for what it's worth I disagree entirely. [I Am a Democrat]

I knew right away at 13 that my Anime obsession was not a PHASE I would EVER grow out of, I also understood that I would never ever develop a desire for children.

at 35 I now know I was right and every dipshit that insisted adamantly I was wrong knew NOTHING.

Because I still Am an Otaku, in fact even STRONGER than before and I NEVER WANT Kids.

I bring this all up even though it seems unrelated because I was aware of my identity at such a young age.

And I was alienated at what was expected of me as a man.

my instincts were not wrong then, and they're not wrong now.

oh and, Being an Anime Nerd back then was something you couldn't do without paying a price for it.

One of my kids is trans. As parent, my job didn't change. I love them and offer them guidance when they ask for it. Though I may never understand it.
