Quote from: FlightlessFootwear on September 02, 2017, 12:17:24 AMI recently came to the conclusion that my gender identity is female, and while I like some stereotypically feminine things I also still like a lot of more stereotypically masculine things. Considering who I want to be, I am imagining myself as female but as somewhat of a tomboy. I understand that this doesn't make me any less trans or any less female, but I worry about other people still seeing me as male underneath because of this. For example, I don't have much interest in makeup and I can see myself still wearing more masculine attire at least some of the time (I am looking more to add feminine attire to my wardrobe rather than replacing my old clothing entirely.) I want to note that I don't want to present as a feminine guy, but as a girl with a balance between femininity and masculinity.I guess I'm also still feeling a little bit like I'm faking, even though I am finding myself happier identifying as a girl. I suppose it just takes time to adjust ones mindset and to break out of the stereotypes that have been dug into my brain for so long.
