    I grew up always playing with boy things and never liked dolls or pink and could never make friends with girls. I still really don't have friends that are girls and I'm in my 20s. I have realized that I am definitely not straight. In my mind, I feel like a man. I feel like my conscience is a man. I want to be strong, independent, dominant. I am very feminine looking and people tell me how pretty I am. I wear makeup to go along with being a girl. I cut all my hair off for a while and liked wearing guy clothes. I wish majority of the time that I had a penis and could have sex with a girl. I am still attracted to guys and have a boyfriend. He knows that most of the time I feel like a guy and allows me to be dominant sometimes. I am emotionally attracted to guys, but can only really finish if I think about doing a girl like a man. It is quite confusing. Sometimes I act like a guy and it weirds people out. So most of the time I dress like a girl and try to giggle and be happy like most girls. I try to talk to girls, but they usually totally bore me with all their gossip. I really don't have friends because of this. I just don't know what to do or how to connect with people or even how to have friends being like this. Oh, and I basically tell no one any of this. :confused:

    Do you think that perhaps you're trans? That sounds like quite a bit of gender dysphoria you've got. Either way, I really think that you should express yourself for who you are, not what others set you up to be. If you want to present yourself as a different thing than what is considered normal for girls, then go for it! I know it may seem hard to break out of societal norms (especially in Alabama, I totally get that Bible Belt/Southern blues) but it's the best thing for you. If there are friends who can't accept you for who you are, then as harsh as it sounds, they probably aren't the best friends to be around.

    It sounds like you already have control of your life, so you should think about dressing as a guy or how you see yourself as and act like you feel like it's you. People who matters will support you. It does sound like you're trans, maybe genderfluid if it's not all the time that you feel like a boy. Just try to do what makes you feel the most joyful and content despite other people's looks or comments. That must become less impactant on you when you realize feeling good with what you are is better than repressing it to fit in the expectations of people who dont understand you so it shouldnt matter.
