    A few months ago, I had definitively come out to myself as a trans male and even got a binder + men's clothing. I enjoyed being called 'sir' and 'gentleman' in public, even though I wasn't really out to my friends or family. I enjoyed passing. But lately I've been feeling like I want to be feminine and wear dresses and makeup and walk around in heels and stuff.. for a while I thought maybe I just wanted to like be a guy who dressed as a girl (which still kind of appeals to me) but now I wonder if I was ever trans at all or if it was just some illusion I put out for myself. Is this normal?

    Maybe you're gender fluid?

    I mean it's really just how you feel internally. You don't have to always be masculine to identify as a male. Ask yourself what makes you want to wear feminine things, because masculinity/femininity and gender identity are not related!
