What Am I? .-. Sometimes, I wonder what I am. I'm a girl, who likes girls, so that makes me a lesbian right? But I hate BEING a girl. I hate my boobs, I hate my voice, and I hate my hips. I don't want a penis though and I don't like being called "pretty". Not because I don't think I am, but because I don't WANT to be "pretty". I want to be "handsome" or even "studly". I look at pictures of dudes because I want to be them. My mom even asked me if I was going to get a sex change. I like being called a lesbian though.


GAH.

It's all too confusing and I really need help.

I'll take anything.

I can't really offer you any help. My advice is to just do what makes you happy and be what makes you happy. Life is about learning who you are, discovering youself. Don't get frustrated because you're confused. Just try leaning about yourself. If you want to be called handsome, then you're handsome, if you want to be called a lesbian, then you're a handsome lesbian. If you don't like your boobs, there's the option of a binder, or even top surgery.
Just do what you think is best for you.

Same for me, in reverse.
Sometimes this gender dysphoria can really drive you nut.

It takes a lot of time to figure out who we really are.
My girlfriend says it's a lot easier to exclude what we are not. Try to think it this way. Wish you the best.

If you want to talk, PM!
It is not inertia alone that is responsible for human relationships repeating themselves from case to case, indescribably monotonous and unrenewed: it is shyness before any sort of new, unforeseeable experience with which one does not think oneself able to cope. But only someone who is ready for everything, who excludes nothing, not even the most enigmatical will live the relation to another as something alive. (R.M.Rilke)

Hey, you might be butch. Emoticon: Grin :D That's what I am.

It's just a type of lesbian. Some girls despise labels like butch & femme, but sometimes it's cool to think about. There are even different types of butches. We're just masculine lesbians. Of course, I'm a soft butch, so I'm a little more happy with femininity. But you may be a harder butch, or a stone, or maybe a sporty dyke, something like that. Emoticon: Smile :) It's kind of confusing, but helpful if you're willing to embrace it. PM me if you have questions about such matters.

You might also be gender queer. Lesbian, but not necessarily female. Hmmm, there's a world of possibilities out there. Emoticon: Grin :D
I love you! Yeah, you! Thanks for being you!

I suggest maybe finding out about all the possible genders. Or you know what, make up your own even. There aren't any rules. Just remember that your "choice" isn't just between male and female, there's a lot more than that
