Hey, so

when I hear people talking about their experiences as a child it kinda sounds that way. Like they knew something wasn't right, or they'd never be the gender they wanted to be. And I just don't remember anything like that.

I don't either; it took some stupid book to alert me to the concept of gender being mutable. If I wasn't lucky enough to be made aware by my ex and a highschool english teacher, I'd probably be in your shoes. Looking back, as a kid I never had any thoughts about being a girl or hating my body or whatever.

cw cursed

Just a worrisome fixation on the weirdest and grossest types of gender porn, you know niko-concern

Knowing beforehand is not a requirement, and the sentiment "I have suddenly realised that being a guy bothers the fuck out of me" is entirely valid. It might be surprising to other people, but their only job is to accept you, they can't see your thought processes, which is fine, they only need to accept you for who you are. You shouldn't be required to explain yourself, you should be allowed to do that when and if it's comfortable for you meow-hug
