I recently told my girlfriend who I’ve been dating for a year about my gender dysphoria. She was taken back at first, but has been supportive of me ever since. She calls me “Gamer Girl” and I go by Natalie. She wants me to become a full trans-girl, because she thinks it would make me happy. But what people think of me is what tells me not to. Do I feel like I would be happier if I was trans? Yes. But do I want to? No. My family would hate me, as well with my friends. I’ve already told a close friend of my dysphoria and he said it’s because I lack “manliness” and should hit the gym. He clearly wouldn’t understand me if I started going by Natalie, and became a chick.
