    Hello there.
    I am quite new to this forum, having replied to a post once or twice.
    I am 19 years old and I have always identified myself as a female, since I knew no other way to be, for I know I am not 100% male either. I have always been something like a half female and half male. I don't know what to consider myself as, since I know not if there is a word for people like me. English is not my native language by the way, so I apologize if my writing is hard to read or makes no sense.
    So I just thought I'd write this as a hello and to ask for advice.
    Thank you for reading. :slight_smile:

    Hello there and welcome to the forum! :slight_smile: You're not alone, there are plenty of other people who are in the same situation as you. Actually, there are quite a few labels that may fit how you're feeling. You might want to post a new thread in the Gender Identity and Expression sub-forum. I think you'll find some excellent advice and explanations there! :slight_smile: Also, you did a great job with your English.

    Firstly, welcome to EC. :slight_smile: Second, your English is impeccable; I didn't know you were from Finland until I looked under your name, where your location is listed.

    Third, I just have to agree with what Spartan said; go lurk around the "Gender Identity and Expression" forum. I tried to think what you might be, but I don't think "genderfluid" quite fits if you feel you're half and half, and I'm not sure if "bigender" is a word anyone actually uses. :astonished:

    But anyways, welcome. :smilewave
