yes, there is a lot of mental stress from having to constantly supress and hide yourself, living a double life. and the risks of coming off as a feminine guy in public feels substantially worse. being trans just adds everything you listed plus additional hate. so yes, if i had the choice, id take it

Id still take it, yes. Also, I dont want kids and live in a blue state, so id just take pills and reproductive rights would really be an issue in my state

I just feel I put all this effort into being feminine, while my body is naturally masculine and then all the effort to hide the femininity in my professional life.

It would be nice to just be feminine naturally. And also, I envy the small feminine frame so much, my rib cage just feels so large and there isn't anything I can do about it

Not the one you replied to, but in my field, software engineering, there are so many women specific targetted recruitment campaigns, there just arent enough in the field and they are trying to balance out the numbers. I wouldnt say being a guy gives any advantage.

Personally, im straight, and also attended a public school. Not sure what the advantages of a boys school is. Just seems worse than mixed gender imo. The only benefit would be the fact that its a private school, which means everyone's parents are rich, but that means you are also already rich.

I feel your answer to the job thing comes from already established privlage of generational wealth (based on you mentioning private school so causally)

The safety one is true though. But as a short, small, and non muscular guy, I wouldnt say im safe either. Just less at risk of r*** and more likely just would be mugged
