Afraid to Express My Gender Identity

I have maybe a different perspective to bring here as someone who is ex-trans. Regardless of what you decide it's good to remember that hair, clothing, masc/fem, none of that is what makes you a man or a woman. Stressing over identity based on these superficial things can be worse for your mental health than just looking and acting in whatever way comes most naturally.

Do you!!! Hope you are able to come out and be loved and embraced for who you are!!

Thrift stores are great for this. Most towns have a Salvation Army that sell cloths for really cheap. I’ve found some really good cloths at these places!

Try seeing if there is a place that gives away clothes maybe you'll find male clothes there 💙 glad you did what you wanted and cut your hair

It’s your body, your life. No one can tell u what u can and can’t do. If u feel ready to come out to your family, sit them down and tell them. Whatever happens happens but your family and people should accept u for who u are not for u they think u should be

We are all so proud of you! You are amazing and no one can take that away from you🫶🏽

Do it do it do it Pursue the gender euphoria!

I hope that you did what was best for you! I think as hard as it is if not everyone in the family will accept you sometimes going no contact with them is better I've had to do that it's hard but it was a good decision. There is never a rush to come out do it when you are ready.

I'm trying to order some off of shein! My dad looked at my cart and said some of the outfits looked nice, but then I'll tell him I wanna wear a suit instead of a dress he said he'd rather pay a lot of money to buy me a dress w shoes then have me wear a suit. My entire family is just sending me mixed signals. I wanna come out to a friend, but I got a new friend group this year so I don't feel as connected with them, especially with stuff like this because they are what many parents would consider "perfect"
