Im male born, but i dont feel particularly “male” so to speak: currently im non-binary bc i dont feel i belong to gender categories. Its just like im mentally in a gender-limbo and i think ive been in it my whole life, but its not concrete, as in sometimes i wish i was a girl (this happened also when i was a kid) but at the same time i feel like the categories of binary gender arent fit for me. Im just confused as in what i am. From the outside i think im generally seen as male but inside it’s kinda like i don’t care but i don’t like to be in the gender binary but i wish i was more “girly”. Can anyone relate?

    I’m non-binary and trans-femme. I am taking feminizing HRT but I have zero desire to pass as a cis woman. I want to exist within the deconstruction of the gender binary and be a shining example of humanity fitting into the queerness that is all around us in nature. It’s sometimes a scary place to exist, but it feels very authentic to myself, and has contextualized a lot of my childhood in a way that makes a lot of sense. Seems like you could be similar, but maybe leaning more into gender fluidity than totally trans-femme??

      This is the first I’ve heard of HRT but not for the sake of passing - mad respect to you for being brave enough to make your own path, I think that’s really cool.
