have you guys maybe thought that the reason little girls say “i want to be a boy” and/or “i want to dress like a boy” is not because they are actually trans boys, but because they don’t have the language yet to describe themselves in a highly gendered society? they don’t like the clothes little girls are forced to wear and they want to wear clothes meant to fit and be practical for actual human beings (boys)? maybe stop insisting that girls are actually boys because they don’t want to wear fucking dresses?
when i was 5 i thought i hated being a girl. people nowadays would have called me a trans boy. it didn’t occur to me until i discovered feminism that i just hated the gender hierachy and wanted to opt out of it.
