Just for clarification anyone who expresses hostility or invalidation towards people who “want” to be any specific identity, will be immediately and permanently banned. This is a transmedicalist gatekeeping mentality that frankly isn’t supported here, or on blahaj as a whole. If a person wants to be some gender identity, and they identify that way, it is valid and to be respected no ands, ifs, or buts.
I know OP was talking about an internal process that happens but I felt that this needed to be said, because this type of thinking process arises because of that type of gatekeeping.
