Some interesting discussions going on across a couple of threads about how we see ourselves. So my question is a simple one. Do you feel you are a guy who likes to put on a dress but is fundamentally male or do you feel that you are more female? Its a simple question requiring a simple answer, this is not meant to be a political but simply based on how you feel, not how you look, not sexuality, not GD simple....
I feel 20% male 80% female

I have concluded I am not properly trans. Simply a man who dresses up. But, it's taken me 20 years to get to this point---
U can't keep doing the same things over and over and expect to enjoy life to the max. When u try new things, even if they r out of your comfort zone, u may experience new excitement and growth that u never expected.
Challenge yourself and pursue your passions! When your life clock runs out, you'll have few or NO REGRETS!
So does that make you feel 100% male Doc?

51% to 49% the gender varies...
Probably 60% male, 40% female
Some days 60% female
I'm guessing that it's about 65% male, 35% female, but a lot of that is probably behavior taught and learned over many years.
Interesting question. I'm intrigued by how female many of you feel. Personally I view myself as 100% male. This may be because I'm a logical person and a biologist so I view it anatomically mainly. I have always had a few more socially female behavioral traits than the average male, so in terms of behavior I view myself as 75% male and 25% female. I don't really feel any more female when I cross-dress, just that I get to look more female and therefore feel more natural going with the female behaviors and exploring them than I do when dressed as a male.
Jemma, I too like to think of myself as a logical person, but many years ago I accepted that there is little or no logic in the Tworld that we inhabit. I long ago accepted my feelings and revel in them actually even though they defy logic.

I hide in plain sight...guy clothes are my disguise...
I'm probably pretty close to 50/50 at this point. Pink fog can certainly skew this to the feminine.
No. I've never felt male. Or female. Just me. I just never had a reason to question any of it until I was 50.

Hmmm.
It varies. Usually I dont think about it too much. And then sometimes it kills me not to be in high heels and being really bad...
Work mode: 100% male. Dull and boring. But does a job.
In a Pub: 95% male and noone would ever know. When Im "checking out some gal" I might be checking her out. Usually Im watching the way she moves and how her apparel runs along her curves - and how well that works. I wish I didnt do that tho - I dont like to get caught looking as I am conscious it could make some random and totally innocent girl uncomfortable.
When dressed: Well Im maxed at that point. I would run the 100 meters faster than an Olympic athlete if the prize were a no questions asked transformation.
Im a bit of a mess. And I doubt my self imposed regression is good for me. But Iv grown used to it over the years.
100% male. I've had the urge to dress in women's clothes virtually my whole life, but even when dressed I'm still a guy.
Becky,
I could go 100% dressed but it wouldn't make me 100% female.
It's hard to put a percentage on it, as you know I want to be seen and accepted as a woman, so I'm not just a guy in a dress , my female side is more dominant some days than others, so obviously it's over 50% .
Surprising hard question to answer. M-F, probably 85-15. Preferred dressing style: 40-60. Actual dressing style: 70-30
All my dreams pass before my eyes with curiosity
I'm a Gemini...And so am I! So I never feel extreme in either direction. I feel like I'm about 67% female, based on how often I feel the NEED to dress, versus "Defly a boy today" and "Could go either way"
OK, I can say with confidence that I am very high on the feminine scale even when I present as a male ( I dress and move like Peter Allen, that's for any Aussies ) so the 10% I'll give to the masculine side is quite Feminine. And I feel quite happy about that!
STOP, Well I just dance the way I feel
Stop breathing imagine none of this is real
Well I just dance the way I feel
Well I just dance the way I feel
Well I just dance the way I feel "Ou Est Le Swimming Pool"
Becky, since you asked for feelings only, I can honestly, without a doubt say, female 100%. It's a no brainer for me. This is news only to those here who don't know me. All my friends here already know this.

I couldn't put a figure on it, it varies so much; by the day, week, even by the hour sometimes.
Here today, gone tomorrow....
I can't put a figure on it. All I know was that I was born and raised male and I don't feel I belong in this body, but "trapped in the wrong body", as much as it's a cornerstone of the transgender narrative, doesn't describe me either.
I would lean toward the feminine side perhaps 65-35. In touch with myself and others around me.
I'm with Doc on this one. I'm in my late 40's and it's been a long 30+ year road to finally realize recently, I'm just me.
90/10 male mostly it is more of a sliding scale.
Sara
I'm about 70/30 female/male.
