It just doesn't feel right, being a girl. I mean, it has it's positives but I don't know. Does any other girl feel like this?
I just wish I was a boy.
Being a boy is horrible. Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't want to be a girl and I don't feel "trapped", but being a boy in this day and age just isn't nice.

There are plenty of people that feel they're trapped in the wrong body. I personally think that being a guy is better and has more advantages, but I don't actually feel that I'm a boy or that I'd want to be one.
It certainly is set up that way in society in many ways.

Hence the need for feminism.
If there is\was a patriarchy (and I think there is\was one of some kind) both men and women play their part in enforcing it and it isn't just women who get a bad deal out of it (even if women did\do come off worse). I would rather not have to fight in wars for imperialistic nation states just because I am a man and could do without being guilt tripped into fighting by women ¬¬
Hey If it's an option for you, I'd make an appointment with your GP and talk about these issues. It's possible that you're somewhere on the trans* spectrum, meaning that you don't identify with the gender you were assigned at birth. That doesn't mean you have to transition but it'd definitely worth talking through and learning a bit more about gender Feel free to PM me if you ever want to talk!
I don't know why, I don't know how to explain it, it's all very confusing!
I just don't feel like a woman.
If you don't know what it feels like to be a woman because you have never felt like a woman before, how do you know that you don't feel like a woman? That being said, how can you be sure you feel like a man and not just a woman that doesn't feel like a woman?
I ask these things because I never ponder my own gender or what it is like for me to be a man compared to me being a woman... does it really matter so much, what kind of body you have or don't have? What kind of crap you have to deal with compared to the crap other people have to deal with? Can't you just be comfortable being you, working with the body you were born with?
On the whole I am happy and probably glad I am male. But I do get curious to what it is like to have a clitoris and sometimes the thought of being a stay at home mum with a well off breadwinner of a husband does seem appealing :/

I'll think about that and thanks for both the offer and the suggestion.

I guess it is confusing.
Maybe that's it, maybe I'm just a woman that doesn't feel like a woman.
And you're right, maybe it doesn't matter. I'll just be me, stop worrying about the other stuff.
