[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can anyone relate to this? I am bi—though I’ve only had relationships with men and am married to a man. Since I was a kid, I’ve sort of gone through phases of feeling feminine and wearing a lot of dresses and makeup and phases of feeling masculine and wanting to wear clothes traditionally made for men. As an 8 or 9 year old, I used to wear shorts under my pants rather than girl’s underwear, and even sometimes put a sock between my legs because I wanted to feel what it would be like to have male genitalia.

I don’t think I’m trans and I don’t want to transition, but I’m also not satisfied with being wholly female.

Can anyone relate to this? Do I sound crazy?[/quote]

You don't sound crazy, but you sound like you have a very very very restrictive view of what it means to be feminine. Kinda outdated. You can be feminine and wear shorts and pants, even cowboy boots if you want. This has nothing to do with being trans imo.[/quote]

OP here. Maybe I’m not being clear. There have been times I have wanted to be a man, and other times when I’ve been happy being a woman. It ebbs and flows. I fantasize about having sex with men and women. It goes well beyond clothing.[/quote]

It sounds like you just have a healthy openness with yourself and allowing yourself to feel different things.  [/quote]

Hey OP, this poster has some serious hang ups with people identifying as trans or NB for some reason.  I’m not sure why they’re gaslighting you so much but it’s a pretty good example of why trans and nonbinary people practice radical inclusivity.  You won’t have trans people telling you how you identify and arguing with your lives experience like this.

You’ve realized you aren’t cis.  Your egg is cracking.  That’s a term for essentially coming out to yourself as trans or nonbinary.  Don’t listen to cis people that think they get to tell you how you identify.

I saw this (or the replies) and wonder if you relate to it?

Hey PP, you’re as wrong to assertively tell her she’s trans/enby as another poster would be to assertively tell her she’s cis. She shouldn’t listen to cis people who think they get to tell her how to identify, and also she shouldn’t  listen to trans people who are sure they know that her “egg is cracking”.

She asked for experiences, and got them. Now it’s for OP to decide, or to not decide. [/quote]
