I get dysphoric, I hate my facial hair, and I want to look like a girl. I look down at my legs and see girl legs, i look at my eyes and see girl eyes. But I’m afraid I don’t have a girls brain, that I don’t “think” or mentally refer to myself as a girl

And maybe it’s just a not yet thing, maybe I will think of myself as a girl when I start hrt and see results. I just don’t feel like I fit in right now, like I belong in the “woman” category even if it’s everything I want to be

I’ve been socially transitioning for about 7 or 8 years now (FTM) and I still sometimes think of myself as a girl even though I’m actively transitioning to male. You lived your entire life as a man to everyone else but know you’re a girl, it takes a lot of time to rewire your brain from how you’re perceived by others into what you know you are. Don’t give up just because it’s hard now, everything is hard at first, but you just gotta keep going and it’ll get easier and easier to be a girl

i'm a trans woman who still feels it the same way. one thing that helps is getting out into society as a woman. if everyone treats you as a man then it will be harder to see yourself as a woman
