dysphoria in me

i have a very difficult time because i hate male. this unfortunately is just not what resides as a physical part of me and what it does to my brain, but i cringe when i see a man with a beard - when i see a man being masculine however that manifests. suit and tie, jogging clothing, etc. i hate what i perceive as male talk - even on this site. talking about parts or whatever. it just troubles me so much. i don’t like isolating myself this way, but it always happens. i don’t know if it is fear of male or fear of man - men. but i do believe i am and have been trying to seek refuge in women/woman, femininity, as if that is safety. i’m not sure why. maybe i see girls and women as comrades in the fight against perpetrators/oppressors. i think this is the origin of the war that exists in me. i’m so weary - so tired. so disrupted. i wish i could find peace but i think my terror not only terrorizes me but those i communicate with. i think it is natural for people to back away. that leaves me with not much help finding a way out of this quicksand.

what i’ve been doing is attacking the male in me all my life. for this reason i believe i’ve always wanted to be eunuch. but maybe i see femininity as some kind of safety once i accomplish my eunuch goal - if i ever accomplish my eunuch goal.

i wonder if this is typical, or different or what. i wonder if anyone shares any of this with me. to me it is a constant nightmare and torture that is my life and i apparently push people away without even wanting to and i doubt there is a way to undo that, but maybe there is. i just think people think i’m not being sincere. like people think i can’t really be the way i describe. it seems to fit into the category of “that is not how it works”. i wish someone would give me a clue since i must be clueless.

We are similar. But I did not wish it only for my own body. I treated other men kindly... I could not imagine that I will become the mature man with the corresponding attributes... I did not wish to be reconciled with it... Therefore I became the full eunuch at my age 19.5 years... And itself further did not test any gender dysphoria.

The truth unlike you, I never wished to become for me similar to the woman. I was quite happy to look like a beardless young man :).

i so wish i did that at 19 or even 29. but i lived pretending for most of my life. i’m 69 now! its terrible. i still feel there is good safety in femininity and i have to reconcile that with being a husband and father. i believe that once a eunuch, i will want to more further toward femininity but i’m not sure now because i also feel that being eunuch is enough. i have a glimmer of hope. i may qualify for the surgery soon. i’m hoping. and i hope my family will be accepting. but i do think i’d have been very happy being a beardless young man.

another aspect of my dysphoria is strange and a trans (m to f) friend of mine said that she thinks that it is a typical trans woman attitude. so, maybe even before any surgery or hormones i already do fit into the role. and the aspect i’m talking about is that i feel very troubled by “male talk”. i’ve even encountered it here and that was quite unexpected. its things like talking about size… and things you’d hear in the locker room. and then i also get really put off by beards. and they’re so popular now. i just feel assaulted each time i see a man with a beard. there is no difference in sexuality apparently. if a person is born male and is male or once was, they still seem to keep the qualities that cause great disturbance in me.

i’m wondering if that will fade once (if ever) i go on female hormones. i’m not happy about this. i’ve envisioned myself as a heterosexual female and this problem now does not help me except to want to run and hide.
