How do I stop being embarrassed over being trans?Asking people to call me my preferred name or to use she/her actually embarrasses me and makes me cringe on the inside. Getting misgendered or deadnamed feels one thousand times worse but getting gendered correctly still feels bad. I don't have this problem online though and to the people I know there I don't feel this kind of shame, I guess it's probably because they can't see what I look like and for all they know I pass but to people in person it is abundantly clear that I do not
I want to be a woman, but I do not feel like one at all, and asking people to call me one makes me feel like an imposter and so uncomfortable
Whenever I'm in a situation where everyone says their pronouns I want to rip all my skin off and die. I don't want someone she/her-ing me because I told them to do that, I want them to she/her me because they actually genuinely think that it fits me
I 100%, totally understand this. I absolutely hate asserting my gender. Idk, some friends of mine think I should but I kind of refuse to. If someone asks me I just say "She/they either or". Idk what else to say but I understand the struggle ❤️
someone referred to me as he the other day then stopped to ask my pronouns afterwards and I wanted to jump out of my skin instead of saying she/her
Yeah for me it depends on the context. Sometimes, to me someone asking at least means that I'm confusing them which I take as a win
