    I have never felt at odds with pronouns people use for my assigned gender. Just my personal experience. Maybe it never bothered me because I've been doing the best I can to push anything thoughts that I'm a girl deep, deep inside.

    But in another post for the first time, HappyGirlLucky referred to me as "she" and "her" and I felt an incredible rush. I never thought about being called "him" but it definitely never felt as good as being called "her". Butterflies in the stomach. Warm feelings spreading through my chest. I never imagined it could feel like that.

    Just my feelings.

    Haha, yah that's awesome. It really helps; for me specifically when people pronounce my name right :3
    I get all bubbly inside.

    When one of my longtime friends started casually dropping female pronouns into conversations referring to me, I was like super buzzed.

    Yeah it's one of the things I actually like about being trans. When I first came to this forum, there'd be times where I'd just stare at a post in which somebody called me my preferred name or a girl. Same thing happens every time I get an account on a website that isn't for school (especially considering nobody there knows I'm trans).

    Hello and hiya Jjanon,
    I get that feeling and it makes my whole day, so amazing. It never gets old in my opinion and from my experience.
