Hello, I'm Andy and I'm in need of some advice.

Does it seem like whenever you walk, talk, lie down, laugh, etc. that you are, for trans guys, more girly and that your body and the way you've been raised is making you seem less of the man you really are inside? I don't know what is going on. I feel so much more comfortable as a guy and in men's clothes. I've been "cross dressing" in men's clothes for 2 years and I have accepted that there is something wrong about my gender identity for well over 1 year. I feel like no matter what I do I will be a girl. Some parts of me I don't want to let go; like my sensitivity and the fact that I go to an all-girls school. But when I'm out in public I don't ever want people to see me as a girl. I hate the feeling of guys looking at me as if I were a girl and the thought of that and the sight of myself in the mirror before/after I take a shower makes me actually sick to my stomach. (more the thought of guys looking at me than the sight of myself.) Has anyone else felt this way? These feelings are, and have, made me completely rediscover myself over and over again and I feel like I'm going nowhere really fast. I also may better describe it in the first part of this video: [link]

Please message me or comment, here or on youtube, if you have any insight to what I'm feeling or can relate at all.

Resources and Info.

Anything bold and underlined is a clickable link.


:community: Joining

Come on in! We have cookies and lemonade. All you have to do is click "join group" and state which "category" you fall under (FTM, MTF, Genderqueer, Neutrois, etc) so we can put you on the The Out-Yourself Wall.

:star: EVERYONE is allowed to join, and will automatically be accepted.

:star: If you have already joined as a member, and would like to be a contributor, just tell one of the admins, and we can switch you over.



:police: Basic Etiquette and Rules
:star: PLEASE CLICK AND READ UPON JOINING

This is a support group, not a political debate group. If you consistently act rude, insensitive, or attack another member, you will be removed from the group. You mess with us, we'll mess with you.

A lot of events that take place on this page manifest from the voices of the members themselves, not just myself. This having been said, if a member finds themselves banned, it is most likely the will of a distressed portion of the group, rather than the moderators.



:gallery: Submitting Your Work

This group is specifically for art that deals with the topic of gender identity.
When submitting art to #b00b-B-gone, please make sure it fits the following:

1. Your work must be about gender identity. (We are not a group for LGB art, unless the art also has Transgender themes.)

2. Your art must be supportive of transgender and gender queer people. Work that is anti-trans or against deviantART rules will not be posted.

3. Keep submissions related to the aforementioned theme. (i.e. A picture of you with your cat or cosplaying your favorite character is really not directly related.)

4. Try to keep submissions artistic. ("Myspace photos" or shots in front of a mirror will be denied.)

5. Deviations are limited to 3/week and are subject to vote.



:pencil: Submitting Blogs

Anyone is allowed to submit a blog, as long as it is related to group interests, keeps up with DA rules, and isn't offensive. You may post personal accomplishments or failures, or you may post community news. It does not have to be in English.



:earth: Internationality

This is an INTERNATIONAL group! Anyone from anywhere speaking any language is allowed! Don't feel like you have to post in English! We allow any language in journals, art, and Maria's List of TG/GQ Media!

It tends to vary depending on the schedule of the moderators. Usually no longer than a week. :)

Don't know where to put this... I just submitted artwork, and I only wanted to submit it to the FTM category, but I think I accidentally submitted it to multiple categories, which it doesn't belong in.
Reply
:iconorigamidragon:
~origamidragon Dec 10, 2012  Hobbyist General Artist
The only category it's been submitted to is the Andro/GQ category. If you'd still like the piece in the group gallery, please resubmit it to the FTM folder. Thanks! :)

Not at all! There are currently only two very active moderators, so sometimes we miss deviations that are submitted, or are unable to get consistent access to the internet. If an image expires, please feel free to resubmit it!
