Hey, I’m 17 and lately I’ve been feeling kind of confused about my gender. I’ve always been seen as a guy, but sometimes that just doesn’t feel quite right. I’m not sure if I’m just overthinking or if there’s more to it. How do people actually figure out stuff like this? Is there a way to get some clarity without just guessing?

Hey Alex, I totally get where you’re coming from. I went through a similar phase a few years back. One thing that helped me a lot was this website called https://spectrum-id.com/. They have tests made by professionals that can help you explore how you feel about your gender in a thoughtful way.

They have a test specifically on gender identity, and also tests on gender roles, gender dysphoria, and transgender experiences. What I liked about it is that it doesn’t force you into any category; it just helps you put some words to what you’re feeling.

Plus, the site has a bunch of clear and easy-to-read articles that explain all sorts of gender-related topics. It’s a really helpful resource, especially for teenagers trying to make sense of everything without pressure or judgment.

Thanks, Binjamin! That sounds exactly like what I need right now. I’ll definitely check out the site and see what those tests say. Really appreciate you taking the time to help.
