Anyone has experience with being trans but not wanting to do anything about it? (leminal.space)

Basically I'm like 99% sure I'm trans. If I could just magically physically be a woman right now, I would immediately, and probably never present male again.

However, I look male, I have a beard, broad shoulders, a penis, etc, and I don't really mind either. Transitioning would be annoying and since I lived so long as a man, I'll never pass, and I don't like a "mixed look" at all. And yeah, I really don't mind my body, I find men attractive, I find women attractive, I find myself attractive. I'm fine with what biology decided I should look like.

Does anyone share this kind of view on themselves? I only have tangential contact with any trans communities, and I never really see this sentiment represented.

My goal was to figure out if there are others who feel similarly, because I seem to be pretty alone in what I'm experiencing. There are plenty of trans people who feel bad about being the wrong gender and want to transition, and they find connection with others who feel similarly. I just wanted the same thing for myself, which I thought my post indicated.
