Something I am curious about. Can a Transman still dress like a "female" if they want? Are there Transman crossdressers? I feel like if I were to transition, I would still have my "girl" moments, but I wouldn't want to dress that way and have people think that the transition was pointless if I still dress like that at times. I hope that if you are reading this you understand what I am asking because this is kind of hard for me to put into words what I mean. Thanks.
Well, there are no written rules about it if that's what you mean. However, it would be better if you were to see a gender therapist and get diagnosed first and discuss your concerns about your "girl" moments.
I, personally, discuss my female past with an ease most FTMs find unnerving as tell me so, but I am not like most FTM, obviously.
The only problem that I see is one of passing. If you were to start to look manlier, it would be more difficult for you to pass as female, leading to possible heckling.
I am not certain whether you would still want to have your girl moments as you get further into your transition since testosterone has a tendency to also change your brain, logically so.
Whether as before T you were able to think in abstract ways (in a matter of speaking) after many years of T, you'll understand why women always complain about men being myopic, in a sense. They think linearly, you know: a begets b, begets c, begets d, etc. because you will be doing it, as well.
As for what others think, do not even pay any mind, people always have something to say, designed to put you down, if given the chance.
Just a thought,

I understand about the girl moments. I think you should just do what makes you feel comfortable. crossdressing wont make you less of a man, having girl moments and accepting and embracing them just make you a stronger person that is true to themselves.
