Kinda confused about what I want from life. I'm genetically male, and recently came to the discovery that while I don't want to be male, there's quite a lot I don't like about the idea of being female either. I think the thing I dream of most is being a sexually immature boy. Failing that, genderless/hermaphroditic. is this normal?
So little bit baffled.
Also, two different friends came out as transgender to me this week. That's a record for me.
Welcome to the zoo! Keep looking around and poking into things here. You'll discover that you are not alone. There are many here whose proper gender is neither male nor female. There's a vast range in between.
As an outsider looking in and trying to understand the folks who hang out here, I've been writing articles for medical journals about this well-hidden, but very real, set of people who don't fit into the neat pigeonholes of life.
If you would like to have your own copies of some of the articles, including a proposed Standards of Care for medical personnel, drop me a <Private Message> and give me an off-Archive email address that will accept attachments in PDF format. (Click on my name to the left and follow the prompts.)

I'm new here. Been lurking a little while though.

Welcome!
Hey, we're twins!
I often dream of being born 'different', "hermaphroditic", as you say. Inability to be either, and be both at the same time. Choose to do anyone, when I feel like it.

Haha mine's non sexual though, I find. I think my dream is for sex to not really be an issue, which doesn't make sense, because I have quite a lot of sex. At 22, in a town with a LOT of gay slags, it's really not difficult Apparently I'm quite attractive, too
