i cant tell u literally how many times this happened to me before i sat myself down to have a big think. i was about 7 or so beers deep that night (it was a rough one 2020) and just said "fuck it, yolo. i'ma be a girl." and pounded another beer
Behold, the most painfully egg comic I wrote pre-coming out. I really should have guessed sooner. The 'someone' I'm referring to here is gender ambiguous but in my case it was the various incredibly hot trans women that ended up peppering my TL after I spent enough time on here.

Wait..... it's not normal to, upon seeing every single pretty woman on my Twitter feed, think to myself "I would kill myself to reincarnate as her or her girlfriend instantly"??
@BlackheartSora
It took me a bit longer and a lot of denial before deciding I needed to be honest with myself and explore my gender. Joined Twitter in January of 2021 as a cis man, came out as nonbinary in the autumn of 2022 and now I'm trying to get on estrogen lol.
@BlackheartSora
for me this kind of 'oof' feeling only got really pronounced once I started transitioning and the idea that I might actually be a woman took form. i began to notice those whom I, as someone trying to feminise, would mostly be compared to, ie other trans women
@BlackheartSora
I decided I was going to come out in psychiatric ER (because the alternative was going to psychiatric ER a bunch more times from unmitigated dysphoria)
@BlackheartSora
i did this but with prozac. i was laying in a hotel bed, looking up at the ceiling, and just kinda calmly accepted it
weird how it can come down to such a nonchalant realization after years of repressing
@BlackheartSora
i can't believe how many signs i can retroactively see that should've made me realize what was going on, but i simply didn't at the time. it kinda makes me feel weak whenever i think about it
