I think there is too much emphasis placed upon gender and what we do that defines it particularly as a child, amongst other things. Because a boy plays with a doll he will grow up to be gay or trans? Perhaps. Or maybe he's emulating he father caring for his baby sister. Because a girl wears cargo pants and has her hair buzzed she must be les or trans? Perhaps. Or maybe her mother and uncle are fighting in the military and she wants to grow up and defend her country too. Does it matter what little trinkets and oddities we do and should they define us? I think we place to much trust and force on these simple acts and allow them to dictate our lives. How you feel comes from the heart and only you know what it says. You feel you're a boy. Great. You were born a female. Great. You also feel you are gay. Great. Does not change your character, your ability to function, or your ability to love and show compassion one bit.
On a less serious note and more to topic, I grew up playing with Barbies, Transformers, Hot Wheels, My Little Pony, Legos, Makeup, Sticks, Dirt, Bugs, and Imaginary Friends. I always new I was a boy though. However, I still wanted pink furry carpet and to live in a sparkling castle with my prince.
