I always loved skirts and thigh highs but I don’t feel like a girl, being seen as a girl makes me feel icky. I’ve always felt like more of a boy (not 100% a boy but definitely 0% girl). It was a bit confusing when I was young because people told me that liking those meant I was a girl. I like girl things but am not a girl.
I know that well now, when I was a kid it wasn’t so clear to me. Many people told me that my desire to play with other boys was because I had a crush on them, which wasn’t the reason. I mean I’ve had crushes on boys but also on girls too (though I didn’t dare tell my family that).

Gender presentation != gender identity. You can totally be a boy (cis or trans) and like “girl things”, it’s all arbitrary stereotypes anyway
