Could it be fear based like it was for me at the very beginning?
when I first started dressing as myself I was very timid and unsure of myself, and if ever there was a disagreement in the house about something I`d curse the fact I was wearing womens clothes because I felt very disempowered by it, I felt I no longer commanded the same authority and respect I did when dressed as a boy, this gave me Many serious WTF moments!
the fact is I was (like others here are) dealing with internal transphobia and ingrained gender stereotypes that we`ve been brainwashed with from a very early age.
Living full time now I can tell you that it Does go away, and you`ll feel even More empowered dressed as yourself than you every (falsely) did in Boy clothes! it`s just a case of practice and undoing the damage and limiting beleifs that society has thrust upon us.
I feel this is very likely the case with you, but again, i could be totally wrong! xx
