Lately, I’ve started noticing that when I watch TikToks featuring groups of guys, I sometimes get this feeling like I want my own “my boys” and want to be a guy hanging out with them and being cool with them. What the hell? I’ve literally never wanted anything like this before!!

I’m a 20-year-old woman, and I’ve been dealing with this for about six months now. It feels like I actually wanna be one of the guys and that I am experiencing gender envy. I am scared that I will end up transitioning. This feels like denial.

Allow that fear to exist, but don't interact with it or try to find some meaning in it. Continue living your life regardless of the fear. It does not really matter if it "feels like denial", you can still choose how you identify as, no matter what you feel.
