I'm guessing this is your first time facing possible homelessness? May I ask what part of the world?

This may get me banned but I don’t care. I have been. there. for real. I’m very new to this sub and over a short period of time this is like the fifth posts I’ve seen like this.
OP I don’t mean to offend you and I genuinely, personally wish you luck. You’re so young and things are impossibly hard for you right now. You’ll get there no matter if you ignore what I’m about to say or think about it sometime down the road. But this is actually important.
Gender dysmorphia is a heart breaking medical condition. It’s been recognized by doctors for over 50 years. Doctors recognize the symptoms around the age of 8. Gender dysmorphia occurs at about 1 for every 300,000 people.
A new survey that came out a few weeks ago has people who identified as transgender at 1.5% of the population. That’s about 1 out of 75. In New York State it���s 1 out of 30 for children aged 12-17.
What changed? I’ll tell you.
There was a massive push over the last decade to normalize transgenderism. It’s cultural now, not medical. Cartoons for children started having transgender characters. It became a cool thing to be transgender and above all we were told, it’s normal.
It’s not normal. And very, very few people you meet think it’s normal. It’s actually quite abnormal. 1 out of 300,000 is exceedingly rare.
When I was growing up the ‘outcasts’ were into metal and wearing black nail polish. Fast forward twenty years and they’re now cutting their penises off. That’s the situation you were born into and grew up around.
Unless you were displaying pretty specific behavior as a child that would have been recognized by your pediatrician as gender dysmorphia before the age of ten or eleven I have some pretty shocking news. You’re not transgender. You’re just a different type of person, and that’s ok.
Be yourself always. But if you went through male puberty you’re gonna wanna be really, really sure of your decision if you ask people to call you Susan. And life will be much harder than if you stuck it out as Sam.

Here's some solid advice: Do not lie, and do not assume lying will get you out of this situation.
Lying out of convenience is about the worst thing anyone can do, because it creates a delusional world view, which will make someone more likely to make bad decisions. The consequence of our personal decisions will always haunt our lives, so make good decisions based on common sense, truth and compassion.
Ontop of that, it's a guinie pig, OR A DOG. It does not matter, in the long run. You need to realize that living is the ability to make decisions based on surviving: I would eat the guinie pig, and live with that fact. Because I am going to be homeless, no one will feed me, and I was hungry.
As for jobs: because technocrats ruin everything, getting a job is harder than it has to be, but you lying and eroding the trust of anyone who would give you a chance and hire you: is about the worst thing you can do right now.
I would 1.) not lie. Go find a bike to borrow for a while. 2.) go find the nearest fast food place to where you currently live 3.) beg the manager for a job, and work it like your life depends on it: do not lie, do not scream discrimination: you are there to provide a service, not demand respect: you earn respect, as everyone is owed basic decency: which means you need to be trustworthy: so do not tell lies. 4.) you get a paycheck a month out, and you can couch surf in the mean time. 5.) find a house with a bunch of house mates, get a room mate, etc. You might get a closet to sleep in, but that's all you can afford.. and your share of the utilities is a fraction of the total! 6.) then you arent homeless.
You'd probably die, being homeless. Not because of how you identify and discrimination, but because a.) it's the middle of winter... b.) you have no survival skills c.) you are young and have no adult skills d.) the economy sucks right now.
