Answer 1

well , if you want to act like a woman you should act with them , and live with them

but no need to accept yourself as a woman

you may 've seen alot of mistakes in the guys so that's why you want to act like a woman , but what if you accepted yourself like a woman and failed !

then what you want to be ?

so you can change your mind , belive yourself , belive in your personality , you know women are not stable , they 're not wise enough , you should thank your god for being a man

it's your choice

good luck

Answer 2

Well, think it through. How do you feel being a chick? How would you feel being a guy? If you really think you would be better off being a guy, or if you feel you are a guy, then accept it. If you think you are going through a tomboyish phase, then it will pass - in time.

Answer 3

I think you should go somewhere far away from where you live and dress up like a man. Just live a normal day in the life of the average man and see how you feel. It might change your mind about wanting to suppress your feelings.

I also think you should see a psychologist and see if you aren't a "true" transgender woman but just messed up and in need of some guidance.

Sorry if you don't like this answer. I've never had those feelings so I don't the best thing you should do. But those two things would probably help.

Answer 4

You say that being taken for a guy makes you feel happy, but you need to stop this feeling.

Why do you feel that you need to stop being happy?

Is it because of family, or societal, pressure, or some misconception that you have been taught?

Ultimately, the only person you have to answer to is the person in your mirror; no-one else really matters.

Be yourself, whoever that is.

I'd suggest that you talk to a counsellor with experience in gender issues; he or she will help you to decide who you are, and what (if anything) you need to do about it.

Answer 5

You're a beautiful woman, that is why! Why do you take pleasure in having a revolting p***s?

Answer 6

You know what?

I wouldn't blame you one bit if you wanted to get your s*x changed...

You don't have to accept being a woman if that's not who you are inside.  Because just accepting yourself as a woman when it's not who you feel like on the inside would be a lie and it will hurt you.

For example, are you in any way repulsed by the fact that you have a female body?

Answer 7

remember even if you change your s*x for that feelings , you cant change your heart , cuz the blood which runs in your body and heart belongs A MAN ... not a woman..

Answer 8

it is your life. if you wish to be a boy then so be it. to me it seems odd but it is the way of life when you make your decisions and so be it. remember that maybe you will have abit of pressure on you to change back to a woman once you've changed. remember that you may get a weird stare from some people once they know that you have changed your s*x. make sure that if you want to marry one day, that you will be comfortable liking woman or men and that the person or your partner your in love with is ok with that. i guess you can change it back to being a woman if you want, but you'll need plastic surgery and things and you may be changed. remember that it costs heaps and you may have to pay for it twice if you want to change back. i think you should discuss this with your parents, friends,relatives and family or people who you are comfortable with to talk to it about. there are also many social workers and other people that can help you decide.  even phycologists and people like that can help you deicdide DONT RUSH IT.you have time, years and years. remember this will be a big decision, a decision that can change your life.

just follow your heart and see where it takes you whether you end up being a boy or girl. good luck! =)

it is your choice.

(by the way how old are you?)

Answer 9

Maybe that's juyst the way you feel and should accept it. I personally don't believe in gender difference and don't really care what s*x I am.

But you should feel happy, so I would suggest coming to terms with it insterad of trying to be something you aren't. Seek a counseller and conisder being a trasvstite or having the full op.

Answer 10

You say you 'need' to stop the feeling, but you don't say you 'want' to stop the feeling.

Being a woman can be whatever you want it to be ~ don't feel pressured into conforming to pointless stereotypes, most of which are unrealistic and ridiculous.

Have you thought about contacting an organisation where you can talk openly about how you feel and discuss the options you have for your future life?
