Transgender = a person who identifies as a different gender to what they were assigned at birth. This includes non binary people, as well as agender, gender non conforming, and so on.

You wanting to exclude yourself from the trans community for whatever reasons (almost certainly a combination of internalised and/or regular old transphobia) doesn't change that.

But hey, don't take my word for it, you could have easily found that out for yourself if you weren't so intent on being "not like other trans people":
