Me, on HRT for 15+ years, post top-surgery: but am I really trans? 🤔

For clarity I’m happy with transitioning, the doubt just never fully went away for me. I even felt doubt as I walked into the OR, knowing I’d wanted top surgery since before I knew what it was! I think doubt just means you have a functioning brain that recognizes the dangers and social consequences of being trans. So I tell myself and congratulate myself on my self awareness, anyway.

    I’m making a bit of an assumption based on “top-surgery”, which I interpreted to mean the chop, not augmentation. If that’s the case I’m glad you’re here! I’d be glad either way, but this slice of the internet is pretty dominated by trans femmes, and I’m always glad to see our siblings using this space too!!

    I would have to agree with you about that. A big part of the doubt for me is that I really only started questioning after reading about gender online, rather than online material simply confirming feelings I already had. But I also know that if I was truly cis, I probably would not still be questioning 8 months after first reading said material.
