Hi Mia!

Thanks for your question. In fact, there are a lot of possibilities about what’s happening right now.

Some people are just more comfortable with guys than girls and act, ways we call, more traditionally “masculine”. Sometimes society forces boys and girls to act in a particular way – to play only with certain toys and not with certain other, to wear only such or such color etc. But sometimes personalities are less “traditional”, and that’s nothing to worry about.

For some people, however, the feeling of being part of the opposite sex is really strong. They feel they want to be a man (or a woman) and nothing can change that. The process of changing sex (transsexuality or transgenderism) is long and costs a lot. If you want to go in that direction you should think about it for some time and try to see if you really want to be a guy or if you just feel more comfortable surrounded by guys, but in your woman body.

How do you feel about your feminine body? How do you feel about the fact that people call you “Miss” and not “Mr.”?

So, take your time in order to think carefully about your future. Try to see how you picture yourself as an adult – as a woman, maybe less traditional, or as a man?

Hope it helps,
