Androgynous femme guy: gay or trans or mixed-up?

Discussion in 'New to NoFap' started by Deleted Account, Aug 6, 2019.

  1. Hi NoFap.
    I am 19 year old person (assigned as "male" at birth) that is seriously confused about my sexuality and gender, and my search for healthy answers led me to porn sites that now occupy many many hours of my day.
    I day-to-day present as female, which is super easy for me as I am tiny and skinny and feminine anyway.
    I have done so since I was about 15.
    I only date men.
    I am not sure if I am scared of girls or I am not attracted to them, but I don't date them.

    My life is being wasted in the search for answers --- not in search of healthy answers, but rather getting sucked into porn at 15/16 years old. Porn will confirm ANYTHING you want to confirm and that is why I am here. I need my own brain back.

    I need to break porn addiction and genuinely seek the truth about me.
    I hope to break my porn addiction here.
    I start today. No more porn!!

  2. Hi Shinsei,

    congratulations on your decision to quit porn. That for sure is a wise starting point as your quest for answers is taking you deeper. Stop all porn and give yourself some time, relax and instead of tightening up trying to figure things out try to let it come to you, the answers. What difference does it make what label you give yourself?
    Get in touch with your feelings, thoughts and let them tell you.
    Trans? Gay? Mixed up? Do not make things more complicated. I am gay and of course I could believe this is because I am afraid of women or because my mother was this or that. No. I am part of nature and that is all right.
    So, maybe you feel trans one day, then gay the next ... Do you suffer because you need to know? Or cause you do not want to be this or that?

  3. I agree!! It makes no difference. I am me :)

    I keep worrying about labels, but you are right. It just complicates things.

    Yay!!!!

    I think this is very true. I like men much more than women ....in a way of attraction, so in that way maybe I am gay. I like feminine clothes and makeup and being seen as a woman, and having people see me as a woman, I like that. So in that way maybe I am trans.

    Your point is well taken. Stop the labels. Sort my porn addiction out FIRST.

    Thank you, you are so nice to write this advice!!!
     
  4. Well THAT was quick. So much for intent!!!
    Failed on first night :( I am devastated. I thought I could go for at least a few days!!!!

    A guy I dated called and was teasing me and flirting. He wanted to go out but I said no (he is very aggressive and big and can be scary if he doesn't get what he wants.) We talked but I was able to convince him I could not see him. He put ideas in my head tho.
    After off the phone I kept thinking of him (he is very Alpha and very fit, and even scary it is alluring) and I ended up playing w myself. I have no self discipline!!!
    I need to get more than just porn under control. I have a very active fantasy brain and I am very attracted to older men that are Sugar-Daddy types. I was his sugar baby for a while and he spoiled me nicely. This guy triggered a bunch of fantasy that I could not control.

    I deleted my account on my 3 porn-sites tonight. I am so angry at myself. I am so very weak to suggestions.

  5. You are not the only weak one @Shinsei ... believe me. How many times did I quit, one more time, last time, a farewell party here and there, one more big bang then I‘m done for good. And if some guy you described came along. I‘d be veeery tempted, still. My luck is I am older ... ;) Not on top of the charts anymore.
    Porn, headporn/fantasizing, mental edging ... watch it. Try not to indulge in it.

    Well done you deleted your accounts. That‘s a huge step. Now be mad at yourself but not for too long then get up and work on some battle strategy plan.
    Train your discipline and think about Why you want to quit. Never forget your cause; it‘s your strongest weapon in this fight. Love yourself for who you are.

  8. At least I am not alone on this quest, thank you for the encouragement!
    OMG thank you so much --- these are very powerful affirmations.
    "I am who I am, and that is good enough."
    I feel so much guilt over the direction my life has taken in the past year. What were once childhood fantasies have manifest as a very strong reality. It has all come on so quickly. I need to take this one step at a time :)

    The first part is certainly the hardest. You will get knocked down a lot. Just keep picking yourself back up. Analyze and learn from every mistake and keep trying. Make sure to journal as much of your experience on here. It will help you rewire your perspective towards porn and allow others to join the conversation. This will benefit you and others.

    It all starts with the porn addiction. You're right, it has to go in order to find real answers for yourself. There is simply no way to live a happy and fulfilling life if your reward system is compromised. Keep journaling, posting, and conversing on here and seek to rewire your brain. Ultimately, you will perceive porn for what it is. In my opinion, it is worse than crack or heroin. At some point you will know this on a deep level and won't even look. It will disgust you. It's like food. If a certain food you were addicted to all of a sudden tasted so bad it made you want to vomit, you wouldn't eat it anymore. Like with food poisoning. Try and rewire your brain to get to that point with porn.
     
  14. Brilliant insights!!!! AGREE
