So, I really have this question. Because, when people ask for my pronouns they have a problem with me saying "He/She/They." They want me to pick one specifically. But what if I don't have a specific pronoun? I mean, I prefer to go by masculine ones, I'm genderfluid. But some days I have fun doing make-up and looking pretty. I'm not sure what gender I am so I cover all the bases.

I have a female body. I identify as male. But I don't hate my body, or feel like I need to change it. I really love myself. Do I want at least top surgery? I'm thinking about it down the road. But I don't go through my gender feelings hating myself or my reflection. There's no real psychological distress, just having to deal with abuse or comments from my family members. I see a boy in the mirror despite what shape and what's on my body. I just think I confuse people. Like they want a black and white category for me to be in, but I'm all rainbows and outside of the box.

Is that a problem? I hope it's okay for me to just be myself.
