How do I know if I have body/gender dysphoria or I'm just really insecure about my body/gender? I'm 18 y.o. man. I like dudes and pretty much had for as long as i remember. Never fit in with the Chad Thundercocks of my grade in school and hung out (and still do) with the girls and other dweebish guys.
I always envied all the girls. Their curves, their eyes, their hips, the clothes, the makeup. I never understood what men found so alluring about it all, but I knew I wanted to have it. I hate muscly, sweaty masculinaty and always graviated towards the more graceful quiet feminity.
I've had some andro experiences (My girlfriends doing my makeup) and it felt more normal than when I would have to get a crew cut and dress in t shirts. I grow hair like I'm Cousin It from the Addam's Family and shave often (Mostly because my family is super Italian).
I have no fucking idea if any of this makes sense and I don't know if im asking the right questions to myself.

Do you ever fantasize about being a girl when you get off? What crossdressing experiences have you had?
Dysphoria is a spectrum so the question is where you are on it.
>>8169413
I think it's pretty straightforward. Would you feel better living as a girl 24/7?
>>8169457
...the only post with reddit spacing itt is yours.

How do you mean "get off"? Like fapping it? If so I really don't fap often because I don't like the way my body feels.
The furthest I've been with cross dressing is when I tried on women's underwear. I liked it way better than boxers or briefs.
>>8169454
Probably. I just don't think I could pull it off.
>>8169485
What were the circumstances of that crossdressing? Did it arouse you? How do you feel about crossdressing in private but presenting as a boy in public if you can't pull it off?

OP is almost certainly NOT agp but her answers will tell for sure.
>>8169537
Well yeah I can notice. I just find it weird to start off with those questions.
>>8169543
You confuse testing WHETHER someone is agp with TRYING to call them agp.
>>8169537
Oh wow that's the first time someone referred to me with female pronouns. That really made my day. Thank you :)
>>8169562
You never know in this shithole of a board.
>>8169565
Well that pretty much settles it, OP. You are trans as fuck, sister.
>>8169515
It wasn't about arousal. It was more of a silly joke I did before I felt any of the feelings I feel now. It was like the feeling you get when you take off a really stuffy sweater after hours (or years in this cause) of discomfort.

I can tell you for sure I aint Buffalo Bill

Imagine dressing as a girl when you're alone but as a boy when you're in company. How does the idea of that feel?
I guess even though you found panties nicer to wear, you don't see the point in dressing up alone when you can't pull it off in company. The point is to pull it off! Right?

I do like the idea of going femmode in private because then no one can judge me. I hate normal boyish clothes, but that's all I'm socially allowed to wear in public. I've heard the word "Social Dysphoria" before, it sounds like that's the feeling I have when in public but I may be mistaken.
Thanks to everyone in this thread for being so patience and understanding with me. I'm happy I have a place to properly vent and gain proper insight.
Love ya'll ;)

Social dysphoria is when you want to be treated as a girl. To socialize as one, get female pronouns, get to present as one, etc.
Have you pretended to be a girl online to get to feel feminine? Why/why not?
Also, what brings you to /lgbt/ on 4chan instead of a different place to ask this like reddit or tumblr?
>>8169733
I do desire all those things. I'm just way to shy to come out even though I do feel feminine
I've never acted like a chick online because I lurk a lot.
I've used 4chan as long as ive been on the internet. I've just always liked the better on here way better. Also, Its way less public to say I want to be a woman on here than if I said it on facebook or twitter. Also, most people on those site can't empathize with a trans NEET fag dweeb like me
>>8169807
*I've always liked the people on here way better.
I CAN'T TYPE FOR SHITE!
>>8169807
Yeah you're trans sis. You're an HSTS, not an AGP, in case it ever comes up.
>>8169807
Damn. Just..Damn. OP you hit too close to home with this one. I've felt..Pretty much everything you've felt and I feel like I learnt a lot just reading this thread. Also that image made me just break down. I've been on the fence for a bit about being trans and I still don't have a definitive answer..I just feel *stuck* as male..when I don't like the idea.
