There’s so much stuff that would feel weird and stereotype-y to see someone else do and think, “they must be trans!” but when I think back on myself doing them, my only thought is, “oh, so that’s what that was about.”

    I knew I was upfront really early (having DID makes it hard to ignore these things or you’ll wake up with it carved into your arm), but my trans hating mom STILL has so many pics of kid me (like 3-4) constantly crossdressing scattered all over her bedroom. Apparently I wanted to be a girl teenage mutant ninja turtle lol

    Earliest I remember of me acting atypically was me constantly crushing on anime boys., especially the gundam wing guys omg especially Trowa. Like I’d endlessly talk about it and having elaborate weddings (weddings are stupid, child me was stupid). I was also constantly messing around with other dudes and getting caught

    I did the same when I was emo in middle and high school but all the boys then were like “that smart fox is just kissing boys and being bi to get the girls!” Like hanging around emo girls all the time did get me the girls but like if they thought it was so effective they should’ve kissed me too
