    Hi, ive only posted on here once before but recently ive been a lot more comfortable in my skin and couldnt care less what people think cause im happy in my skinny jeans and boys tshirts so ive been out and bought a few more of the things im comfortable in and just feel i can then be true to me and my personality but when i put the clothes on that i would have worn only a couple months ago im just disgusted and hate the way it feels. They are not girlie as ive always been a tom boy from birth haha just vest tops or something with birds or a girlie imag on them. I look in the mirror and feel so fake.

    The question is....is this sudden change normal? I thought it would gave been more gradual. Dont get me wrong im not butch but have had the odd old person walk into me and say "sorry son" despite a D chest lol :slight_smile:

    I would say it is quite normal. I think in general people go through style changes. I mean if I read this correctly you seem to have found some inner self-confidence and you may have figured out what you really like to wear. When I was in high school, I finally went shopping for myself and bought things I really wanted to wear. I felt more independent. Now when I see what I wore before I kind of laugh at how I ever wore what I wore. And yeah some people may never understand your look (like the old person), but you wear what makes you comfortable. :slight_smile:
