Yo, I gotchu on the crazy gender thing.
Gender is a big ball of confusing and I'll be the first to admit that. Growing up, I would play football with my brothers in miniskirts and wrestle in summer dresses but then turn right around and have tea parties in baggy shorts with army men and barbies. I had no idea what was 'girl stuff' or 'boy stuff' further than girls wore makeup and skirts and boys didn't until I got into school.
Gender is so weird and I never felt comfortable in my own skin, much like you probably do. Hell, as a genderfluid individual sometimes I don't feel like anything! Sometimes I'm like yo I feel like a dress and some boxers but other times I don't feel like anything. I generally feel uncomfortable being addressed with pronouns clearly referencing my biological sex especially on my boy days.
The point of this is that there's not just two genders. There's not only male and female at all. It's a massive spectrum where you can be one, the other, both or neither or even a mix of any of them.
That being said, it's something I learned through the internet. Like you, I grew up in an area with no queer kids and it was so friggin difficult. Tumblr taught me a lot but it's also super poisonous so I'd watch out on that one. If you find terms there, I recommend googling them and doing some research. Joining this guild was DEFINITELY a step in the right direction for your own support.
It's a super tough situation feeling lonely and isolated, not understanding any of it. Growing up is hard enough but then you add gender and sex and it just turns into an invariatable hell. So forums like these are super good ideas and hey, if you ever need somebody who gets it, who fought through high school tooth and nail talk to me.
I swear to you, it gets better. You go off to college and you find people like you and your support group grows. It gets so much better. You just have to hang in there for now.
