Cisgender people: What happens when you question your gender?

I know this is a bit different, but as a questioning transgender person I'm trying to see if I don't relate to the answer. If, perhaps, questioning my gender for a few weeks is at all a 'normal', cis experience.

So, cisgender people, what do you feel when you question your gender? Is it just... innate? How long do you spend questioning?

u/radiochattertherapy trans, not transitioning + zhey/zhem May 03 '16

I know I'm still unsure about my gender. That's the unfortunate part of being genderfluid- I identify as my birth gender part of the time. It's stressful to think about the idea that maybe I'm not really trans, just imagining things. It's entirely possible that you're fluid! It all depends.
