But I still feel female or occasionally genderless and have no sexual interest in other women.

Is that transgender? Or do I need to feel male?
........ok, I'll put it this way.

Do you feel like you should have been born male instead?

Do you feel like you really are male, and that there's something wrong because your brain and body don't match?

Do you find it nearly impossible to wear feminine clothes and do very feminine things? Do you get very depressed before/during/after you do?

Does it bother you when people refer to you as "she"?

Do you ever want to just destroy your body?

That's more of what it means to be trans...what you posted is just stereotypical gender role BS that you managed to not get forced into somehow. Congrats. I really don't see how you could be transgender. You've just managed to avoid the girly girl princess mold.

Also, not being sexually attracted to women has nothing to do with it. Sexuality and gender identity are two completely different things.
Thanks for this!
