New school
So I am going to highschool on monday (not a direct translation, but the same age group) and am questioning what I want to do.
Now for background, I'm 90% sure I'm a trans dude, but I haven't come out to anyone. Ive got a binder, I'm sure I could pull of the testosterone deficiency for my voice. And I've got a choice.
I was known as a cis girl in my previous school, but It didn't feel right. I'm afraid that if I show up as a girl, then that's all they'll ever see me as, but if I show up as a dude... What if I'm wrong? Ive got 1 chance for first impressions. I wanna make it count.
No chance to try the label and see how it fits
No chance to change my mind.
I think I want to be known as a dude but honestly I'm not effing sure.
(Maybe I could say Imma dude at school, but stay looking like a irl at home?)

Have you thought about going with a genderqueer/androgynous look? That way you can get more masculine or more feminine as time goes on and no one will really notice. Pick a gender neutral name? Idk ¯\_༼ᴼل͜ᴼ༽_/¯
I naturally look very masculine, and have a very masculine style but a feminine voice, Wich inevitably leads to the question "are you a boy or a girl" they only take those 2 answers, and if I say nothing, they assume I'm a girl
