Greetings from Korea!

[kjohn13]

Hello my name is John Im 20 years old from south korea I am male I dont have any alternative sexualities just purely straight

The reason why I joined this community however is that, there were moments in my life when I was a little kid when I used to like wearing female clothes, I always hanged around with girls at the kinder garden, also I enjoy taking both male and female role during my masturbation's.
I do believe that there is a part of me that's girly but I was starting to questioning if transgendering would be a choice in my life

I haven't questioned about my sexuality until yesterday when I met a lesbian on a social game whom I was going to start a romantic relationship, I was on a female avatar and then confessed later that I was in fact a guy, she had no problem with it but she told me that she kinda had this feeling that there's a woman inside of me and she could help me out on my transition to a woman

The fact is I feel just ok and normal about my sexuality but I was thinking about it last night when I was sleeping

"What if there is really a woman inside of me that wants to come out?"
"Would I feel much more realized and more of myself when comunicating with people if I transgender?" I think so...
"Am I willing to start a romantic relationship with a guy when I transition?" I think so

When I was talking with the lesbian woman she said that if I keep repressing my female feelings I'm only going to hurt myself more, but the fact is I never felt hurted when I was going back to my man state.

I know this is not the appropiate topic where I can submitting an informational request on the introduction forum, but I really wanted to know and need some help through my self journey....

Any feedback or recommendations would be appreciated and If you would like to other things about myself please let me know

Hi John

Welcome to the forum. I'm new here too ^_^ I hope you'll be able to find the answer to all your questions with the help of the others here. But I have a feeling you already know the answers. It's in your intro after all

Hugs

It is safe to say, John, that nearly every member here had, at one time or another, the question in their mind, "I wonder if ..."

The only way I know of finding that answer is to explore the possibility.  In my own case, I spent decades in denial and trying to cope with an undiagnosed gender dysphoria.  It is best, I think, to sort these issues out when you are young.

We have several other Korean members here.  The one best known to me is "Barbie" from that large volcanic island south of the peninsula.

Hi John,

There are lots of answers here you just need to follow your questions. There is nothing wrong in how you feel and there is nothing wrong in exploring your sexuality and gender identity. Indeed that is what many of us have done and many of us have reached a peaceful life after a lot of turmoil.

Hugs

Hi John,

A big Aussie welcome to Susan's family. It's good of you to drop in and say "Hi". Hope you like it here, and you stay for a while.

There is a mountain of information, resources and friendship waiting for you here, you just need to jump in start talking and ask any question you like. You're quite safe here and we are very accepting.

To a degree, your friend may be right in so far as being hurt by repressed feelings. It's certainly worth a try to delve into your gender personality.

Looking forward to hearing more of your story in time to come, but in the meantime, be safe, well and happy.

Lotsa huggs
Catherine
