How does one"feel" like a boy or a girl?

>>8330556
Does looking at your genitals cause you to break down and weep? Idk for me its a lot more about the physical dysphoria than like, "acting girly"

Tranny here
I dont know what feeling like a girl is either, i just hate my penis, it makes me wanna kill myself, and when i see cis girls i get extremely jelly of their bodies

>>8330568
I'm not talking about dysphoria, I know what that is. But I've heard people say they don't FEEL like a certain gender

>>8330583
That's them not knowing how to explain dysphoria to you. They say "I feel" because it's more easy to describe that way. Everyone knows what it's like to feel something so that's the example they use.

I had the exact same thought myself some time ago and promptly realised it's because I'm not trans.

There are experiences outside of our own, Anon.

>>8330556
We feel comfortable when we can perceive and present ourselves as female and feel discomfort when we perceive and present ourselves as male. That's what it means.

Well most my knowledge of transgender ppl comes from Tumblr so...

>>8330583
Explaining dysphoria is tedious and can be mildly triggering

>>8330642
Define "female" besides "identifies as female".
Define "male" besides "identifies as male".

What exactly are you failing to understand in that post?

>>8330713
how does that make a difference

>>8330556
That's because you have aspergers, or maybe socio/psycho-pathy, you're unable to imagine scenarios outside of your current one.

If you don't feel female, then just go ahead and take testosterone, there's no reason to why you wouldn't. It'll make you perform better.

Im guessing you've never been to Tumblr

>>8330583
Just imagine if you started to look different from all the other girls, you saturated to grow facial hair, body hair, your voice dropped down to male levels, and your shoulders widened.
That would not have made you upset?

>testosterone, there's no reason to why you wouldn't
I guess I'm autistic now...

And there's also no reason why I WOULD take testosterone

>>8331529
Actually not really, I think it'd be cool to have a beard

>>8330556
Okay, see, that's the thing: you just do. It is not really about anything behavioral (some describe it that way and I can't relate to them in that sense). You feel like you need to have a different sort of body.

>>8331531
Yep, you have a pretty severe form of aspergers, or something like it.
You have absolutely no ability to imagine situations.

Do you think you would be sad if your family died? Can you try to imagine the emotions you would feel?
Not? There we go.

I have been diagnosed with a severe case of the assburgers

Well, everyone else on this site is autistic, at least I'll fit in here...
