I'm trans masculine. AFAB. What do I do? How do I tell people? How do I tell my roommate? I work in a church setting and while I know my pastor will be okay with it, how will everyone else feel? Maybe it's stupid but what about clothes? Can I still dress like this? I like leggings and skinny jeans. I like big fluffy sweaters and make-up. Will people still accept me? I want people to recognize me as masculine, not a woman. Does that mean I have to forfeit these things I like in order to be seen how I want? I don't like all aspects of testosterone. I don't want all the hair or oily skin. I want top surgery, I don't like my chest. I don't think I want bottom surgery. Is that normal? Do other trans men keep their vaginas and like them? I like jewelry and piercings. I like pink and rainbows and glitter. But I'm closer to a male than female. Does anyone else feel like this or has anyone else had a similar experience? And how can I find an LGBTQIA+ therapist/counselor to help me? Idk what to do. I'm just so tired lately. I've been wearing a binder as of late and I don't want to take it off ever. I sort of dissociate when I have to. I just feel gross when I'm not wearing it. I wish my waist was less feminine. I feel like it's so small which is so weird because before I even thought about being trans I admired my waist for how small it was. But not all I can feel is how it's small. The binder ends right on it and I'm afraid it's compressing it more and making it look smaller. If I can't be male, I at least want to look more androgynous. I hate this, all this insecurity, all this unsureness. I just want to be confident and sure in what I'm doing. Any advice?

Maybe reach out to someone on the online community on twitter or Instagram who you can compare your thought processes with. Ofcourse you can identify as a gender without changing your sexual organs- you can do whatever you please! The people who don’t like you for who you are do not deserve you then!!! 💖
ReplyAlso going off my previous comment when I said ‘compare thought processes’ I hope this didn’t offend you- what I meant was find someone who maybe was in a smilies situation to you that you can talk to and allow them to show you how they advanced and moved forward and you can use this information to make your own choices. But remember you do not need a label!!!
