting the other brake hose put on the Explorer.   Have a good rest of your day/evening.   Hugs, Kymmie

      Maybe they called me he/him at the dealership because I completely forgot my mascara! Eyeliner without mascara…a bold new trend among the helplessly lost! :)   Fixed that!
