Hey everyone.
I'm Kayde I'm a female biologically, and I am seeking counseling for possible bigenderism. I feel so happy lately that I have realized my different genders, instead of thinking I was just bisexual. (I was confused with the dichotomous life I was living, so I thought I MUST be bisexual because they have a dichotomous sexuality.) Little did I know, sexuality and gender are a very different thing!!! Anyways, Hey everyone! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

Welcome to Laura's (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
I usually try to say something cute or witty at this point, but I'm sick and not feeling very funny, so I'll just stick with the welcome and wait for one of the other girls to bring in the cookies. *Hugs* Shi |

Hey everyone!
thanks so much for everyone's kind welcomes so far! and in case I didn't make it clear - I'm not bi - i'm bigendered. (i'm biologically female, but i love men. I just feel like a man. So I guess I'm a gay man? I don't know.) Sorry if I didn't make it clear! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) oh and I'm just basically a transgendered mess as of now, because I'm not sure of anything. I could be bigendered, or just basically transgendered as of now. I'm not sure about if I even have an ounce of femininity in my soul, and I'm not sure about my feelings of being a girl. However, I'm willing to explore my emotions & write in a journal. I bought one today, that I probably will use specifically for questions and answers and exploration, further into my trans self. but yeah (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

Nothing wrong with saving a little femininity for those special occasions (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy.gif) |

to Shilo --- Of course, as humans we must pamper! LOL
I mean, here's the confusing part, I will be upfront and talk honestly. Ok. So I'm biologically a girl, but I feel like a boy. But I feel like a gay boy. Because I love my male fiance very much. But I don't choose to have a sex change because I'm fine being female. Is this normal??? |

So I'm biologically a girl, but I feel like a boy. But I feel like a gay boy. Because I love my male fiance very much. But I don't choose to have a sex change because I'm fine being female. Is this normal??? First off, Welcome to Laura's Kayde! This is a great place and I'm sure you'll love it. Second, to your question. While I'm biologically male but feel female and am attracted to men, there are several lesbians stuck in men's bodies on this forum, so it only seems natural that a gay guy could be stuck in a girls body. And honestly, if you're a gay guy who's got at least a slight feminine personality (correct me if I'm wrong but from your posts it sounds that way), you're actually a bit luckier than a lot of us and a lot of feminine gay guys (at least the one's I've talked to) would LOVE to be a woman, at least for a while. Actually it's that point that makes it hard to explain myself to my gay friends why I'd go to such lengths as hormones to become more feminine when they feel the same way I do at times. Your situation sounds completely normal to me (but then again, what is normal anyway?). Nice to meet you! Natalie Alexis |

You sound a lot like a Biologically female version of me haha. I thought I was weird because I really wanted to be a girl, and thought that I should have been born a girl, but still liked girls. This confused me quite a bit because I thought that it was impossible to be Transsexual AND a lesbian, but it totally is I found out too. So welcome to Laura's! It's a big step in the right direction.

Oh, thank you so much everyone!
And I feel so blessed to be getting the right answers from the right people - Other trans people! And I did start my diary last night. I'm going to my therapist today too, where I can tell her about my recent discoveries about myself. she can direct me towards a group/one-on-one therapy facility for people like me, so I can understand myself better. And I don't like normal either, SusanKG! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) lol |

Many years ago and I mean many I was fooling around after a gig at a restuarant and was hanging on some chaps arm playing the gallery to some lesbian friend. I said to them that I was changing into a woman so that I could become a lesbian......some laughed others glared at me (I of course thoguht I was very funny).......little did I know then that the day would come when I would move from denial to acceptance. Am I now a lesbian, well no just slowly moving toward becoming a woman that was always there under the surface trying to blossom. Take care Hugs Madelane |
