All of us on the CD/TG boat have an identification with the opposite gender, to greater or lesser extent. Some people add to the existing personality, while others treat the secondary gender as a totally different person. How do you feel more comfortable when addressing yourself?

1. "She" [SIZE="1"](in the case of MtF)[/SIZE]. You buy "her" gifts, you find time to be "her", you dream about fulfilling "her" dreams. She's someone else that you become eventually (or frequently).
2. "Me". It's all a unit, even though in distinct presentations and scenarios. There is a transformation, but you'll not become "her"; it's still the same (not quite the same).
3. "Us". Umm... I hope you're seeing a shrink? [SIZE="1"](even though I find hysterically funny people who talk about themselves as a collective entity lmao)[/SIZE]


Personally I've found I feel much more comfortable using "me". There was a time when it was easier — or even kinkier — to say "She likes to wear heels", but recently it just started to sound... so awkward. I like to wear heels, and present myself as a woman. (Now if I could use only one name...) I found that "she" was doing me harm, while "I" am loving to have a personality which can be very fluid in its presentation. When I stopped trying to accomodate two persons in one body things got so much relaxed... even though that brought a new set of (tough) objectives and challenges. (I'm not trying to imply that there's a way better than the other — I believe there isn't one — just sharing my particular snapshot to get the thread started ^ ^ [SIZE="1"]or ruining it with too much metaphysics[/SIZE])

So how about you? I'd like to know how integrated are the two genders in your personality. "I'm two" or "I'm a mix"? And why? (Surely it's possible to be/use both; in this case tell the one you feel better with.) Everybody's invited to answer (and I'd love to hear from the FtM boys too).

Thanks a lot ^ ^
