LGBT: If I'm not transitioning, do I introduce myself as a boy or as a girl?

[Alex]

I'm entering a new school. If I don't plan on introducing until I move out in a few more years; I plan on moving out rather quickly after I turn eighteen, once college begins again. Though I do plan on trying to pass as a boy, but binding and therapy is out of the question until I move out.

When it comes to people, I'm debating on what to do.

I want to be referred to by my preferred name; it can be gender neutral, but I doubt most people would think of it as a girls name. I look like a boy though, and my clothing style is gender neutral slash masculine. It seems wrong, and not a good idea, to introduce myself as a boy even if I'm trying to pass as a boy.

I was thinking of asking my friends, when I feel close enough to them (if ever), to refer to me as my preferred name. Adults and my parents would out me with their feminine gender pronouns, and my feminine sounding name.

Don't listen to them.
Do what you're comfortable with.

Us homos are the shit, they're just jealous that we have the balls to be ourselves.
