I felt exactly the same as you do now before I started going to therapy. I'm more comfortable with my gender now.
And remember, just because you don't fit society's stereotype of what a "girl" should be doesn't make you any less of a human being.
Just do what makes you comfortable. [ maxgrey's advice column | Ask maxgrey A Question ]

You need to think about his a while first, before you do anything. Think about what it means to be a girl or a guy, why you want to be a guy, whether you're willing to live like a guy.
If you've already thought about this, or once you spend a month or two thinking on it, I would try to get in to talk to a counselor.
Gender issues are complicated, and you might actually be a transgendered person. If you are, you need psychological help to help you decide whether to transition, how far to transition, and help you get through whatever you decide. You might also want to talk to your parents about this, but it may be easier to talk to a guidance counselor first. [ antsywolansky's advice column | Ask antsywolansky A Question ]
