I’m not sure whether this is the right place for this question, but… How do you know?

Like, I would 100% be a woman if I could choose. I also always play a female character in games. When I see a girl I feel a strong sexual attraction, but I also feel jealous of her.

But, I’m honestly not sure if I am not cisgendered. I feel like I missed the boat. I also don’t know if I am sure enough. Is this impostor syndrome? How do I know it’s not just sexual attraction? Or me being unhappy with the role men have in this world? Or me being depressed otherwise? It all seems like a big tangled mess.

Thanks a lot for all the comments. I made an appointment with my GP next week and hope that he can refer me to a therapist. All the best to you all <3

    What do you mean by “I feel like I missed the boat”?

      In the sense that maybe I’m too old and are past some point of no return. Probably not a very constructive thought.

        I thought that’s what you meant. We’ve all had those

        I’m 34 and have never looked or felt better in my life because I finally got my hormones like a year ago. I am thriving because I am me. I know that’s not terribly old, but you get my point. I can’t tell you who you are, but it’s only too late if you’re dead. Whoever you are, be that person now.
