CuddlyZombie Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Ok, I've felt like I don't fit in but it never occurred to me it was because of my gender, however I never knew why. I once begged my parents for a boys T-shirt because it was a boy T-shirt (I picked one with a camper van on it because my dad likes camper vans lol) I've always had girly and boyish phases, like sometimes I'll play nicely with barbies other times I'd play violently, I like boy tv pogrammes and I always played boyish games. However I often dress girly, apart from once when I tried to do a discrete cross dress (however my parents noticed and made fun of me, and this old man called me sir not sure if he was joking). In drama the boys said I don't count as a girl, and just little things. I know I'm not transgender, though I thought about it before I knew what genderfluid was. I haven't had much of a chance to explore my male side (although I know I turn a bit camp when I change into a boy mentally) but maybe it's just my personality. However I do notice I change my mannerisim's sometimes. I'm worried this is all in my head? what if it's just a phase? How do I tell my parents? what if they make fun of me?

C-3PO Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Oh man I feel you(especially about coming out), for me it really feels like a phase sometimes(basically, I've got boyish days, agender/neutrois days and ?????what is gender???? days), like I'm just trying to be special. I've been thinking about keeping a "gender diary" where I write every day how I feel about my gender and whether it feels real or not, after a few weeks I could look back on how I generally feel and base on that whether it is real or not. What I've done already on the telling your parents part is talking with my mum about non-binary identities, and kind of hinting that I might feel like that. I hope this helped a little?

Amelyani Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 I'd don't really particularly feel attached to bring female, but also as one who suffers from PCOS, at times feel uncomfortable with my facial hair, not looking how it makes me look like a man. Not am I uncomfortable with my breasts (save I'd like them smaller as they do get in the way). However, I always found myself switching back and forth from socially deemed male and female activities and interests. Even in clothes. Sundays I prefer to dress more genuine and others I prefer to dress more masculine. Could I be genderfluid. Or could I just be a tomboy cigender woman? Link to post Share on other sites
