Hey everyone, I'm Jasmine (a name I kinda want to use on this site) and Genser confused. Anyway, I'm very shy and awkward around people. I work in the military and will be getting out a year and a half. I'm planning on going to college afterward. I love listening to and searching for new music. I love to play songs and make up my own on my guitar and I want to learn to play on more stringed instruments like the violin, cello, and banjo. I want to learn to play the piano and I have layed the alto saxophone before. I learned a lot about myself in the military and now I'm searching for myself on my gender identity because I'm finally realizing and accepting that I have gender identity issues. I'm scared to talk to others IRL about it, but my mother knows to some extent. I love animals and I want to travel to places like tokyo, france, italy, canada, and the himalayas. I'm very imaginative and I'm interested in art, animation, writing, music production, and filmmaking. I also love learning about astronomy, mathematics, and engineering and figuring out how things work. I can't really connect with guys and masculinity when it comes to socializing with them about girls. I always feel offended around them. Every now and then, I would always have feelings about I should've been a girl and I have been sad a little about not being a girl. I don't really mind when I'm actually referred to as a woman sometimes, and I don't mind being called a male either. But I have a feeling that I'm supposed to be a woman. I'm still gender confused. I crossdress in private just feel like myself. I picture myself being held in someone's arms and feeling protected. I tried a few times to connect with girls in relationships, but I can't see myself as that supposed masculine male who is there for the girl all the time. I keep seeing myself as the stereotypical female role in a relationship. I like watching cartoons as well and my favorite show right now is My Little Pony:Friendship is Magic. My favorite pony is Fluttershy because she is quiet and reclusive like me in real life. I don't mind if I'm referred to as she or he. I'm considering transition and seeing a gender therapist after I get out of the military, but I hear horror stories about regretters from TV and i get scared about it. I feel a little more when I imagine myself as a girl. That is all I can say for myself for now in this introduction.
Same here. I only have two friends in the same brigade who understand me about my issue. Thanks for those words. It's good to not hear negative remarks every once in a while.
