I definitely feel you on that. There are no answers for a lot of us. When I was a kid I even concluded I was gay for a while just to make sense of things, but then the puberty hormones rushed in and I was… *double* attracted to women? As in wanting to be with them AND be one, but which more than the other? Then it’s hard to be confident in yourself as a man when you’re just that unattracted to yourself! Maybe I feel okay in my body, but what about the mirror? Who wouldn’t prefer to see a beautiful woman smiling back at them there? Think about it and it will drive you crazy, do something to change or do nothing to change and it’s not terribly satisfying either, and worst of all it never ends.
