Your gender is not important as a label does not define you. Whether you are male, female, genderfluid, trans or other; it does not change the fact that you are a beautiful person capable of some much. A label does not need to define you and it does not make you who you are. Please don't be afraid and do not lose yourself to a label. Be you

I am not transexual, but I am a girl, I was born a girl and still am. I know I am because, well I just do, but I understand that isn't good enough answer or reason for other people. I am a very girly girl, I love dresses, make up, shoes etc. I'm not really anyone to answer this question but I think you know when you know, you should feel comfortable and happy in your own skin, if you don't and that means you need to change a part of yourself, then thats fine. You should defiantly do whatever it takes to make yourself happy (along as its safe and legal, of course). Be what makes you beautiful!

you really just have to explore. Remember that gender is a made up construct, and that wahtever you feel comfortable with is valid

Nobody can tell you that, except you. That's because you'll be able to acknowledge how you feel in your body - do you feel like you're not a girl despite being in that body? Nevertheless, either way, it's only you who can make that decision 😊

There are no rules that tell you what you are, but rather you figure it out yourself. You try out and see what identity makes you feel most comfortable. I believe that is the way to figure it out yourself. It mostly takes some time, but the most important point is that you are happy with your choice in the end.

I'm transgender and I realized this when I would see guys and I felt like were similar and like I wanted to be like them and look like a guy and I just started to piece it together that I'm not like a normal girl or even a girl.

You can feel it from within, and you are comfortable identifying with it by the things you do and style too(activities, clothes you wear, etc)

What helped me discover who I am, is finding people who identify as these genders and being it off of that. This is how I learned everything I know about genders and hope I found out who I really am.

You won't be able to tell if you are a boy or a girl, you will feel it in here

In my experience, gender is just how I express the body I was given. It's really hard to tell. Gender is a journey and our bodies are constantly changing. It's all about you, you don't even have to identify.
