    Hey, I'm a girl by birth certificate and was wondering if I am actually transgender (boy I'm girls body). When I was younger I used to keep my hair short and loved it when I wore my male cousins clothes for that one day and wanted to wear his clothes again. I'm a lesbian I see my breasts as a form of sexual entertainment and I feel as though that between my legs that there should have been a penis and not a vagina. I'm not willing to change by hrt yet due to its expensive costs. I started puberty when I was in year2 and had periods when I was in year4. Does any other transgender have this problem?

    I'm pretty sure your menstrual cycle has nothing to do with your gender identity.
    I have female friends who are hetero, and content with their birth gender, who find their breasts entertaining, too, but I get what you're saying.

    The key element here is that you feel like you should have a penis. Do you feel like this all the time? I drift between really, really wanting to be physically male ... and just "dealing" with my birth-body. I identify as genderfluid.

    My advice to you is, since you're young (and I genuinely mean that not as an insult, but as reference to your bodily changes as you grow), is to let things flow. Labeling isn't necessary. For the time being, I would become very in tune with your body, and listen closely to it. I denied myself for a long time, especially at your age.
