what am I?
I can never figure out exactly what or who I am. For as long as I can remember I've been fascinated with the idea of having the experience of being a girl. Even when I was very young this idea was extremely appealing from a curiosity perspective. When I started masturbating at age 10/11 it was first to the idea of becoming a woman. I have no idea where it was implanted in my mind to masturbate to this idea, it was just innate in some way. The idea of being a woman was a turn on to me.
Years later, I'm very much an admirer of t-girls but always imagine myself in the roll of being a woman. I'm very into transformation fiction, etc. I can get off to straight porn but always imagining myself as taking on the roll of the woman. I've never been attracted to a man in real life, but am often attracted to females and have had girlfriends though I must admit I've never really enjoyed sex with women and have a hard time ejaculating when having straight sex despite the fact that I physically and mentally am stimulated. So where does that leave me? In some ways, I feel I have some transgendered qualities-- for a long time the idea of being a girl has attracted and fascinated me in some way, although it became more of a sexual fascination when I was older. At the same time, I never dressed and doubt I ever will and I'm very comfortable and ok with being a man. While I'm attracted to the idea of being a trans girl, I'm not particularly attracted to actual transgirls or to guys, just women. I've never revealed my feelings to anyone ever. |

I'm not one who likes to place people in boxes, and reall that's what labeling does. But, for what it's worth..
Autogynophilia is the arousal of imagining oneself as a woman. Amongst the Trans* community this term is pretty loaded and is rather controversial. Some gals feel this perfectly describes their motivations in transitioning or a part of their process. Some gals feel that it lumps them in with sexual fetishists in a way that erases their motivations to transition. If the label fits, and you find comfort with it, bravo! It may be a starting point to self-discovery. It may be some new information that doesn't fit at all for you. Either way, it is important to note that "man-trans-woman" is a scale and lots of people fall all over the place in various points in their lives. Labels and definitions are only useful if they help an individual process their own experiences.

Do you think there would be any interest in a thread discussing Indian mythology dealing with transgendered gods?

You're asking yourself, 'What am I?'
Most people live all their lives without ever asking themselves that... I asked mine some time ago, but I still haven't come to a complete stop yet. |

you are what you are, why try and define it. just be you and be happy with yourself and not care what anyone else thinks.

Good point. Incidentally the same could be applied to "straight-bi-gay" in regard to that often posed question.

If you wake up board member 'sesame' I'm sure he'll have something to say on the Indian mythology of transgendered gods.
