ive had many people tell me that i cant be both bisexual and transgender. i say that i liked girls and guys when i thought i was a girl, i still like guys and girls now that i identify as male. i think that my sexual identity and my gender identity are two different things. sometime si wonder if im faking being trans. i dont think i am, but my anxiety makes me think so.

I don't see why one couldn't be both bisexual and transgender. I do agree with you as well; sexual identity and gender are two separate things. If you believe you're trans then you are trans, don't let other people make you feel like you're a fake. I hope things get better for you and your anxiety doesn't keep making you feel terrible.

you can definitely be both, whoever told you you can't has no clue about anything really. If you like more than one gender then you're bi

I think anyone who really knows what they're talking about will agree that gender identity and sexual orientation are entirely separate issues. Saying that someone has to like the opposite sex of their identified gender is just as narrow-minded as saying a cisgender person needs to prefer their opposite sex. The beauty of human gender and sexuality is that it is not confined to a limited combination outcomes, but an entire spectrum of human individuality.
