Do you think you were meant to be a girl?

Oh yes, I remember from a very young age (4-5?) my grandmother saying that I would have been such a cute girl. I’ve always had feminine mannerisms, and found myself kinda small , in height......... and other places🙄 But tried fending them off by doing boy activities ( which I hated, but wanted to make my parents happy), even did the marriage thing for a few years. But as hard as I tried, I couldn’t keep my fem side subdued and finally just gave in to her🤷‍♀️ I still have to do the guy thing for work, but other than that I go fem. I’m happy with crossdressing, the medications and surgeries to do a complete change is so expensive and I don’t like being cut on, LoL.

I am three of four boys..............and believe mom wanted me to be a girl.  She grew up with sisters and one brother..........and I think all women want a girl in there somewhere.    So.........three of four........like strike three you out??   She managed to name me Kim..........a girly sounding name for a boy.........it's on the birth certificate..............got blowback in school over that............so I used my middle name.   My dad never called me Kim...............and when asked about it .......he would become agitated and angry.....................relatives avoided the question.      When I was around eight, I found a box of dresses.........from an aunt and maybe my dad's customers as" hand down" well wishes gifts.  One fit me nicely...........and it felt wonderful!!!  Pleasured myself and fell asleep to awaken with a blanket over me!!!   Could not have been from dad.........he would gone insane.  Could  not have been from brothers......they would have teased me.   Mom!!  We never talked about it.   Her mental state deteriorated over a number of things................wish we could have talked...........but she did get a glimpse of her girl sleeping!!!   I can only hope that sight gave her some joy......................karley

I chose YES. I was the youngest of 3 boys. My mother wanted a girl. I was emotionally sensitive, nurturing and in touch with my mother's emotions. When I was a young child, I wanted to be a girl. I was expected to follow the footsteps of my older brothers and dad. Not show your emotions and be a tough guy. I tried so hard to live that lie my whole life. I have now accepted my real self. My mom passed away years ago. I hope she is looking down on her daughter that she always wanted. She lived in a house full of male chauvinistic pigs. The poor woman just wanted someone to talk to.

Well, yes, probably.  My mother and father had a boy first, named after our father,  and I came along a couple of years later and I'm sure my mother was hoping for a girl.  A few years later she had another boy. And then a very terrible event happened which changed everything.  I was about 4 and needing lots of love, and our mother needed someone to love back, and I grew up shy and sensitive, and all that.

But...upon looking into it, and reading a lot, I've come to the conclusion that it wasn't nurture that made me this way, but it greatly influenced where things were headed. Some slight chemical (or whatever) imbalance, genes matching up in certain ways, who knows what today anyway, exactly why ( tho, I have no doubt in 20-40 years things will have been a little more figured out, and then look out, Zager and Evans will have been pretty good future predicters, just a lot sooner than 2525).

Growing up, I quickly learned what I was on the outside, and what I knew I was on the inside, and it made life a challenge, for sure. And since then, I've lived this duo life, wondering what would have happened if I had pushed myself the other way.

Just an aside, by the 1970's/I had read Conundrum by Jan Morris, Canary by Canary Conn and Mirror Images by Nancy Hunt, and I knew that given enough desire, going tg was a much more viable option than I had thought. However, I was into a 2nd marriage and several children (and now grandkids) all of whom I love dearly and I can't imagine giving all that up.

Yes I know I'm a girl in my thinking and feelings unfortunately my girl parts weren't fully developed I've always had a very micro penis thats not a real man. I'm the youngest of five boys and two girls but in reality it should be four boys and three girls. Growing up I wasn't interested in fast cars, action movies or girls. I liked fashion, beauty. So of course I grew up pretending to be a boy and a  man. It's hard trying to be something that don't match how you think and feel. Now I'm realizing in my soul, heart and my thinking has always been a girl and now a woman. It sucks trying to be someone that your not just to please everyone. Unfortunately I'm still in the closet listening to Carly crying for me to let her out.

Over the years it has been just the wearing of women's clothing that I have enjoyed ,but in the last 2 or 3 years where I have been able to underdress and buy more bras and panties etc and wear them nearly every day ,I wish I had been born a girl ,can't do anything now and wouldn't want to as I have a loving wife and three lovely daughters ,but what I can do is 'dress and dream'   Michelle  xx

Hi Angela Thats a great question I have to answer both yes and no. If you asked my parents and the DR when i first was born they would defiantly so no they looked at me and said" ITS A BOY' Then I was celebrated and treated like a boy. I was taught and dressed as any boy would be. Around the age 5 or 6 I began to to be attracted to my sisters clothes and i was a little jealous how she was dressed and treated. If how i thought was in charge the answer is defiantly yes I should of been born a girl. It would of made life so much easier for me. So begins a life of yes no  yes no yes no yes no . Just love and accept who you are as a person and go from there. Luv Stephanie

Yes.  I've  felt that emotion since I was a young child.

Born a boy, should have been a girl. I don't blame my parents, God, pesticides, or aerosol sprays.  Heck my mom Wanted a girl, tho dad was happy with another boy.

It was an " oops " of birth.

As I sit here in a dress heels wig bra with forms and of course panties, I am calmer and enjoy the feminine feeling of being a woman, wish I could do this more often.  Out of 100%, I believe 75% of me wishes to be a woman full time and 25% enjoys being a male.  That's my 2 cents

I have to say yes and no because I absolutely love the feelings but I feel no hate for my male anatomy really.

Yes, I do.
