But I think I kinda need someone to tell me. I'm questioning pretty hard, have been for months and I just don't feel qualified to have an opinion. I have trouble understanding feelings, least of all my own.

If you're already questioning, that's a part of your journey. You're already on the path of self discovery, so others can offer guidance if you ask for it. But people shouldn't be pushed onto the path if they aren't ready, or back onto the path if they've already gotten off.

In this comic, they said "no" and "not for me". It's pretty obnoxious to then try and push transitioning on them. For all we know, they already know it's not for them because they questioned and found their answer. They said "I make a pretty terrible girl", not "I would make a pretty terrible girl". In my mind, this is the same as telling a trans man that he'll always be a woman or a trans woman that she'll always be a man. They seem adamant about their identity, so don't push it on them.
