Hello, I'm a bit out of it, so this blog might not be any good (which let's be honest wouldn't be a change). Anyway, I'll just be answering some questions about myself.
To answer the question on how long I knew I was a woman, it was back when I was around 11 years old, maybe younger. A common thing in trans narratives is that you go threw some let's say stages. At one point I started to embrace my feminent side, and I felt really good about myself. I did that for about a month, then I tried to be ubber masculant because I thought there was something wrong with me. I should say right now I've always been very passive. So being told that I was told I was a boy since birth, I just kind of accepted that. But I never truly did fit in with the boys as well as I did with the girls, and I always knew there was something off, but never really being introduced to trans people or even the topic of gender beyond whats between your legs I could never pinpoint what was wrong. After awhile, I had a bit of self reflection on the topic of my future. I thought about having children and I thought about having a family. But the funny thing was when I saw myself I didn't see a man I saw a woman. When I imagined what my kids would call me, I didn't think dad but they would call me mom. I know that sounds silly, but that kind of sparked a realization that I was a woman. I started researching about what it means to have this feeling,if I was trans, and later watching videos on the topic. And I just kind of knew who I was and who I was supposed to be. It sounds silly but it all was just a sudden realization.
To answer the question on when I started dressing like a woman, it was a very slow process for me atleast. I've always been kind of androgynous, which has its perks. And after I looked at some resources, I started small. Like wearing vnecks and a light coat to make me look slimer. Wearing a necklace that was my grandfather's to then slowly branching out to different necklaces and bracelets. And kind of worked my way up from there. I didn't have any siblings or any real neighbors around so I couldn't get my hands on alot. But again, It was really just kind of overtime.
The final question on do I live full time as a woman. Sadly not yet, I had alot of road blocks. I came from a Catholic background so that stopped me from transitioning early. But I always think I'm working closer to that goal. I've had a few people in my life giving me support on this journey. And hopefully one day soon, I can finally come out as who I truly am.
Anyway, as always I hope this didn't bore you and I hope I didn't waste your time. Thank you for reading this and sorry if I was a day late. I don't know what the next blog will be or when I'll write it, so maybe keep an eye out. Anyway, thanks again and have a great day. Goodbye :)
