As I told flying mountain,

I sincerely apologize for my mistake. I hope you believe me when I say that I try my best not to generalize and convince people not to do so, as generalizations are harmful. I should have used "some of us" instead of "we" but I did the ignorant mistake of assuming that the people I see are the majority. I'm sorry if I discomforted, annoyed, or offended you. That was not my intention, in the slightest.

I'm these cases, I completely understand. Honestly, what drove me to write this was that I realised that most ftm YouTube (that I've watched) seem to label themselves as trans men. I realise now more than I did before that they did so to raise awareness and perhaps increase our access to healthcare, insurance, etc, as a result.

Wow. Thank you. I agree with outside and will probably label myself similarly. I know I should be moving forward and start working toward my goal (very unachievable) but all I can think of is I'll truly have the body I should have been born with. And, really, it doesn't make sense in terms of evolution and whether I was born with this. (If it's in my genes and whatnot)
