I shouldâve known I was trans from an early age because when my sister and I were in elementary school we both had a HUGE obsession with 1953 Peter Pan (which was probably also a sign we were autistic but thatâs a story for another time), and whenever weâd pretend to be the characters she was always Wendy and I was always Peter. ALWAYS. And it wasnât like she made me play him âcause she wanted to be one of the few girl charactersâI chose this. Every time. Every. Single. Time.
Itâs astounding how long it took for me to realize I was nonbinary when the funky little fairy boy was my childhood.
(I also hyperfixated for years on Slightly and in retrospect Iâm pretty sure itâs because he gave me immense gender envy and I just didnât know what that was yet)
