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

It's all about how you feel. You just have to make sure you explore yourself in every way you know.

Research what it means to be that gender and if it applies to you then you can have that label. If you feel like you are not a boy or a girl then maybe you don't have a gender. You don't have to label yourself.

if it really isn't obvious but you know they aren't the sex they appear to be its as simple as asking them. it's not rude to want to call someone by their correct pronouns and learning more about the community they associate with.

My take would be by experimenting. You may experiment, much like when trying outfits at a clothes boutique, and see which one you identify with. Perhaps you feel you identify with one gender, or feel fluid and you identify with more than one gender, that's ok. Whichever the outcome of your experiment, please keep in mind that You are not only your gender, you're worthy whichever gender you identify with, even if you identify with more than one gender or no gender at all!

Ask yourself, if you do not feel strongly one way or another,is it necessary for you to make a choice? Are you making a choice because you want to or because you feel pressured by others to do so? Perhaps you are just you.

You know if you are a boy or girl by the way you feel in your heart, don't ever let someone tell you what you can and can not be.

Finding your sexuality is not an easy thing, but the time u take to do so is worth it. Take your time and get to know your sexuality.

The answer when questioning your gender and sex doesn't come easily, far from it. But whatever you are you are still human, and being able to tell what you are comes with time. You can be a boy, a girl, both or neither, it's up to you. Don't try to judge yourself too quickly let what happens happen and go with how you feel above all else.

Gender is a personal experience that describes how you and society perceive yourself. A boy isn't a boy because he has short hair and plays baseball, and a girl isn't a girl because she wears dresses and plays with dolls. Gender roles is not the same as a gender identity. If you believe you feel male or female or something else without that pressure to conform to gender roles, that's how you start to realize where this misalignment comes from.

Ask them. There's no problem in asking. If you don't want to be straight on that topic, ask what pronouns they'd like you to use. Or, try to stop fitting people on boxes. Is hard, but you can do it with a little bit of training.
