Any tips for not getting so dysphoric when people call you a girl?
And Just tips in general as a trans teen?
I donβt have any tips sorry
What I can share with you is that Iβm a girl and despite that I donβt really care
Iβm rather androgynous so maybe itβs easier, so I sometimes talk about myself as a male
But I donβt know
In my mind I donβt really define myself and I donβt think I look like the other girls
But it doesnβt really matter to me, and I feel okay being considered a girl
Because I feel okay with myself
So
What Iβm trying to say is : what would make you confortable with yourself? Why is it hard to hear people misgender you?
(I donβt know if Iβm of any help)
Eli @eli_24
The reason that it bothers me so much is because I canβt really do anything to hide the fact that I am a biological female because my parents wonβt let me do anything. I had to cut my own hair. I wear ratty sweatshirts. And I donβt feel comfortable with myself because I feel like I canβt truly express myself because of my parents restrictions.
Ok so
Youβre trying to find a way to bear with your parents restriction
Like, how can you express yourself within these restrictions
And so how to play with their rules and be you with what you have at hand
(Am I understandable?)
Eli @eli_24
yea. I mean, I could change my name at school to what I want it to be.
Yeah for example
I donβt know, youβll know
