Without doing anything permanent

gay

But you just said you couldn’t fundamentally change it.

So your efforts are futile, no?

@Chalin He has a point, you still cannot go around pretending to be what you aren't, it is like a childs game.

No

I don't have a particularly masculine body

And I'm not interested in sex

How old are you?

So it doesn't take much effort to pass as female, other than voice

@Chalin And? Who is to say that if you did work out that you woulden't become fit?

I wish to be perceived as female when people meet me.

That's a reasonable goal

I can't be a female in the bedroom

But sex doesn't interest me anyways

@Chalin Not at all, you cannot be what you are not, pretending to be female is doing the same thing.

Do you think you really ARE a female deep down, or that you have a mental disorder (sort of akin to an anorexic) and being perceived as a female alleviates the negative symptoms (dysphoria)?

@John Mackenzie Gender disphoriam.....

Now that goes under the radar a lot.

Psychologically I'm more female than male.

What does that even mean

It's not a huge difference between male and female psychology

What are female psychological traits then?

That's why people come up with the spectrum nonsense

@John Mackenzie being stupid

@Chalin That is only due to you rigorously forcing yourself to have a difference.

More empirically attuned

Socially would be a better word than psychologically

Actually

@Chalin So you talk a lot.... and?

How is that inheriently a female trait?

I suppose they mean the traits attributed to females

Wait can you answer my question about mental disorder? Do you recognize gender dysphoria as a disorder (one which you wish to treat with cross dressing and voice therapy)?

Gender dysphoria is a disorder, yes

Empirically? Surely you mean emphatic?

Empathetic*

I wouldn't really say there's any cure for dysphoria, sadly

Reassignment surgery certainly isn't a cure

Yeah it really isn't

Reassignment doesn't really help suicide rates

There’s no *physical* cure
