Why does the word girl make me feel weird?
Okay so I’m a 15 y/o teen, born female into an lgbtqia+ phobic family.
I currently don’t know how I identify I feel like a girl maybe but this is what feels weird. I got a really sweet shirt that says ‘this girl runs on tea and musicals’ it’s also pink. And the way it says girl on it makes me feel kind of off and I used to like pink a lot but now it feels eh or yuck. I’m currently wearing it and it makes me feel weird and a bit off? I have a friend who is non-binary and they shared with me a bit about their experiences and it feels kind of similar. Like wondering why gender is such a big deal to everyone and a desire to not wear girl’s clothes too much occasionally I do enjoy some “girly” things.
Please help
I’m in full on shut down mode about this I’ve spent my whole day thinking about this and distracting myself with reading. I’m worried I might not be who I always thought I was but it’s also exciting to maybe find a better way to be me

This is your time (age or period) for exploration and discovery. It may take a few years yet for you to sort out what is most appropriate (natural) for you, but, until then, you are likely to feel ungrounded or like you're floating among possibilities. Don't let that stop you from doing what feels right and best for you at any given time. When things tend to stabilize and you've found your niche, wherever and whatever it might be, you'll be the first to know. Until then, worry not and, to the extent possible, enjoy the journey.

Call the gay center and talk to the counselor. You might be referred to a therapist to help you deal with you confusion.

You don't like that shirt. It doesn't mean anything your over thinking it. Feeling weird about a shirt or not liking a certain color doesn't mean you are a different gender. That's one small part of what makes up gender.
At that age those feeling are normal. Just continue to do your thing and try not to over think it.
