I figured out women

[Oneeye]

This is the only account I have ever made here.

Also, what is the difference between a transvestite and a transsexual? Is one before and the other after they get the surgery?

Transvestite is playing dress up. Transgender is a medical disorder.

I have some oversized men's T-shirts that I sleep in. Does that count as transvestite, or not?

I know this sounds stupid, but I just cant fundamentally grasp the whole concept of changing genders 100%. I'm pre-med too, so it's not like I'm.completely ignorant either, I just have a hard time with it.

Pics or it is lies.

Nope. Your humor and posting style is very masculine. You're not fooling me unless you post pics Miss.Arab-Finn

Lol, I get that a lot actually, when I bring it up online. I wonder if this is die to my autism, apparently autistic women interact socially very much like regular men. Sooo, yeah, about the pictures. I was considering it, when I get home in a few weeks, but I really dont know anymore, considering the creepy messages I have gotten from certain individuals, and the Wahhabi core wanting me dead.

HARAM! But seriously, if I do post a pic, I'll probably do it with niqab on. I dont want my identity to be known in any way, and it's always a risk if I post a picture.

That's cool, as long as you do it with a sheet of paper that says, "Netflix and Icecream"

No, it'd only be considered transvestitism if you were deriving sexual pleasure from wearing mens clothes. A woman wearing mens clothing because she thinks they look nice isn't transvetitism, nor is a man wearing a piece of women's clothing because he likes the aesthetics (though in this later case, many often will assume it is as its generally less acceptable for men to cross dress than women to do so)

There's also a related but less known paraphilia, Homeovestism, in which a person derives sexual pleasure from wearing clothes of their own gender. It doesn't really have much attention for obvious reasons.

As for changing genders, well, it's not really changing "gender", gender is an odd thing that seems to be caused by a mix of physical brain structure, brain chemistry, socialization and the development of a self identity and self awareness; and it's well known that it's not the same as physical/biological sex. Thus, one doesn't change their gender, more like alter their sex to be more accepted by society at large as their gender, as well as treat the effect that a brain of their gender in an incongruent body produces (namely horrifying discomfort and a deep feeling of self-disgust and revulsion towards the body). To say that they "change" their sex is a bit of misnomer, as no one can really "change" their sex, but its more like treating a problem.

References to transgender women and male transvestites are found in a scholarly texts in early islam btw

"A mukhannath is the one ("male") who carries in his movements, in his appearance and in his language the characteristics of a woman. There are two types; the first is the one in whom these characteristics are innate, he did not put them on by himself, and therein is no guilt, no blame and no shame, as long as he does not perform any (illicit) act or exploit it for money (prostitution etc.). The second type acts like a woman out of immoral purposes and he is the sinner and blameworthy."

If you have questions, I can try to answer them, I actually am transgender so I would try to answer to the best of my ability.

I had a drawer of men's t-shirts. My brother, well, he was always pretty obsessive with cleaning his closet out regularly. I took those shirts of his that were comfortable to sleep.

Oh come one what's the worst that could happen?!! I don't understand why people are afraid to post their pics..... to the world you're just another 2 eyes a nose and a mouth ;; you're not as important as you think you are ; )

I have my picture everywhere on this forum & I'm afraid of NOTHING (except the Mossad for that one time I posted in Israeli forum & said mean things).

Hrm.
Don't be too servile,but don't be(too much) of a jerk either. Women love to be teased,but not verbally abused.

How is it wrong to show the face God created for you? There's nothing inherently salacious about a woman's face.
You seem far too intelligent to be a 20 year old American female. I would know. But I'll take your word and assume you are who you claim to be.
It's not likely anyone is going to find out your identity if you just post your face and don't post the picture anywhere else, but people here have a habit of saving them.

Oversized shirt pajamas + hijab photo... where is it? That sounds pretty alluring
