    I'm mentally unstable enough as it is and I can't go through this. I don't want to be seen as a freak by everyone and myself. I just want to be a girl.

    Why does this exist?

    No-one wants to be trans.

    However, you're not a freak. You just screwed over at birth, like we all did.

    I think it exists because we are never 100% male and female but most people don't see it. They think you can only be red or blue but not purple and inside your head you can't be anything other that is seen from the outside. Why should there be genders socially? What does it affect really? There is societies that have more genders than one. Like Bugis. Gender in Bugis society - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    I don't want to be trans either. :frowning2: I am a man but whay can't I be happy as a tomboy or butch? I don't know and it makes it worse. Deep down I don't know how to explain this. I just know this is real.

    Maybe but I'd say the vast majority of us would like to have been born our desired sex.

    Well...being trans is better than being completely unaware or in denial...but you know, it's not like it has a lot of redeeming features...

    I like to be trans. The problem is the society.

    When I figured out I was trans, it really made me feel better and I can actually be happy now. It's because my life finally makes sense, I make sense. Not because "yay, I'm trans" but "shit, I'm a dude"

    Two totally different things really. Yes, I wish I had just been born with the right body, but being trans is the next best thing.

    I've had a lot of thoughts about not being able to go through with it, that I'm not strong enough mentally or emotionally, and that it would just be easier to give in. But that's when I remember that's what I've been doing most of my life and it only made me miserable and angry.

    It's better to be trans than live a lie.

    Nah, I don't like being trans either. If I had a say in the matter, I'd be a cis guy born with everything I was supposed to and that would be that.

    But, alas. C'est la vie.

    The best any of us can do is try and make things better with the resources we have. If that means transitioning, go for it. If that means updating your wardrobe, there you go. If that means finding accepting people, search away.

    You didn't ask to be trans so it's not something you can blame yourself for being. That's your reality. It's how you were born and it's how you're living. Nothing you should be shamed for. And regardless, if someone could choose to be trans, it's not a choice to be shamed for either.

    Hang in there. (*hug*)

    I concur, I feel alot better after accepting myself as trans then trying to live as a guy, a lie a prisoner inside my own body, whatever you please.
    Do I wish I was born a girl? You bet your arse I do. But it can't be changed... What can change is what I am now. Will I go through 2-3 years of public shunning and ostracization over it? Hell yea... Because even though I'm still early on this journey I'm happier and happier with my progress every week. I know that at the end I'll be just be so happy! My mother says that it is because "God isn't perfect, he makes mistakes, with you he put your female soul into a male body"
    However every person on this planet has their own Crucible to go through, though the severity and difficulty of it varies, "This is my story" this was the hand I was dealt in life so be it, regardless of how bad it was I will do my best to make it the best

    I'm a "grumpy stumpy" when it comes to my outlook on me being trans. Sure it sucks and if I could be cis, I'd jump on that and I have moments where my internalized transphobia really shines; but it's really just pointless to beat myself up over it and I might as well turn that negative energy into something positive and help it mold me into who the guy I should have been from the start.

    I recall submitting to a trans quote blog about how I was told when I was a church goer that before we meet our mothers, we meet with God and our lives are planned in advance (if the idea of God's Plan is true).

    With that in mind, some of us are given higher mountains to climb, more difficult puzzles to solve, and harder challenges to conquer. Some of us are just given heavier crosses to carry; and that's how I see being trans as sometimes. There wasn't so much a "mistake" (assuming God is without imperfections), but a call to some of us to take on a task more tough than some can endure. I remember sort of bringing it to a close with something like "perhaps god separated me from my manhood because he knows I'm strong enough to find it on my own".

    It's an interesting way to view the situation, especially if you're spiritual or religious. I'm not, but it was a thought that came to mind.

    I don't like being trans either :tears:
    Every day I wish I could be a cis guy but unfortunately that's not possible.

    Yeah, it's a good approach.
    While no-one wants to be trans, it's better to change into your real gender than stay as the wrong one. But if it were possible to choose, no-one would want to be born in the wrong gender and have to change. At least that's what I'd assume.

    You guys and ladies are all beautiful and I'm so glad you're in the world. The world would be boring without everyone across the sexuality and gender spectrum

    Just sayin. <3 <3 <3
