Title: Ways how we give our true selves away
Post by: lilacwoman on November 29, 2009, 07:19:39 AM
Justme19's post reminded me of the list I once started compiling of the ways in which we MtF's give ourselves away in the years when we are in denial.

By displaying female body language sunconsciously.
By displaying female face language subconsciously.
By choosing female toys and games and refusing to play male one.
By being unable to resist glancing up at any mention of female clothes talk between mother and other women.
By staring at attrcative girls and women as though we want sex with them when really we are wishing we had their body/face/hair etc.
By deliberatley walking or cycling repeatedly past ladies wear stores or displays - especially well before puberty.
By angrily denying being interested when folk ask us why we are looking at female type things on telly/magazines.
By looking at nice guys faces and wondering what it woudl be like to have a nice guy kiss us. (This is not the same as when gays other guy's crotches and bums)
By looking for , finding and storing fmeale clothes especially before puberty sets in.

Definitely the admiring other girls figures and wishing that was me.   

However, there are a few other big clues, no body hair, patchy facial hair from laser hair removal, two earring holes in each ear, long hair plucked eyebrows. long finger nails (although I keep breaking them!)

I'm suprised that others don't twig about my status daily.   I reckon some people suspect but are too polite or scared to ask.   If I am asked, I certainly intend to tell the truth.

Many would apply to me from childhood onward. I wasn't much interested in clothes  but if you're a girl, the rest of it just sort of leaks out whether you want it to or not. I couldn't pass for a boy at any point in my life.

Yes, this. Since I made my discovery of who I am, I have been doing this more and more.
