Heya! I'm a trans-guy! I was wondering if there were any other trans folks that struggle with/have weird feelings about things you enjoyed in your childhood?
While I certainly like and have respect for Barbie nowadays, I always dreaded holidays with extended family lmao. I'm a dino guy, dangit!
(It was, of course, nice that they thought of me, but it always made me aware when people didn't know me at all lol)
But there are certainly other things from my childhood that were "for girls" that I really enjoyed. Furby, Tamagotchi, Doodle Bear, Skydancers, etc. etc.
I still MOSTLY enjoy these things, but it often has me confronting my gender in a space where it's not particularly welcome.
This is especially true when buying from ABDL companies. I like blue and hate pink, but I don't feel nostalgic for a lot of the "boy" designs, and I do for certain "girl" things.
So I tend to gravitate towards gender neutral items so I don't have to think about it lol
Obviously, I like what I like and I'm not looking to necessarily change my preferences, but I was wondering if anyone else struggled with this and how you handled it.
