I am noticing that I am taking a liking to men's t-shirts because they fit my chest, waist, hips and arms better than women's. I still feel female inside and out no matter what I wear. I have been compared to a man physically:

Those hoodies are men's hoodies by the way.

I'm so stressed out! Does that mean I am not cisfemale after all?

Just because you wear a men's hoodie.....doesn't mean you're any less of a woman.

And that's the truth!

I believe in comfort over style, anyway.

It's probably true that men's clothes, in general, are more comfortable than woman's clothes.

Pieces of cloth don't really have anything to do with sex.

I wear men's or unisex shirts and hoodies all the time. They fit me much better too. I think the styles are cooler too, in my opinion. I've even been known to borrow shirts and sweatshirts from my dad.

Also, cute pictures! You are beautiful :)

Only you can decide if you are or are not cis. Your identity belongs to you and you alone. If you chose to use a label that label is for you to understand yourself and to share who you are with others.

What you chose to wear may be labeled as "mens clothes" at the store... but if you identify as a cis-female, and the clothes belong to you... then really they're women's clothes at that point because a woman owns them.

Just some thoughts :) I hope it helps
