What was your journey of realizing you are trans?

I thought a was a masc lesbian as a kid. Im not lol I realized that I’m non-binary and pan. I finally figured out but you’re not supposed to feel wrong in your body is not normal and realized I liked men really funny because I’m afab. After figuring it out, everything makes a lot more sense. Btw if you worry about figuring your gender and sexuality and stuff everything will be ok. Take your time. It took me a while of identifying as lesbian and then realizing I’m trans. It took 4 to 5 years to figure out his pan and non-binary. Keep in mind I have had lots of Identities it took a while to find what works for me. Remember, silly’s have a good time <3.

I started out thinking I was genderfluid which changed to nonbinary which changed to demiboy which finally just changed to trans ftm. This took a good minute for me to figure out LMAO my sexuality journey is even more complex LMAO

not really feeling comfortable being a girl (having a big chest and whatnot just very uncomfortable in my own skin after puberty) and me envying men and looking at them made me think "damn i wanna be one" also by the fact when i was little i'd lean into more boyish stuff  also somehow the diary of a wimpy kid movies helped because i wanted to look just like Rodrick (who wouldn't?) self discovery is weird how it plays out lol

Damn, i thought i was a masc lesbian too... Then i found out what "transgender" means, and it confused me at first, but once i got it i was like "oh wow cool, good for them" and after that, it just sort of lingered in the back of my mind... like slowly approaching...

The internet was my tool to test the waters. often, i remained "ambiguous" with my gender and it felt good when i ended being interpreted as a boy, or, masc as anyway. At this point i forgot about trans people, until i sort of fell into more accepting online spaces, that were open about lgbtq topics, and then it hit me... I wanted to try this out...

Many stuff happened later. I doubted myself sometimes, but i've overcome what made me feel that way, and I can now see the truth, very clearly: This is who i am, and this is who i love being...

mmmm when I was real little I didn't quite get that other people saw me as a girl, like it just didn't seem like a possibility to me. then around 3rd or 4th grade I heard about other transnpeople and I realized that when other people saw me they were seeing a girl, completely messed me up my dysphoria was the worst it's ever been. (there was also a good couple of months where I thought I was a lesbian because I couldn't see myself as a girl dating a guy, but a girl dating a girl didn't seem so bad) I was so desperate to get away from being a girl that I just called myself a trans boy and refused to look into it further. around 5th or 6th grade I got curious and started thinking I might be nonbinary, or a demiboy, or xenic, but just could never find one that fit me perfectly. I played around with so many labels (and it was really nice!!) but eventually I just started calling myself queer (around 7th or 8th grade?). I'm about to go into 10th and this is still how I feel the most comforting describing myself, just a queer gay guy, maybe not a boy in the way others would define being a boy, but that's what I am :]
