I’m a biological male. Were you expecting a different answer?

Sorry to tell you, but you are not now or ever female. You will never give birth or have female health issues no matter what you call yourself.

What’s up? Like I said, I’m pretty open to questions.

I’m a woman. Born and proud to be a woman with female DNA and XX chromosomes. What qualifies/scientific evidence/genetic makeup makes you believe or refer to yourself as a female/woman?

I’m not at all trying to be rude or hateful, but I don’t understand how anyone with XY chromosomes, no ovaries, no uterus, and no vagina can just say they’re female anything. Taking hormones, having surgery, and wearing women’s clothing does not make anyone female. I don’t understand this so can you please explain your thinking? Thanks

Now, with that said, I do have more bi-tendencies now that I’ve transitioned. I could be watching something like “Road House” and be like “dayum that Patrick Swayze is hot”.

nothing personal man. hope you're doing well.

This is also where I don't understand.

It isn't my business nor can I tell someone who you are attracted to, and I can't tell you what to wear if you want to dress as a man or woman based on our society and cultural norms (dress, skirt, heels, suit, pants, oxfords, etc), but taking hormones and body modification doesn't make you a man or woman. I also understand that there are a very few cases of "intersexed" people with both or none and even xxy chromosomes. That is not the case here 99.99% of the time.

I also very much think that this wave of doing this to children is horrific and some type of abuse by the parents.

Sure you can. The difference is that you would be admitted to an institution for shock therapy.

What are your pronouns?


Loaded question. Doesn’t matter what I say, you’ll retort with you’re a dude, blah blah blah.

I mean you are a dude so...

But that’s not how it works. When I started transitioning, I didn’t have a sudden of “Poof! I like guys/women now!” and change my preference overnight. I don’t think I’ve ever even heard of something like that. I’ve always liked women, even when I knew I was trans at an early age. Now, with that said, I do have more bi-tendencies now that I’ve transitioned. I could be watching something like “Road House” and be like “dayum that Patrick Swayze is hot”.

Did you ever stop and think that just maybe you have mental issues if you are this confused over this many aspects of your life?

IIRC, a large majority of trans people experienced sexual abuse at a young age. Did some trauma happen in your life to cause this confusion?
