How do I know if I'm trans?
in Psychology ·
Look, if you aren't actually feeling a deep-seated mismatch with being a guy, then you probably aren't trans.
It’s one thing to have this little fantasy about what it would be like to be a woman, but usually, to actually qualify as trans, there's this fundamental lack of masculine psychological traits that makes it impossible to identify with your birth sex. Most people out there fall pretty close to their biological sex on the spectrum, some are just neutral, but if you're sitting at like 60% on the opposite end and you genuinely can't stand living as a man, then yeah, that's when you should start seriously looking into gender reassignment surgery.
