Don't feel like a female

I don't know why but I've always felt this way and have not thought too much about it until now. I don't feel much of a woman because I don't feel like I go through the same things as my female friends.I can understand them but cannot say I'm on the same boat as them. I've always felt like I was equal or better than men, even if I have not been treated that way I never thought if it due to being a woman. I don't get jealous of other women, instead I look at them with admiration or appreciation if they have something I dont or better than me etc. But I do get jealous of guys for silly reasons, such as me not being physically strong and small.

When it comes to relationships, I've had troubles because I act nonchalantly in them and don't put my emotions too much into them. Which I cannot help or tried to fix.

In relation to appearance, I am attractive and I don't really put much effort in the clothes I wear or makeup.

Note: I am not a lesbian. And other than what I listed I act a bit masculine like a "tom-boy" I suppose.

Is it normal? Similar stories/situations out there?

    I sometimes wish I was a guy. I admire the fact that tey can build muscles bigger and faster than women. I wish I could do that.. I also took automotive service courses for 3 years in highschool and one year in college. I prefer wearing men's clothing over women's because it's just so much more comfortable, and my shoulders are kinda broad so the shirts fit me better. I also wish that I could shave my head bald so I don't have to deal with it everyday. I'm not a lesbian either.

  • Yes, it's normal. Not all women are the same. As long as it's not bothering you to be a women rather than a man, I think everything's fine. If you do however wish you were a man most of the time, talk to a psychologist. Just be who you want to be inside, and express yourself. Life is so much easier ones you stop caring about what people think (unless it's positive people).

    Well I'm not that much of a stereotypical man myself. I'm certainly not "one of the lads".

    I hate playing and watching team sports. I'm skinny and not very athletic. Id much prefer to do take pictures or make animations.

    Although I am straight I make a conscious effort not to ogle at girls like the masculine stereotype. Sometimes my friends will say things like "I would do her" when they see an attractive girl and all I usually do is vaguely wonder if she noticed that I was the only one not staring at her tits.

    The masculine stereotype seems to make us out to be arseholes. And the female one makes out that women are either pathetic weaklings or self-centred bitches. I think it's a good thing not to be at those extremes.

    I think somewhere in between conformist and rebel is the best place to be.

    I kind of feel the same. I've noticed that there are certain aspects of my character and behavior that is considered more 'manly'. The whole emotional attachment is a good example. Many times I will prefer not to show my emotions when something happens. I just don't feel comfortable showing my weaknesses with other people other than family. And when it comes to clothing I dress like a 'girl' but I don't really wear makeup often or experiment with my hair. Other than that, I'm always interested in men (when that happens). ;) Long story short... Normal!
