Am I gender-fluid or something?

Im an mtf, I love wearing girl clothing, makeup, long hair. I'm comfortably called Garry Lynn, she/her, female, but I want to be a guy. I love my feminine body and being me, but I want to be a guy too and have a masculine body, and when I see me in relationships, I see me as a guy with a guy. Does this make me gender fluid or maybe something else

Hey, so I would love to give you some advice but I am a little bit confused. MTF generally means male-to-female, or someone assigned male at birth wishing to become female. However you mentioned that you love your feminine body, so this would indicate that you can were assigned female at birth??? I'm sorry but do you maybe mind clarifying? Thanks!

Fluid means exactly that. One minuted you may feel masculine and comfortable in the role of a male and the next minute you feel uncomfortable as a male but comfortable as a female. The switch can be somewhat sudden and you will be very aware of it when it happens. If you don't feel the switch, there are a number of other possibilities where you feel a mix of both genders at the same time. They are in the non binary classification and rather than duplicate a bunch of work that somebody else has done, I am going to point you to our Wiki and let you see the original work.

Well I feel like both though, there are times where I'm Tomboy like putting my hair up and throwing a baggy hoodie on, and no makeup, and times where I go all out on my clothes and makeup, but I feel hesitant about wearing male clothes because I feel like im undoing all my hard work at transitioning when I'm not. As far as pronouns I don't care. Usually when someone asks my gender now, I just say "Well, female, but I'm kind of in between" I've done some research, that I'm no good at lol, and don't really see a term that's close, but yea I'm no good at that anyways, it took me two weeks to find my foundation colour :p

Hi! As a gender fluid person, I can tell you that it sounds like one of two things. Someone who is gender fluid's gender may be subject to change. One day, you might be male, and the nasty day, or week, or hour, you could be female. Most typical fluid people go from male, female, neither (agendered), or both (androgynous).

What you describe sound to me like you lean towards androgynous. The definition is (paraphrased) having traits of both sexes shared equally. That could mean a male that wears dresses and likes the color pink, or a girl who dresses in guy's clothes and plays sports (stereotypical examples). Anyways, that's just my two cents. Cheers  :P
