I'm working on a website that compiles a bunch of trans resources into one place.

I made an "Am I trans?" page which has a link to the article on the gender dysphoria bible of the same name.

I also remember some other websites, but I can't find them. I think they were called something along the lines of Am I a girl? and there were other variants of it for transmascs and nonbinary people. I think I remember seeing the link on the transfem community, but I'd have to scroll through months of comments to find it. I thought I would check here first in case anyone has the link saved so I don't have to sift through all those comments.

Edit: I just found it! It's called "Turn me into a girl" and not "Am I a girl?". Here's a link to it: https://turn-me-into-a-girl.com/

Maybe not what you’re looking to include on your website, but the Trans Journalists Association Stylebook is great tool to improve news coverage of trans people; and generally very informative. https://styleguide.transjournalists.org

It seems that's more for cis people writing about trans people, but yeah I could put it on the website

Describe what these sites look like visually. That'll help narrow it down.

I recommend looking in the sidebar of this and the transfem community. There's a good amount of resources listed.

Also, thetrevorproject.org

I already have the ones from this community on the website. I just checked the transfem sidebar and it wasn't there. I remember the am I a girl site using a bunch of pinkish-red. I also remember they had an "I'm a girl!" button and it would take you to a fake loading screen that took a really long time to "load" and when it did it had a message I think saying something along the lines of "Congrats! You're a really pretty girl" or something like that.

Edit: I literally just found it on my own. It's called "Turn me into a girl" not "am I girl?" which is why I couldn't find it earlier. Remembering that button actually helped me find it.

Gotcha. I haven't come across that site before. Wish you the best of luck in finding it.

Also, it's great that you're making the site. I'm sure it's gonna help many people.

You asking me to describe the website just helped me find it. I remembered the button and put that in my search and it came up as the first result.

The website is actually called "Turn me into a girl" and not "Am I a girl?", which is why I couldn't find it earlier.

Glad you found it. I tried out the "Turn me into a boy" site and it made me smile. Whoever came up with the concept of the button was a genius. I needed something like this when I was younger.

That's the one I already have. I was looking for a different website.
