Hey newbie here, FtM. I've been visiting this site for a few months now, just never really knew what to say.
I've had problems with my physical sex for as long as I remember, with my earliest memories of "phantom genitalia" experiences and insisting I was male starting around age 4 or so. I'm 24 now and been through the phase where I tried to force myself to be the girl my family wanted me to be and to date and all that. Dating really did not work out. I've always been asexual but also at times frustrated with that, since my body seems to be what stunts me there.
I'm out to very few people, most just assume I'm butch or something. To be honest, outing myself is something I find terrifying, particularly with family and with how it could affect my career opportunities. I don't plan on surgeries or anything drastic any time soon, but just looking to be more comfortable and to have people who relate and have advice for working with the situation? Not sure, but it's cool to simply know there are others who get this stuff and I'm not crazy, hahah.
Anyway, hi, glad to meet you, and looking forward to gaining more insight from the resources here.
