Other than my horrific bone structure, the main barrier that keeps me from passing as a man is my unwillingness to put any effort in, which I believe stems from my lack of genuine gender dysphoria. Is it possible then that forcing myself to become distressed by any feminine physical and mental characteristics I have would give me the proper motivation to successfully transition?
>>43823484Why are you doing this if you have no dysphoria?
>>43823616I've wanted to be male in some capacity for over a decade now and I enjoy most of the effects of testosterone I've experienced so far.
>>43823653so you're willing to go to the bother of taking testosterone but won't cut your hear and wear male clothing?
>>43823839My problem is that I genuinely enjoy femininity (and fear looking like a completely unpassable poon) to do so. I'm not willing to socially transition or even butchmode until I'm able to reach a certain level of masculinity both mentally and physically, but I'll never be able to achieve that anyway if I can't make myself hate femininity to some degree.
>>43823875if you genuinely enjoy femininity then why do you want to be male?

>>43823915Riddle for the ages. In another life I'd just be a run-of-the-mill femfag, but in this one I'm stuck as a woman with a bunch of contradictory desires. I can't make sense of it myself.
>>43823875don't be a coward, bite the bullet, its worth it.
>>43823484I have the exact same problem, except I'm mtf. I really don't know what can be done to induce serious dysphoria, or if it's even possible, but I'll keep trying for as long as possible
>>43823943Cowardice is only part of it, being too lazy to workout and too attached to femininity to fully abandon it is what's really stopping me from going any further.>>43824006Godspeed sister. Have you had any luck in your attempts so far? Did you ever enjoy masculinity in the first place, and if so, how did you manage to give up on it?
>>43825214fembrained typing, sad
>>43823484> gender dysphoria = body image conflict> lack gender dysphoria = lack body image conflict> transition = resolve body image conflict> want to motivate self to transition by aggravating gender dysphoria = want to resolve body image conflict by making the body image conflict worsemake it make sense, you are probably just a goonerthat is some weird ass circular reasoning you got there
>>43825214i thought the purpose of trooning out is to be happy/your true self?what is the purpose of abandoning your desires and affinity because "men dont do X, and i must not do X?" you are subservient to societal molds lmao
>>43825386It shouldn't come as a surprise.>>43825487I'm using the autoandrophilia flag for a reason, but yeah I see how contradictory it all is. My hope is that aggravating my body image issues will make me uncomfortable enough with my female sex characteristics that I will become driven to reshape my body completely, and will no longer be complacent with a failed transition.>>43825536Becoming your true self is only for poons whose sense of self already aligns with masculinity. Embracing your inner nature is the worst idea ever if you'd just end up as a hefab.
>>43825599lmao you ever considered that what you are in internal turmoil over i have it from day 1?enjoy philosophizing your way to manhood, and getting lost along the way back to where you first started kekw
