This is not a joke. I have come to the realization that I have what I believe to be a female brain or at the very least a female psyche and outlook.

I do not feel the need to alter my appearance or body in any way. That might be the right decision for some but Im comfortable with my appearance even if it doesnt align with my mental identity. Im a woman in the body of a man, but thats ok. I dont need to change myself to be female, because as far as Im concerned I already am female, and I feel at peace with the realization.

You can call me she if you want to, or call me he, or Mead, or whatever. Its all good.

There are a ton of people who feel fine with their current body but still feel emotionally a different gender, so I can dig it.

There are other cultures who have specific terms for things like this from just about every imaginable angle.

I used to feel like I had a man's brain in a girl's body, though in my case that was more about toxic gender roles and not realizing I could be me and still be female. :P

I mean, I honestly can't tell if he's joking either. Knowing Mead, him saying it's not a joke just made me wonder even more if it's a joke. Plus the situation he described just sounds like maybe he's confused about what he perceives as "feminine" thoughts. Isn't that more like "genderqueer" than transgender since he hasn't expressed a desire to transition, or are they basically synonyms?

tbh i feel like i might be several different genders sometimes.

though i mostly feel like genders and gender roles are bullshit so i don't really care? not trying to sound edgy, i just really am not sure i believe in them anymore.

I disn't mean to come off as offensive. I can't sense tone through the Internet all too well, and people joke about stuff that shouldn't be joked about all the time.

Wait is this a thing?

I mean I'm comfortable in my body but there are tons of things that I do/think like etc that are more female and those stupid gender identity tests all made me like 97% female lol.

I don't really care, I'm me. I burp, I eat food fast, and I don't care at all about my appearance (not sure if that is a man thing, but it's more common in men).

I also love to cook, care about everyone and "mother" them, sing when I'm happy, and randomly dance sometimes.

Female, male, I'm me. Take it or leave it, and I feel no need to define it. Be you, be happy and screw anyone who tries to take that away from you (not literally).

There is no such thing as a male or female brain. Just the presence of different levels of certain hormones. Unless, you're a clownfish or whiptail lizard or something you are either male or female barring a genetic glitch

I'm just grasping at straws here because a guy who thinks/acts like a woman isn't transgender. It's just a feminine guy or even Metrosexual guy.

It's an interesting question to be honest. At what point does someone become "trans" instead of just being a guy who has a feminine side, or likes things traditionally liked by girls?

Sexual preference is totally different, so that is put aside. I believe transgendered was usually used for those who felt they were in the wrong body, and liked to dress up as the opposite (or correct for them) sex.

But what if you just get along better with girls, enjoy their company more, and enjoy things that are usually attractive to girls not guys? I mean there are tons of girls like that, often called Tomboys etc, and they are not considered trans (unless they dress as a guy etc).

So a guy that actually likes girl stuff, how should he be defined?

Personally I think you should not define anyone and just let everyone define themselves however they want, if at all. Me? I don't feel the need to define myself, but more power to anyone who does.

I like guys and girls equally. I don't have any desire to sleep with guys, but as I have gotten older, the desire to sleep with girls has drastically decreased as well, to the point of it not being much different anymore.

I think I identify as a guy mostly, but am not concerned by what is manly, or not, I do what I like based on my personality. I was a nanny for instance, not a very manly occupation! Not only didn't it bug me, I was proud of it (not many guys do that job).

As far as his wife, if she is happy with their relationship, I doubt it will matter at all to her. He is who is is, and who he has been, and if she loves that person, how he identifies himself won't make a difference at all.

I dont act feminine though, not outwardly anyways. I just have what I would call more feminine thought processes compared to your average member of the male sex, and I now feel more comfortable with myself identifying as female.

Yeah I had thought that transgender usually meant you intend to live your life outwardly as the other gender, but maybe that's wrong or the definition has changed in recent years

Girls who dress as guys are not trans and cross-dressers are not trans either by my understanding. When young I used to "go out with" a tomboy. So many labels for people that I've lost count. It's best to just be yourself and not label yourself though.

As do I in some cases. Doesn't mean I'm female.
