Hey don’t worry about being a tomboy I’m 19 years old and I also have low self esteem I know it’s hard haha my own grandmother told me that the clothes I wore made me look asexual. Yeah it made me cry and my friend asked me if I was lesbian and that if I liked girls. I think the reason we are tomboys is because in this male dominated world we want to be noticed and feel equal but we aren’t unfortunately it’s stupid how society has classified women even at my age I hate high heels, dresses and makeup and it’s all about taking your time I’m glad I read your story you made me feel better because you’re a late bloomer like me I thought I was the only one out there. You don’t need to feel pressured embrace being yourself I hope this helps you.

i changed schools in the miidle of year,it sucked. i was at the same school since kindgarden through 7 th grade. the people there were nice and never made fun of me. when i moved it all changed. thats when the bullying started. i also found friends later that then stood up for me.

You’re daughter sounds like so much fun. And I copmpletely understand how you feel I have been asked about my gender ever since I was seven. And whenever i go to gamestop, comic stores, and bookstores i get funny looks for being in an area mostly occupied by guys. The only downside is that now that I’m teen there’s all this peer pressure to wear skirts and act ‘girly’. My mom avoids changing me but its always an eternityof verbal warfare when she buys me clothes that are are feminine.

I have the same story and it started in second gradewhen a pair of second grade boys messed with me about acting like a boy. They eventually stopped when my friends and I stood up for me. But at that point I had started isolating myself. It started again in middle school when there was a no uniform day and two girls in my class called me a lesbian and a transgender. For the rest of that month when I sat near them i had to deal with teasing and names. By the time my subsitute teaxher noticed I had already stopped participating in any of my classes and my grades had severly dropped. I’m still shy by nature but I’ve been seperated from them and have found friends in both genders at my school.

Hi Emily im tina, im also a tomboy and i mean a big tomboy. Evryone thinks im a guy a lot, well not as much anymore, and i can relate to what you said. Im starting to feel singled out a bi too by my guy friends, they talk about stuff that i just cant relate to, cause im a girl. Ive been a tomboy for as long as i could remember, im the only real tomboy at my school and lately ive been thinking im wierd for it. I always think when im at award assemblys that people are thinking to themselves poor kid h has a girls name. its hell not knowing anyone personally that can relate to the pain of everyone thinking im wierd and a lesbian(which im not) for dressing like a guy. Hangin out with girly girls is soo anoyying cause they always look at me like im a psycho for talking about how fun football is. Everyone looks at me like im crazy just cause how i dress. Youre not alone, ive wanted to end it before too for being known as so wierd contact me at shadowbanditcooper10@gmail.com please do i wanna talk to another tomboy

Im 12 years old and have always been asked if im a boy or a girl. I used to hate being a girl, but now im used to it and dont mind it as much. Ive never met another tomboy thats as much of a tomboy as me and its hell. i hang out with guys all the time, id rather hang out with them and talk about video games than hang out with a girl and awkwardly try to start up a conversation while shes talking about one direction which i hate, but im starting to get a bit pissed off about all the guy jokes ive been told lately. theres nothing wrong with being a tomboy, but im startin to really hate all the jokes i get everyday about being a tomboy. I really liked reading this because i know now that im not the only one whos always mistaken for a guy

Hey. My name is Julie and I’m a tomboy too. I’m 16 too!! I know exactly what you feel like. I’m socially awkward and strange and I love martial arts and parkour and video games. If you want, we could be friends and message and stuff >.< I know EXACTLY what you feel like. I found a great group of (guy) friends and I have some female friends too, but it took a while to fit in and become one of them. The only reason they started accepted me was when i stopped trying to be something I was not (I tried to dress like a girl for a year and it was HORRIBLE!) I'm fine with who I am and hell, I've even had a few boyfriends. So it will get better If you ever wanna talk to someone or just be friends feel free to send me a message or something.
