you don’t have to label your gender if you don’t want to! but if you do, there are nonbinary genders that are masc aligned, like demiboy/man, libra masculine, or even just being a nonbinary man. non-binary is just a large umbrella term to describe a whole bunch of folks who fall outside of the binary. play around with labels and/or with pronouns. it might take a while to find what you feel most comfortable with, but you’ll get there with time. <3

I’m afab and felt/feel the equivalent way. I just went as unlabeled for a few years since that felt the most right. I gradually came to think of myself as female/gender-fluid— I explain to my friends that this means my gender has some fluidity to it, but I am always most comfortable with she/her pronouns. I think society will generally only ever see me as a woman, and I personally don’t care enough to try to package the complexity of my gender into 1 easily digestible public label

I guess my point here is that like #1 said, you can just go as unlabeled in public or even only in private to start out with! Whatever comes naturally and is most comfortable for you. You can always sit down with your friends and tell them what you said here and not put a label on it at all :) hopefully this helps in some way
