Hi,
So after starting and stopping HRT I'm pretty sure I'm not transsexual but it doesn't mean it ends I guess :-\.
I think I maybe androgyne. I don't think I could take the physical changes induced by HRT, but I also found out it doesn't mean gender issues end there. I feel like I identify with the male gender at sometimes and female other times. Or I will identify as something different entirely that I don't know exactly what I am really. Or I will identify as a guy and a girl. I realize somedays I will be fine as male, other days I'd rather be a girl.
ARGH it's confusing. I wish I could be one or other but it seems more like I am somewhere smack in the middle. I sometimes really dislike gendered anything altogether, it's such a frustration that I wish didn't exist.
So, the question is, do other androgynes know what I am talking about?
Ohh Yes.

Ohh Yes.
Pica pretty much summed it up. Welcome to our ranks.
I understand too.
Me too, I did a year of RLT and then pulled back about 8% or so, enough not to do HRT or SRS, but not enough to 'make me a man' either. Its possible to find a level, but for each of us, we are making it up as we go, so its a question of the possible, not the path.
Howdy, been there and had the same thoughts and feelings. Welcome to the club :D

Yes, all too well! I did RLT for over a year, and since then have settled into a "no man's land" (pun absolutely intended ;D) between binary gender. I am simply me, whatever gender that might or might not be, and for the most part that is OK. I do have good days and bad days with this. I do believe it would easier to be one or the other. But that doesn't seem to be a proper fit for me. Sometimes I do think of transitioning again. If the time seems right... I will.

Hey findingreason. Sounds like you still have some figuring out to do. Give an androgyne handle a go and see if it fits. Come play in the forest.
also take a look at the other non-binary ways of being.
Gender identity can be fluid, and/or it may be that (gender) expression is fluid. Be open to lots of possibilities, even ones that have not been "common" here.

Reb the Trickster. You sound like some historical figure. Maybe someone who caused a riot or mutiny or something like that. :P
I'm definitely the type to cause a riot or mutiny, but I would instigate it and let others do the work.

Yeah, just get it going and sit back and watch the fun.
