@jemma I put the “want to be” option because that’s how I conceptualized it as a kid. Around the time I started going through puberty I was like, envious of the other girls my age and I would think, “fuck I wish i was a girl and my body wasn’t actively betraying me”. I hoped I would grow out of it, but obviously didn’t lol.

Later on (not until adulthood) I came to realize the reason I felt like that was because I was a girl/woman the whole time and shit was just a bit fucked up.
