when i was around 7 or 8, i was convinced i was actually born a boy and my family was lying to me. i wanted short hair too. i didn’t like to wear dresses or stereotypically girly stuff and i wanted to wear men’s clothes. i wanted to hang out with the other boys and it always seemed like the “boy world” was more my thing at that age than the girl world i was expected to enter.

i've grown out of the phase, but i thought all girls cared about was makeup and hated sports and videogames. plus, girls also tended to bully me more for being autistic whereas boys didn't judge me as much so long as i could play catch with a football.
