How can you tell if you are a boy or a girl, or something else entirely?

Our brain and community classifies us into a gender role. Sometimes that may not feel specifically black or white. Girl, boy or someone different. Sexuality is diverse and deeply personal. Understanding your sexuality is about the feelings, thoughts, attractions and preferences you feel towards other people. There are different types of sexuality and it can take time to figure out what fits for you. Sometimes stereotypes may change over time, but eventually you will recognise what feels the most comfortable for you.

There are various ways you can tell if you are a boy or girl. Once you begin to start having feelings that you associate more with the other gender, you should try researching some of the ways to figure out where you fall in the different genders. Once are more or less sure about how you identify, you should confide in someone you are close to. Possibly a close friend/sibling, from then on it becomes easier to deal with the weight of your secret and make it easier to come out to more people.

Only you can decide because you know yourself best. However you feel the most "at home" or the most like... You.. You know you've found it! Ifbyou dont identify with either gender, that is okay too! Dont feel pressured into putting a gender label on yourself!

I think the question is, does it matter? I know we tend to categorize everyone and everything, which is natural, though I honestly believe that as long as you love yourself - it doesn't matter.

When you first figure out your gender, It's usually when you're in your teen years. You feel strange in your body. It doesn't feel right. You want to change yourself.

It can be so hard when struggling to identify outside of the traditional gender binary (male or female). I identify as gender queer, and was thankful to find the concept after years of struggling to fit in and understand why I wasn't like the other girls. There's no simple answer to this question for many struggling with gender identity. Learning about the many other gender identities and questioning my idea of my own gender helped me to better understand where I fall into the spectrum.

The best thing to do is not worry about it and do not let what anyone else says effect you. You are yourself and that is for sure and you are right being however you feel.

What I found about realizing that I was genderfluid, more along the line of trans is that people who are cisgendered rarely wonder if they may be trans.

No one can tell you if you're a boy or a girl or something entirely else. It's all in your mind and your body. If you start to question who you are, don't bash yourself for it, explore it, gender is not determined by your parts, it's determined by your feeling. Only you can be the judge of what you are. And don't let anyone else tell you differently.

If you feel like you're a boy, then you are. Same goes with feeling like a girl. If you feel that you're both or neither, that's perfectly okay too!
