    I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that tween/teenage me would have been ‘transed’. I totally rejected anything feminine, was routinely mistaken for a boy child, and if the option to be a boy was available I would have jumped at it. I think this is why I’m so invested in this.

        Because now, at 38, I’m a proud feminist, a mother of three, still gender non conforming. But a WOMAN. The thought that teenage me would have chosen puberty blockers and surgery is horrifying. I know I would have done.

        I mean, ffs, I have a Mitsubishi symbol tattooed on my arm because when I was 18 my life was all about the pills. You think I wouldn’t have sterilised myself because I thought it would make me happy? Of course I would have.

        As a teenage girl who didn’t ‘fit in’, I would have grabbed the chance to identify out of girlhood with both hands. Instead I muddled through and grew into an adult woman. I pick up and put down femininity as and when, but I’m no more or less a woman for it.

        i agree. I had a v v short moment of thinking I was in the wrong body following an episode of drug taking/generally having a shit time. I probably never would have done it, but I think there are lots of teenage girls who aren't prepared for periods/becoming women who now would

        As a child I thought I was born in the wrong body, I wished I had been born a boy for years. But I was never unhappy with my body, no dysphoria. I liked "boy" or gender neutral things and hated "girl" things. I wanted to be treated as an equal by the boys when we played.

        I was at an age I would have believed anything adults told me. They seemed to know everything. If I had been told its possible to be born in the wrong body, and that if I felt like I was it must be so, I would have believed them. It would have completely stunted my development.

        Me too! Me too! Me too! So hated being female that suicide seemed the only option. I begged for hysterectomy at 19. Begged. Pleaded. Doctor of course refused. Thank god this was in the ‘70s & not now.

        If only we could harness all this energy, and these resources, to changing social attitudes about what people in sexed bodies can be and do. So much of "trans" is about wanting /other people/ to perceive them differently. Change the mirror, not the body.

        Yes! And learn to sit in discomfort. Fleeing pain, discomfort, or suffering isn’t only impossible, it’s unhealthy & creates fragile yet angry people who need constant affirmation & agreement instead of truth.
