I was a member at another forum (men's forum) for a while and another member posted a topic about men's underwear vs. women's underwear. I realize the unfair society we live in once again, where women can admire each other in women's lingerie forums, but an underwear forum for straight men is unacceptable. I think this public attitude is actually very scary and unfair. Hearing sympathy for the original poster saying "I envy women" in the board somehow triggered the thought that maybe I want to be a woman, once again.

And I do feel actual envy of women sometimes at least. But do you think that my reason for being triggered is rational? Because even though some cis-men say they envy women, nobody in that group really considered it to be.

Feelings are not always logical, but if you feel them they are legitimate for you. It is crazy what things can trigger transgender feelings. A casual comment from that guy is different from someone who may be wondering about their gender. For some people, answers to gender issues take a long time to acquire. Maybe the lucky people are those where there is no doubt right from the start.

They say in life there is no such thing as a bad question so asking anything gives an opportunity to learn and grow.

Could it be ->-bleeped-<- or simply envy over the perceived freedoms of the other sex in the end only you can know for sure.

I liked the matrix oracle piece in another post about being trans is like being the one (which is like being in love).

No one can tell you you are trans you just know it balls to bone.

Unfortunately, for some people (like myself) it is a long road to figuring out if you need to transition or not. What you know as a younger person can actually change as you get to a different place in life. The trick is being happy while you figure  things out.

This is why I'm working towards getting a job and hopefully, a therapist.
