Was having this conversation with some new friends earlier and was curious. When did you guys figure out your sexuality/identity or whatever? Was there a person that helped you or a particular moment or event?

the first female fictional character I remember thinking was hot was Franziska von Karma.

Wow, that is a throwback. I now want to replay through every Phoenix Wright game.

Uhhhh if anyone has resources for figuring out if you may be multigender

The gender dysphoria bible was a pretty enlightening read when I was beginning my gender crisis. Don't let the word bible influence you into taking it as gospel, no document is perfect, but it does a pretty thorough job of explaining the different feelings characteristic of trans and non-binary people.

Wow, that link is something I wish I had when I was starting out 6 or so years ago. Reading through it with my partner right now, it does a great job of succinctly but comprehensively consolidating so many things that we had to pick up in bits and pieces over time.

Agreed, but also curse that darn site for starting to make me question things a lot (in a good way though hehe)

Just finished reading through it together, what an excellent resource. I especially liked and appreciated the explanations of gender euphoria and how it relates to gender dysphoria, one of the most thoughtful and clear articulations I've seen.
