    I am 17 and I am pretty sure I am transgender. Ever since I was younger I would wear boys clothes and always hanged out with my male family members because I could bond with them better. Then when I was 11-12 my family always tried to force me to buy girls clothing but I hated it so when I turned 13 I got a "male haircut" and started to ONLY wear boys clothes ever special events I had a suit for. When I was 14 I played a guy in a play and I had to buy a binder it was amazing to have a flat chest and look like a guy. I wore that binder till it couldn't fit then bought a new one I prefer he/his and I feel deep down that I was born in the wrong body. So is it just a phase or should I really come out

    A phase stops being a phase once it lasts for that many years. You sound pretty trans to me. Gender therapy should help clear up any other doubts you have.

    yep, pretty much what others said. There's really not much here to elaborate on! You've been living a guy's life and enjoyed it, found comfort in it, so... there's your rather straight answer. Just see a professional to be absolutely sure and don't hesitate.
