Hi, it's nice to meet you all! One thing you should know about me is that I'm socially awkward, so I might not always reply, but I'd love to get to know you! I'm here because I don't like who I am in my own body anymore, I'm male BTW but weirdly, I feel more like a girl, and I feel more confident with that persona, I don't want to say I'm trans yet, but I feel more comfortable when I've done face filters and I've looked like a girl, is that normal?

    Hi @Notrealname6789 welcome to the mix!. I hope you enjoy on here as much as I do <3. No worries at all im also very socially awkward as well but im sure you will be able to meet like minded people here. Also, its totally okay to feel like you identify as more feminime as gender is fluid and can change over time depending on your own personal preferences. Its totally normal sometimes to question our gender because we often want to explore our identities further and its also how we feel comfortable in our bodies and what things make us feel comfortable. Im always here too if you ever wanna talk <3.

    Sending digital hugs,

    Hey @Notrealname6789 , it's so nice to meet you, and welcome! There are so many friendly people here for you to get to know <3

    Thanks for opening up about your gender identity and how you're feeling at the moment. It sounds like you're in the process of listening to yourself and figuring out what your most authentic self-expression looks like. It's okay not to have all the answers, and it's so valid to question your gender.
    You're not alone, and there are plenty of other people who feel similiarly :3 If you ever wanted to start a new thread to ask for support around your gender or explore the different thoughts and feelings this is bringing up for you, you can begin a new thread here - https://community.themix.org.uk/post/discussion/welcome.

    We're here for you, @Notrealname6789 , and so happy you've found Community!

    Hi, thank all of you for the wonderful messages! Sorry I haven't replied, I've just been focusing on college and getting better at singing, it means a lot that yall are so supportive, I don't really have that in real life, so it's a nice change!
