MTF - But I'm fine with being 'male'?

I have a bit of a odd mindset that I feel doesn't commonly sync with most trans people and I'm curious if others experience this. I identify as a trans woman, and I'm 'out' in about half of my life (the people that matter - not work as I'd be fired) and living as myself has drastically reduced my depression. My weirdness is that I really don't have an issue with being 'male', but I'd rather be seen as a woman and female to strangers. I'd rather be a woman and male to people I'm close to. I'm ok with lying to strangers. I owe them nothing and the truth can harm me - and has.

I have a fairly feminine shape, so fit into woman's small with no issues. I always had to buy women's gloves. Men's clothes never fit. My transition - outside of facial issues, has been pretty easy. I'm not sure if maybe this just makes me comfortable with my maleness - since it doesn't really make me seem like less of a woman - and even my body hair, shoulders, etc - really hasn't been an issue. I get that with HRT, my sex kind of slides into the middle territory - along with my already female-ish shape and features, but im still fine with 'male' and it makes communication about things easier, imo.

Does anyone else not really have an issue with your assigned sex, or do i just exist under some kind of hormonal-imbalance-advantage that made my sex not totally screw up my transition?
