I am currently on vacation and going to the beach sucks because I see these girls my age and think “Holy shit, I want to look like that.” But then I get heavy impostor syndrome. Maybe this is just me being attracted and wanting to be trans, so my brain makes it think it’s envious when it’s just attracted? So, how do you tell envy from attraction?
That’s totally valid, but I want to point out to people who may be confused that how strongly one feels about gender is a spectrum! I personally don’t really care how I look anymore and I never had strong feelings about masc/femme presenting body. For someone like @Stoneblackdog@beehaw.org, they may have difficulty separating envy from attraction because they don’t feel strongly about how they currently look, or how they look in general. When I see an aesthetic I like, I almost always am simultaneously attracted to it on multiple dimensions and want to embody it too! I’d love to be able to shapeshift, because then my body could more easily fit how I feel that day, or that I could just explore all the world has to offer.
If I could shapeshift, I’d be too hot for this universe, hence why I can’t shapeshift, and no one can prove otherwise 😤
Also, you put it perfectly! Significantly more coherent than what I was trying to say, but that’s what I get for trying to comment something that in-depth whilst on my 15 minute break lmao
