i was listening to songs and watching shows, and there seems to be an eternal nostalgia or obsession with your teenage years, but this is something i only see cis people having, probably because most trans people didn't have a nice experience on their teen years
so, i decided to make a poll!
please boost my silly poll
also feel free to explain yourself, if you desire

are you...

cis, and i miss my teen years
3.5%
trans, and i miss my teen years
16.8%
cis, and i don't miss my teen years
23.8%
trans and i don't miss my teen years
55.9%
Poll ended at .
@agatha i miss being a teen, i dont exactly miss my teenage years... i do want to relive them, do everything better, be my true self, that sort of stuff
@stella it's unfair to want those years with the understanding of an adult, it's not really teen years then
it's just a younger body, more time, and less worries

@agatha i dont want it with the understanding of an adult, i just want it in an environment where i am aware that people can be trans
@stella so you want to be a teenager today instead of the time you were one?
at least i think teens nowadays know about it, i too didn't T_T

@agatha yeah, pretty much. i often still feel like i am a teenager, just trapped in an environment that is too old for me, too grown up
