I’m not sure whether this is the right place for this question, but… How do you know?

Like, I would 100% be a woman if I could choose. I also always play a female character in games. When I see a girl I feel a strong sexual attraction, but I also feel jealous of her.

But, I’m honestly not sure if I am not cisgendered. I feel like I missed the boat. I also don’t know if I am sure enough. Is this impostor syndrome? How do I know it’s not just sexual attraction? Or me being unhappy with the role men have in this world? Or me being depressed otherwise? It all seems like a big tangled mess.

Thanks a lot for all the comments. I made an appointment with my GP next week and hope that he can refer me to a therapist. All the best to you all <3

    Wasn’t there a strenght penalty in D&D or something? Totally worth it though.

      I don’t recall that being a thing in the versions I played (2e and 3e).

      The Fallout games typically have -1str +1end for women. Which, given it’s a point buy system, is essentially a non-difference.

      I feel like there were other crpgs in the '90s that similarly did strength for charisma (yikes) but I can’t think of any specific examples off the top of my head.
