Hey there. So, I’ve been trying to come to terms with something that has been bothering me for a while. I guess it’s about my gender identity and sexual orientation. I’ve always identified as male, but something’s been nagging at me about that lately.

You see, sometimes I find myself wishing I was born as a woman. I’m not really sure where these feelings are coming from, but they’re certainly there. And it’s not every day, more like hazy moments here and there. Like seeing myself in the mirror and thinking, ‘what if?’. Has anyone else ever felt this way?

Now, about my sexuality. I’ve always been attracted to women, but now I find myself, well, noticing men more. I don’t know if it’s in a sexual way or more of an admiration, or both? It’s just another of those unfamiliar feelings that I can’t seem to shake off.

I get it, we’re living in a year where it’s becoming more accepted to be whoever we are, regardless of sexual orientation and gender identity. Yet it’s terrifying, right? Especially when you’re still unsure what you’re feeling exactly…

I’ve been reading some posts here on this wonderful community, and it’s been immensely educating. It made me feel like, okay, I’m not the only one. Hence the long post. Guess this is me reaching out, hoping to find folks out 🤔

Hey there, gotta tell ya, you’re far from alone. A lot of us have been right where you’re at, swimming in questions with no immediate answers. Sometimes it takes a bit of life lived to figure out exactly who we are or want to be. It’s perfectly normal to question, to wonder ‘what if?’. It doesn’t define you, but it may help shape you. And hey, attraction can be fluid too, you know? Maybe you’re noticing men more cos you’re just broadening your horizon a bit. Give yourself some grace, time, and (if you feel comfortable) maybe even reach out for professional guidance. It’s your life, your identity, you call the shots. Bit by bit, you’ll get there – and remember this community has got your back.
