Nonbinary rambly self doubt stuff. Input appreciated

Now, I wouldn't mind a woman's body, but I'm pretty sure 'woman' isn't my gender. It seems as alien to me as 'man' does

I feel that. I have a body sex, and I had sex dysphoria, but I don't have any desire to be man or woman, but like me you might not have a choice depending on how well HRT works for you. But I don't want an androgynous body either, I want a female body, preferably one that can reproduce someday. But you might wake up someday after having been on HRT for years and regardless of what you're wearing you're going to be seen as female bodied by this world.

What helps me is to separate out sex from gender role, and then to separate out sex dysphoria from gender (role) dysphoria. It might seem like a lesson in nuking semantics, but it's important to me. Sex dysphoria is the body dysphorias to me now. And now I see gender (role) dysphoria as the social dysphorias of social roles. I see myself as having a sex identity, but not a gender identity. Thus genderqueer instead of transgender. I think most binary trans people have all of this and separating it out this far is pointless to them, but not so for me, and they of course can speak for themselves.

You know many places do genderqueer HRT now right? If what you wanted was stay closer to a male body like David's younger body they could prescribe you testosterone blockers, but put you on a smaller dose that doesn't outright decimate your T levels. Both the clinics I've ever been to do GQ HRT.

I'm not sure, the possibility has floated in my head that I'm MtF transsexual,

I'm medically and legally transsexual MTF. There's no denying that. However I'm genderqueer not transgender. GQ people sometimes transition their bodies to varying degrees to.
