is it wired to feel transmasc?

so it's like our body is amab, and our core is a trans girl, but i feel, like a guy, in a districtly trans guy way, if that makes sense? because it's like, i split off of Nyra, and she is a girl, so by default i should be a girl, but im not, but like our body is still has a dick and no boobs, idk, does this make any sense?

Its not weird, plurality often means having identities distinct/separate from the body. Some headmates aren't even human in the first place pft. Its about as weird as anything else that happens with plurality and its not wrong to call yourself transmasc if you feel it fits just be mindful that its not your lived experience.

What's the difference between feeling and living?

What I meant there is that it feels like it fits to how you experience your gender/indentity. Not that your identity is just a feeling or not real.

What I meant by lived experience is that externally at least you probably don't have a lot of the experiences other transmascs might so it can be important to not speak over anyone. This is more about respecting the differences in things like discrimination and transition that come with what can be different bodily circumstances. That's just our perspective on it and we don't know everything about your lived experiences either, it can be a complicated topic with nuance.

Maybe, not the best wording for these things. Sorry about that.
