i don't have the typical trans narrative either. it is an uncomfortable position. at the end of the day though, it's all gonna be based on your experience and your feelings -- not theirs!
Hey dude, I feel ya on this. I too doubt all the time. I dont have the typical "trans narrative" that many trans people talk about. I didn't know all my life. Puberty was no big deal. It does suck to doubt. I feel ya.
Hey Eli thanks for subscribing :) well just wanted to put some points out their on this video. It seems as though your feeling about your possible trans identify changed while talking to people that identify as trans. I'm assuming this is coming from comparing your own life experiences/ your gender identity to theirs. What i've learned thought this entire process is that their is not a right/wrong way to be trans. Don't feel rushed to identify as anything, just stay true to yourself.
doubting is all part of the process. i felt the same when when i first started coming out. after i realized i might be trans, i had major doubts. i even went through a hyper-feminine phase where i grew my hair out a little longer and started wearing all girly clothes. i still go through phases of being unsure about myself, but trying to be more masculine (buying a binder and guys clothes etc) made me a lot more confident about my trans identity, and i think you will experience that too

@queersomething TRUE! which brings us back to the famous point of how insensitive people can be and not believing us.
