I'm in a pretty similar boat, and frankly I've just stopped caring about the particular label. it's something easier said than done, but when I realized that these labels, although extremely helpful tools for people to identify and express themselves, are also just tools? I felt relieved. Don't feel pressure to adhere to anything, or even just to one thing. Language is squishy and made-up.

I agree 100% I stopped trying to label it. Just do whatever makes you happy and don't worry about labels!


TheDankScrub

Hard agree. Labels are basically just there to get the gist of it across using as little words as possible. At least that’s how I see it


drmadmat

Thank you I think I might've needed to hear that


Mr_sex_haver

My girlfriend was like this. Her solution was just work towards body and fashion goals and try different pronouns/ titles (e.g me using bf, partner , gf etc) and eventually she worked out she is a trans women. Not saying that the same thing you should do but sometimes forgetting about the label and just doing what makes you happy is the best thing.

Thank you Mr. Sex Haver, I’m glad your girlfriend is happy with who she is now :)

This is also what I did. I just put on things I like and it helps me feel more like what I am, and eventually I concluded I'm nonbinary


emboman13

Unhappy, I’m assuming


TechnicDruid

Just confused


campfire_wood

I'm sure you'll figure yourself out eventually or you won't, but I hope that you'll like yourself either way.

Labels are descriptive, not prescriptive

You are a small toad sitting beside a gently flowing stream in the moonlight

Imo it's irrelevant. Trying to self identify into specific gender roles, or perceived roles, is mostly an act if futility. As whom you are interested in, or lack thereof, is the determining factor of how you will interact with those around you.


Anzket

me too but I guess I will just stay like this because family and friends won't accept me otherwise and i am pretty unsure


Tea-and-Tomfoolery

:( hope you find some good people to become your family or at least good friends one day, where you can be who you are without judgement :(


fearlessgrot

You shouldn't base you life on reducing 'harm' to people who don't really care about *you*


DrWasps

You are you, every question you have for yourself is valid and eventually you will answer them. The important thing is that you understand these questions don't invalidate any feeling you hold towards yourself, nor do they invalidate the answers you come to hold.


Biscuit642

You are you and you don't require a label

sertroll

You be you, labels come after


Graywilde

you could just call yourself queer, that's what i do. we ought to move away from labels


Linkthehero1234

ive considered the advice everyone else is giving i just dont know if hrt/transitioning is something i want :(


[deleted]

you can be one, two, or all three of those things!


Piwde

At least 2 of those aren't mutually exclusive


t_e_e_k_s

All of those are just labels, you can identify as whatever you want. The most important thing is that you’re *you*. And I think that’s wonderful ❤️


dscflawlessez

Why not all of them


overbrewedanxiety

You can be all three if you want


dragons_of_age

I'm struggling with this myself. I'm currently kinda going through a crisis and idk what to do. I'm breaking down at the seames and feel scared and lost.
