Does this make sense?

I had a cross gender experience that caused gender euphoria, which resulted in dysphoria.



It's not that I can't fit in as a girl ...it's just that I like being a boy more. I have a very quirky trans narrative.  But it's what makes me, me.

Makes sense to me :)

Also have noticed that you're a lot more comfortable in "going with the flow" lately instead of stressing and I just wanted to say good for you man :) You've come a long way already

The danger of stereotypes is that we go from one to another. Feel free to be you.

It sounds like a case of "you can't miss what you never had"

Until you crossed the gender divide, you had no way of knowing that you would prefer to be a guy.  Ya dig?

Actually, a similar thing happened to me but in different circumstances than yours.  When I was a little child I had no dysphoria over anything.  When I was first entering puberty, I had a dream where I was a girl.  After dream:  dysphoria.

Definitely makes sense.  The more male I look, the more I hate looking feminine.  Where I used to feel like I was dressing up a pretty doll, I now feel like a guy in drag.

Yeah, seems like you're a lot more comfortable with things lately.  :)
Oh I'm a lucky man to count on both hands the ones I love
