Female main characters will always get me more invested, as a general rule.

The book: "She blah blah blah"

Yall, do you have anything someone might find relatable if they turned out to be trans? Asking for a friend. For totally cis reasons.;)

The way you envision yourself

Feeling irrationally envious of the trans folk you know

I have an enby friend who socially transitioned a few months before I first started questioning my gender, and I was in utter awe of their pronouns, gender expression, and general gender. I'm totally cis (/s)

Oh, since you seem to be thinking about this a bunch: Have you talk to your mom about either clothes or makeup? Obviously none of that is essential, but it can be helpful to learn some background "How do I interface with the commodity culture" information if you want an easier time. I was unfortunately in the position where my mom had passed away by the time I started my transition, so I had to deal with the awkwardness of either asking a friend or going online when one wasn't around.

Interestingly enough I haven't. My parents are on the older range. I have bought *some* fem clothes but I still need to get more (such as programmer socks)

I feel like that's just something I have to figure it out myself

do you see yourself as a man? Or something else? 

Something I did really early on was use she/her pronouns basically everywhere online because I liked them better (they are the superior set of pronouns, after all :P).

Wdym by see myself? Like when I picture myself...when I picture myself, or Myself? The reflection, or the reflection with a few modifications (which honestly is less than a few weeks or so ago)? Sometimes I don't like what I see, sometimes I do.

I mean...I've considered/wanted to use she/her pronouns online for years now (and finally am now), but most of the time I just didn't set pronouns or used he/him.

Edit: I even tried to get ppl to think of me as a girl...but never directly said "I am a guy" or "I am a girl" or what pronouns I use. Someone once asked if I was a girl and I basically got defensive and said like "I never confirmed nor denied if I'm a guy or girl." I also realise I could be enby, gender-fluid, something else,....or cis

imagine if you're walking through a field of pink flowers. Who is that person? What do they look like?

It's kinda hard to imagine something when I know:

  • What I would actually look like
  • What I might want to look like if I'm trans

One of the things I've related when reading stuff in the past few days is that envy, I think. I've seen ppl say choosing female characters, but I honestly don't play that many videogames, and only had a female character maybe once (for a short time I believe). I also play D&D (a roleplaying game), but my characters are never female, even if I consider it. I guess I just think it would be too weird? I do, however, write female characters in writing, "to have variety." Tho in reality I would probably always or nearly always write female characters if I didn't think that wouldn't come across as odd. Depends on the stereotypes for me ig, but I probably agree w/u on that.

 

Edit: I've actually never done much writing before two weeks ago, and I enjoyed writing female characters then. Whenever I thought about starting a story in the months/weeks prior, I always obsessed about what gender to make the characters. Also, I like reading books with FMCs (female main characters) like Shallan hehe (I know most people hate her but she's my fave character).

 

Edit again: read the whole thing, this might sound odd at first: What are/were your thoughts when you think/thought of guys? I don't mean in a romantic/attraction sense, but, like, do/did (before you realized you were trans, maybe even after idk) ever think of yourself belonging with them? What about online (like forums or the like)? Did you imagine guys there as...I guess dudebros, or just like...idk how to explain it. I guess online I like talking to girls/women (hopefully that doesn't sound bad), and guys...less so. Tho I did talk to at least one guy who I "liked" (as in, was sort of a friend with, not as in being "attracted" to.) IRL...the story's different. Since I'm pretty/very introverted.

I love Shallan I made fanart of her today 🙂

Interesting. I can't help that much; my mental perception has always been incongruent with my physical body.

I hated being seen as a guy okay I think it's worse to be a guy than a girl

And also she/her pronouns are just better than he/him

You're ahead of me in that regard then.

that's true

I used to think everyone want to secretly be the opposite gender

idk what makes pronouns cool I think it just tends to be what makes you happiest

I guess so...but I still don't even know if I'm trans.

I think you might have a good sense. 

Even at my point I'm still not completely certain about anything

Havent you been using she/her pronouns online for three years?

Not irl just online

and that doesn't mean anything I was just "pretending" to be a girl for three years

I completely identified as cisgender and never even thought about being trans

And three years isn't that much time

Spoiler

more realistically a flavor of bigender or something
