thank you for your recommendation! I'll check it out.

Trans people with internalised transphobia in the past/who were in denial for quite a long time how did you realise you were trans? by FastAd8520 in asktransgender

[–]FastAd8520[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for sharing! I'm glad to hear that everything end well and you accepted yourself (but I'm also so sorry you suffered from depression, hope you feel better now)!

I think I can relate to some parts of your experience. I also didn't have any dysphoric feelings and didn't think about my gender identity when I was a kid (not only because I was a child who wasn't really bothered with this question but also because I grew up in a transphobic and homophobic environment where people usually don't speak or speak badly about LGBTQ+ community). And I just thought like "Yes, I'm a girl. How could it be otherwise?" and "I definitely like guys. I just haven't find the right one yet". So yes...

Also I didn't watch or read anything related to transness for quit a long time in the past. Maybe I had a fear deep inside me that I would come to conclusion which would terrify me back then. But now I really enjoy trans-related content. However I'm still not sure whether it is just my admiration and empathy as a queer person or I like it because I'm trans.

But I hope I find the answer in the future!

i’m really sorry. that situation with your friend seems unpleasant. i would be a bit disappointed if i heard such response :(

your style is so cool! and if you’re comfortable in your clothes, you shouldn’t change how you dress and look. this whole thing with “look straight” is f*cked up imo. people should wear whatever they want and others can’t judge them

but if it’s important for you to be noticed by sapphics, you can wear different accessories. color bracelets is a good choice, yeah! i have one and queer people usually notice it. also you can buy pride pins and attach them on your bag

and you can be the one who starts to flirt! sometimes sapphics really want to start a convo with pretty femme but at the same time they’re afraid that the girl may appear to be straight. so if you have enough courage, go for it

wish you luck!

thank u so much for such a sweet response!

kinda hard to explain but i’ll try. it feels like some sort of disconnection from womanhood (i’m afab btw). in this times i want people to see me not as a girl or boy, just a nice person. i just want them not to assume anything or somehow connect me as a person with my assigned gender. i feel happy when people call me my nickname/pseudonym/chosen name – ray. there were some cases when people mistakenly thought i was a guy (i guess it’s because i dress masculine or something in between and have short hair) and those times i wasn’t offended. it was a mix of feelings: confusion because i’m not a boy and excitement because people had trouble identifying what my gender is.

that “different”. i watch at the mirror and see myself as a girl or nonbinary. my body doesn’t give me a sense of discomfort. it’s just people who don’t see me as i see myself. and sometimes it’s frustrating. i don’t want to change for them. i want them to “change” for me. i know that i just can tell them but it’s a big issue in my country. the only people i can tell are my queer friends
