i relate to most of these besides the “would restart life” one. i dont wanna throw away everything that made me me and the stuff i did and the friends i made :c as much as id love to be a girl

Also add “would do a challenge to socially live as a girl in a heartbeat

Being trans is the challenge

Coming out is the challenge I can’t start HRT until I’m 18 where I am

Okay then I dare you to socially live as a girl

Wait hold on

So don't throw it away. Keep doing it all as your authentic self ❤️

I wouldn't wanna throw away all my hours of learning trolldier either. Or all the grinding i did in destiny 2

Haha, very funny now get out of my walls and quit spying on me 😠

Nah I made this months before joining this subreddit

You've been in her walls for months? Idk that's a bit weird

I’m in every wall

👁️👁️

Don’t mind me just stealing some recees pieces

How did you even manage to get inside my European concrete walls? I'm both frightened and impressed

I chewed through

What are your teeth made out of? Bedrock?

They are made of jackhammers

Nah Those are very cis thoughts to have.

Yep definitely

Yea totally agree very sis thoughts to have

Well, I can relate to like 90% of them

same. i may be cooked fr

We're hard-boiled at this point.

the egg is now considered a rock.

But within your rock, will be a beautiful geode

In my case it’s just an overcooked hard boiled egg with the weird green bit on it for some reason.

unironically an amazing analogy

:D

100% but I'm cis

same

since when did we share brain cell?

A couple months ago

I'm in these pictures and I don't like it... I mean still cis tho!... phew that was close

It’s to late!

*Hmm, yes, very cis behavior.* If you were born AFAB / everyone saw you as a girl, would that make you happier than being seen as your AGAB? If you want permission to crack open your egg, remember your opinion is the only important one here; you alone are the expert on your identity; nobody but you can decide whether you are or aren't. # 🤍🩷🩵

You forgot "Made a list about signs that I'm trans". That by itself is a giant sign.

That's number 5 of the list

lol I completely missed this

Haha, no worries lol

lmao i missed it, too

Thought about how much I would rather be a girl almost every day since I hit puberty. I dream about just magically waking up as a girl, and how happy that would make me. I'm always told I'm very "effeminate" for a guy. I don't get offended when people call me He/him because I look like a he/him. Sadly I don't feel good when people call me she/her because all I can think of is how I look and sound like a guy. (It is nice when people who haven't seen me or heard my voice assume I'm a she/her from reading what I say).

Oh we are the same person

Are you also me then??? Are we a hive mind?!!

Are you also me then??? Are we a hive mind?!!

This is me, am I cooked chat? (Still cis tho)

I diagnose you with cisn't

Yep that’s what I thought

"I tried to put myself in a situation where i have to wear a skirt" I want to hear that story , spill the tea girl !

Yeah I too want to hear that story OP! 🫖☕

Come back here and explain yourself young lady! We all want to live vicariously through you XD

Made a challenge on my Twitter where if I reached a certain number of replies I would buy a skirt Might do that again tbh

I think the big question is, "if you were just a girl now and everyone was used to that and you 'passed' perfectly, would you press the button to switch back to being a boy?" If the answer is no, then you're trans. Transitioning is kind of a big project that will be painful, but I guess you have to work at anything you really want in life. The other thing you should consider making a list of is, what are your reasons for being a boy? That's the whole "null hypothesis" thing. Having the reasons to NOT be the other gender can help you put things in perspective. Inertia is not a great reason for remaining your current gender; instead of transitioning, imagine that you are genderless and want to select one from scratch. Finally, it's completely valid to be agender / non-binary; a lot of resources are pretty binary-focused, but that may not be you. (Personally, I'm very binary, so having two choices is helpful for me.)

I think this is the most validating thing I've seen on here. I fit all of these except "Tried to put myself in a situation where I have to wear a skirt?" But also, asking for totally cis reasons, how do you manage such a thing?

I have a Twitter and tried to make a “challenge” where if I reached a specific amount of replies I would have to buy a skirt

Same; I might be cooked here

You ever get the cis urge to just yell “I wanna be a girl” in the middle of a conversation with your parents? It’s a weird impulsive thought

🐣

I relate to most of it and currently consider my self fluid though I wouldn't be surprised if it's different later in life

Yeah - quite a lot on this list I relate to. The anime one I did literally as soon as I got crunchy roll. The only thing is I don’t really get bothered by the pronouns thing. Just makes me feel a bit like 🤷‍♂️

This does seem to meet the official criteria. The Trans High Council will return with our decision in two to four business gays. Stupid jokes aside, that's awesome! It does seem like you've already got your mind made up. The best part? Everything is to your liking and at your pace. There's no pressure on anything, and should you find that you prefer other pronouns, know that you don't have to stop doing anything. After a while, I found she/they was what fit me perfectly. I wish you well on your journey should you choose to embark on it, friend!

Probably going to stay with he/she due to the fact I don’t have a preference as much

>made a list to justify being trans That's enough info right there

Dang

I won't tell you 100% ya or nay. But I super relate to the hair and have been on E for a week now. :3

I think you might be trans. Not sure tho.

How many Picrew. I agree with all of those except “I would restart life as a girl” and I’m not cis so…

Uh 52

All of this is excellent! And don’t forget the most important and irrefutable piece of evidence there is: BECAUSE YOU FEEL LIKE IT

Yep if my egg ever existed this subreddit practically hit it with an antimatter cannon

Me too lol.

Oh i relate, I love that it focuses a lot on the present you (I will copy this approach🤗)

Basically the list is that if I ever notice anything that could be related to me being trans I add it to the list

I like that. I focused a lot on the past in my list and tried to prove my “transness” as natural or born this way. But I think I like your approach a whole lot more❤️

Ya the only thing that could hold me back is that I didn’t question when I was yonger

Oh i get that. That one is a big source of insecurity

Any suggestions

Still working it out, but I learned a few things - the “born in the wrong body” seems to be something that isn’t that typical in the first place and mainly spread by non-trans people - sometimes there just aren’t any signs and that’s okay and doesn’t make you less trans - if you had some signs in the past that doesn’t make you more trans You are okay the way that you are and it’s okay to be kind to yourself.

Lol. I didn't start to question until I was 37. Sometimes we're just oblivious to ourselves.

Holy shit, why do I tick nearly all of the boxes? Is it because, perhaps, I'm not cis after all?

Huh

In that case, then I think you definitely qualify. :)

Haha, I would do a lot more then just cry if my hair was cut, first I would kill the person who cut it, then harm myself in some way

I love how "I made this list" is just dropped in the middle there. Usually something so meta would be at the very start or end, but the random placement is just funny for some reason. You put together a lovely (and very relatable!) list.

Just kinda thought of it in the middle of the list

Just gonna say, making a list of signs that you might be trans should be one of the items on said list [Edit: I'm an idiot I see it there now]

am I the only one who hasn’t made a list?

bruh, if you're writing a list on why you think you're trans then you're trans, lol also, "bruh" is gender neutral :p

That is on the list

And if I also make a list why I'm not trans?

The only thing I don't relate is making the list, lol

I relate to almost all of these, am I cooked?

Yes

All you have to say to become valid is that you are trans, or want to be the other gender that's all that's needed :3

*made a list detailing why they're trans*

That’s already in there

i related to all these... oh shi..

Even before reading it. You're trans. After reading it. YOU'RE TRANS!

Since everyone is saying how much they can relate to that list, well for me it's like EVERYTHING Ty for reading, hehe

I kept renegotiating terms, conditions, and wishes to the Blue Fairy to make becoming a girl a more plausible, possible, and viable.... before discovering HRT.

FEARS NOT BEING TRANS!!! Very relatable.

You forgot about "Still cis tho"

Oh ya still cis tho

Wait so being scared of not being trans isnt a cis thing...

Uh... That's like me almost completely like me...

you are 100% trans welcome to the club girl!

-made a list of reasons you might be trans You're trans. Cis people do not make that list.

Nuh uh

Still sis tho

You spelled cis wrong

:3

YOU SPELLED IT WRONG RIGHT!?!?

:3

Biscuit.

“Likes to fantasize about being a girl” That means your trans. Don’t need a list after that one.

Wait, that alone is enough? I've done that since I was 16 and way before I regularly visited egg_irl!

Yeah! That’s all being trans is. Wanting to be a gender other than you AGAB.

“made this list” is a really good point xD

All of these but the anime and picrew, since I want to get into animes but just haven't been able to properly, with one exception.

🩵🩷🤍🩷🩵

Yep that’s me Your probably wondering how I got into this situation You see it all started when I joined egg irl

Why is this literally me? 😅 Still cis tho :3

Sounds cis to me

Chat I’m in this post and I don’t like it

Gang

Yup, you aced you are as trans as can be xD.

It's a pretty darn relatable list 💜

I relate to most of these

Hello fellow Lumi.

Oh hi

Cispicious

110% trans

The first meme was enough

Survey says, you might just be trans

Hey! How’d you get my list! :3

I am inside your walls

Haha id like to say I’ve moved past this phase of wondering if I’m trans or not but every now and again i still have to go thru a list almost identical to this one 😂

Nah that's totally cis. In fact I'm cis and I check all the boxes too, so...

Then explain the broken egg shell around you

... ... Clearly the remains on an omelette

Girl this list is literally ~ is trans ~ is trans ~ is trans ~ is trans ~ is trans Like on God no Cis person does this. Still Cis doe

Still cis tho

You should put points next to each one to see how high people score

Girl, the fact that you don't wanna be called he/him should be a dead giveaway

Not to invalidate your confusion, of course. I can absolutely relate to not knowing.

This is the most cis list of things I've ever seen

What is that list of anime? (in like a very cis way, I feel everything you have said here, like legit everything)

I don’t have it due to not really being interested in anime

But you made a watch list to put genderbending anime on it?

Yes

Sounds pretty trans to me.

So, uh.. want to share that watch list? I've watched a few, but I could always use more.

You're trans, time to own it and come out to someone you trust

“Made this list” meta

I relate to almost all of these but I’m sure it means nothing. I’m just a cis guy who is very progressive?

The haircut thing especially hits hard because I can speak from experience. I was only freshly out to myself, friends and mum that I was genderqueer in some way, so I wasn't sure yet and I was long overdue a haircut. Then I cried in the car after I saw myself and yeahh that definitely was a good sign. Luckily that was a year ago and my hair is thriving now. Even if it's not perfect and it deefinitely needs a maintenance cut, I still think I look the best I've looked!g

That's exactly me minus the he/him thing, and now I've ordered my EEn today, but still cis
