Reply To: How Do You Know if You Are Trans?

Greetings and salutations everyone.

I am a 40 year old gay man and I am not sure if I qualify as transgender.

I will soon be taking estrogen and other feminization hormones and have begun using a breastpump…but it is not for the purpose of becoming a woman.

No desire to be a woman but also no desire to remain merely a man.
I seek a balence between male and female…both in one body.

I’m tired of not recognizing the person I see in the mirror…I need my reflection to show who I am inside…who I’ve always been.

I do not know if I am making any sense…it is still strange to me…talking about this to anyone.

Any information as to what I am and how to proceed that you can give me would be greatly appreciated

Please and thank you.
Sincerely…
River.
