Like, for example, it seems like anything that implies you having a feminine identification makes you feel really vulnerable or maybe even disgusted? It seems like the treatment that you expect as a result of being female makes you not want to identify with femaleness at all. It seems like you're looking for a way to cope with those feelings and right now the best solution you have is to avoid too much exposure to sexuality or involvement in sexual experiences.

Do you have someone in your life you feel comfortable talking to about that? You know? Sometimes we just need to be heard and not judged and need to feel like someone really cares.
I talk to my boyfriend about these things often. I think it's just the feeling of not fitting in and not being accepted and understood for who I am (since I have to hide these kind of details). I'm basically just playing the role of being straight and 100% girl. I'm afraid I would never be accepted in the gay community because they understandably don't like bisexuals. The trans/non-binary gender community is more accepting, but I just felt out of place. I can't have female friends, because what if I am or become attracted to them? I can't have male friends because I feel too inferior to connect to them on a meaningful level.
