>>40448204Genuinely you don't sound different from where I was last year, I absolutely hate the idea of being a trans woman but am pretty comfortable with the idea of being a woman/woman with penis.
I still consider it a mental illness combined with a desire for attention. I 100% want to be a woman because of the positive attention associated with it, I don't want to be a trans woman because of the amount of negative attention associated with it.
I crossdress and do makeup and then at some point I started getting upset because I liked how I was looking but because I didn't look like a woman, it felt shameful. Started to have a desire to know what other people thought of how I looked, what their thoughts would be if I was a girl.
I struggled with how I looked my entire life and I'm now realizing before 30 that I wouldn't have struggled if I looked like a girl that whole time.
