so did your girlfriend break up with you
No, although idk how things are gonna go. She's been supportive of my crossdressing and femininity, but she also seems to have a huge femboy special interest and likes me having a richard. I, however, do not. She doesn't know that I'm actually trans and is currently in a boarding school with minimal contact (theraputic program), but she loves me and we're probably gonna stay together if we ever see eachother again.
I suspect gender dysphoria has less to do with wanting to be female and more with wanting to be feminine. Our culture has a really big separation between what's considered an ideal man and what's considered an ideal woman. Trans people want to be considered women so that they're more comfortable with their femininity.
It's a different feeling though. Like, I'm actually a girl at heart and feel like I really should have been one biologically. I don't believe in gender roles and I have both feminine and non feminine interests. I just am a girl, simple as that. I'd be more comfortable with myself as a whole if I had a body to match, and I'm pretty uncomfortable being a "guy".
