While looking at other girls and feeling dysphoric at the sametime I sometimes feel the need to hug them. When you are near a person of your target sex and are feeling dysphoric, do you feel the need to do anything strange to that person?
No. I just think she's pretty. I do feel envy/desire/awe type deal with beautiful women like I want to body swap. I just want to be them.
Today I thought at least five guys were watching me, it was odd, I don't think I'm attractive to defy sexuality. One guy was just staring at me, but when this happen I envision myself as a woman. Don't think it's a mind body type deal. He didn't look gay either.
If you're lonely and disconnected from people like a lot of transpersons are, then you may just want human contact and acceptance. Hugs are great for that.
