I enjoyed reading this thread and I can add my story. I hope that I am not drifting the thread away from anyone.
Yes, I have wanted to be a woman as long as I can remember. I believe that I was meant to be female and should have been born that way. But sometimes the chips fall a different way. I consider myself a transgender woman. There are very few males that I like and to me, most of the world's men suffer from toxic masculinity. I am only part way out of the closet. I would like to be completely out, but I would lose some family that I am not prepared to lose. It is very sad that gender has become such a political football and all the haters have bought into this very toxic thinking. I re-started therapy with a new therapist. When I filled in the paperwork before my first appointment, for gender I put fluid. I am not fluid, altho I guess that I act that way because I am not out. I am going to therapy for a variety of issues and gender is lower on my list. That is why I put fluid. In the end, for a health condition that I have, I will probably never go on HRT or have the surgeries that I would love to have. I do a mild NBE routine which is ok with my doc and medical tests. I have been on this routine for 4 years. It have helped me in my journey profoundly.
