Why I identify as an AFAB Transgirl

Hey there! So you saw the title and may be a bit confused but don't worry I will explain. First off I would like to clarify some things; I am not cisgender, intersex, transphobic, a TERF, or trying to become oppressed. I have experienced transphobia and misgendering through the form of bullying. When I was younger than I currently am I was called a cross dresser/trap and told I have a penis despite presenting feminine and being AFAB. Currently as of now I have been told I look like a guy due to having short hair, called a tranny, been mocked such as people saying "she's trans" in a deeming manner as if it is an insult (it is not). I like to wear comfortable clothes and feel quite disconnected from myself and gender so even during times I identify/identified as transmasc these types of comments can still be upsetting to me. I feel a disconnect from femineity and often perceive myself as masc/a guy. I personally feel I should have born AMAB and have been able to be a transgirl that isn't AFAB. I also relate to/feel like a transgirl due to being treated as if I was one. I have also experienced dysphoria due to perceiving myself as masculine. I am also nobinary, neurodivergent, and use neopronouns so I feel and perceive my gender differently than others may. Overall I just want to be a girl in a trans way. Anyways there you have it that is why I identify as an AFAB Transgirl. Important thing to note nobody owes you an explanation to why they identify as something for them to be valid! If you don't support AFAB Transfems, AMAB Transmascs, and or AGAB Non-Conforming people then you are an exclusionist and using the same rhetoric as TERFs which is the idea that you can't be something due to your AGAB which is not in anyway inclusive!
