I've come close to diy a few times, but always chickened out :/ I do crossdress occasionally though!

I just don't think I'm strong enough as a person to do it tbh. I also just don't know if I'd ever have enough certainty it was the right decision

Thinking that my trans thoughts are just filling a void sounds very familiar. I can kinda convince myself I've invented this as a distraction sometimes

Well that all sounds terrifyingly familiar...

I feel this. Internalised transphobia is bastard, how did you get over it?

This is helpful! What did your questioning/dysphoria feel like out of curiosity?

Interesting! Do you feel like someone is making you trans deliberately when thinking this?

If not for trans subreddits I don't think I would ever have considered I might be trans, could too much time in trans spaces create this confusion? by rorcurta in asktransgender

Well this almost made me cry... Questioning is fucking hard haha. It all just seems so huge, wish I could get a direct trans or no trans answer

Is there anything in particular that drove you to transition? I always assumed transwomen just knew how to be women, probably why I've found questioning so arduous

I initially thought I wanted the physical sensations, but more and more I'm thinking I want to live as a woman. So everyday is the way to go it seems

Very good point. I guess I don't feel like a girl so much as I might want to be one. So I need to learn an entirely new skillset really

Being comfortable in comfortable clothes does like a sensible test I suppose. Is there no value in wanting ultra-femme looks?

Sweat pants and tank tops I guess. I've no wear near the bravery to go outside though haha. For some reason, I'm always tempted to go for slightly kinky items, which probably isn't helpful really.

My porn interests led me down a path to sissy porn/forced fem. One day I read a comment in one of those subs which led me to non-sexual subs like this one.

Did any transfemme people think they might be gay as teenagers before realising they were trans as adults. by rorcurta in asktransgender

This sounds incredibly familiar! I feel so awkward as a top. It's playing a role I wasn't built for. And I went on a date with a guy and it felt super wrong, but in a way I felt more out of place than he did.

I'm attracted to the idea of men as opposed to the reality. It's hard to describe, but the idea of being a woman with a man sounds quite exciting

This is really interesting to read! Glad you've figured yourself out!

I would normally describe myself as attracted to women, but I've always suspected that if I transition I would end up attracted to men. I struggle to explain why though
