I dont know, i was born intersex and all my life I was given but girl opporunities and boy opporunties and Boys more though. I felt more close to being a boy cause of that. Most of my life has been gendered but idk truly
english is my 3rd language so sorry about misspellings

#

but i felt like both so i assume im genderfluid but i am still unsure

i agree with you

well transgender is an umbrella term, even if your not FTM, or MTF but you identify as something different then your gender assigned at birth (like your female, but your agender) you would still count as transgender

hm thank you that really helped! i was so scared to use the label and be told it wasnt mine to use due to how diffirent it was

yeah of course! because its an umbrella term, anyone can technically use it because its very open to all people no matter if your intersex or you only have one gender assigned at birth, because even if you technically have both genders biologically you can still identify with transgender! and if someone is judging you because your using the transgender label then just ignore them, labels have no bounds

wait but with all due respect, xxy is intersex condition. I feel feminine. does that make me an intersex female?

yeah. modeler and shark... But male is on my birth certificate. I remember seeing that intersex is qualified as a sex in 2016 to now, but given i was born 15 years ago, that was too late already. plus ive been male my whole life it feels extremely wrong to identify as female or non binary now.

#

honestly i fall somewhere between non binary (he/they) pronouns, and trans (she/her, she/they) pronouns
