Is it odd to do this?

    At times I feel comfortable being a male, and there are time when I feel being a female. However, I want to transition because I've been so unpleased with having a body like a man. I think of it like I'll be getting more testosterone as I get older and it makes me feel like I'll be hideous person with a male physical body. I feel like I would be more comfortable if I transition with hormones and gain more of a female appearance.

    The thing is, after or during transition, I want to still present myself as either male or female, except I'll be female a lot more than male, The exact opposite of how I am now.

    Basically, I feel that being a male who presents themselves as either gender doesn't make me feel comfortable with myself. I feel that being a female who presents themselves as either gender is more of a way for me to feel better.

    It's not odd, because only you can be you! If you feel like you will be more comfortable in a female body, go for it. You'll still have the same gender identity as you has before (I believe, though if it changes that's ok). You sound like you're genderfluid, and I know there are plenty of people out there with this identity so don't worry about being weird!

    I don't think that's odd at all. Remember, there's no 'right way' to do gender or your identity. You are who you are.

    You sound genderfluid

    Keep in mind, it is not easy for a non-binary person to transition. However, if you really feel you want this, you can try your utmost.

    If that's what you want, then it's not odd at all. :slight_smile:

    I feel the exact same way, except I was born female but would rather be male and be genderfluid in a male body. It's not weird at all and if it is then you're not the only one. I literally am the exact same way except flipping the genders. Not crazy at all, I'm glad I'm not the only one this way.
