    Okay, so lately something pretty weird has been happening. I've been dressing and going out more like a girl, no binder or anything, and I don't really get why. I know I'm a man, in no way do I see a future with me staying with this body, but I do envy girls. They get to wear all these really cute clothes, wear make-up, their body shape, and just the fact that they can look so sexy at times makes me jealous. I want to be a guy, amd of course I'm still going to wear makeup, I like it, big deal, but I'm not sure why exactly I've been doing this. I am not genderqueer or genderfluid, of that I am positive, because I know I'm a man stuck in a womens body. So, is this cross-dressing? Am I not trans enough?

    Even when I first realized I was a man I still loved womens clothing. I love the dresses, leggings, skirte, shorts, all of that. I like the designs on their clothes and everything. I love their long eyelashes and big eyes and lips, I do. I've gone out dressed like a woman a few times recently, and I didn't feel like a girl whatsoever, I felt like I was cross-dressing, and even then I dreaded looking down at the two balls of fat in my chest, even catching a glimpse at the thing between my legs made me cringe. Bleh. But, its been really confusing really. I can imagine myself dressed as a girl, getting hit on as a girl, being seen as one, but when I imagine myself living my dream as a famous musician, I can only see a man, I hate imagining myself as a girl preforming onstage, I can only visualize a man.

    So, whats up? I'm really confused and don't really know what to do. Am I cross dresser? Or am I not, dare I say it, not trans enough? Please help.

    You sound a lot like what most cross dressers sound like, but its up to you how you want to define yourself.
    As for the not being trans enough thing, I doubt how you want to dress should determine that. If you know you're a man who enjoys women's clothing, no one should be able to tell you you're not trans based on fashion choices.

    Like Kreiger says, you sound like a male cross-dresser!

    Who can blame you, girls clothes are cute as heck!

    Don't worry about it, your most likely just a guy who enjoys wearing girls cloths. I'm a guy, love being a guy and I also enjoy wearing girls cloths too. There is something about them the softness, the flash, freedom they provide that feels so nice. Sometimes, I love to hang out at home in a dress or a skirt, the rest of me is all male just in dress or skirt. They feel so nice and so free and I love the feeling of tights on my legs, they keep me so warm when its cold out and just feel amazing. I really don't know why they dont make skirts and dresses for men. I think it's about time, men wore dresses and skirts without worrying being made fun of.
