I just don’t feel feminine, аlthough I have long hair, I use makeup and I can’t be called tomboy, but I think calling me a woman sounds ridiculous, I’m not sure why, has anyone dealt with this?

    I’m just gonna come out and say what other people seem to be dancing around. These are things that a trans man would say. Not saying that’s necessarily the case for you but like it’s probably worth trying to find someone affirming and professional to discuss dysphoria with.

      Or:

      • a gender-non-conforming woman
      • an enby
      • someone who’s gender fluid
      • some flavor of neurodivergence, BPD, or any other issue associated with an ambivalent sense of self, overestimating how much one should feel like “x” in order to “deserve to be called x”
      • a person in the process of discovering their own gender identity

      So let’s not jump to conclusion. There are many options and being a trans man is just one of them - and one we should never hastily impose on anyone.
