Hope this is the right place for this XD

Anyway. So i had an alright childhood, minus the being pushed to be a girl and all. But i actually have some fond memories and carry on a few things, which i have strange feelings about.

For instance. Today i rediscovered this old 90's game "Rockett's new school". It was an adventure game for girls, and it was just...very girl. I loved it then, and I'm actually thinking of finding it again and such! That and i still love things like dolls. I mean, all this sounds very silly to me when i type it out, seeing as gender stereotyping is slowly working its way out of my head. It's tough.

The purpose of this was - Is there anything that you liked before transition that you still kind of enjoy now? x: (And do i sound crazy? lol!)

Nah. That's not crazy at all.

You will find that there a lot of people that still enjoy a lot of the things that they did pre-transition. I still enjoy a lot of Metal stuff, Harsh Noise music, etc. I saw no need to give that up just because I was transitioning. I've heard some people say that it's "too masculine" to like that stuff, but that's totally goofy. You like what you like and it doesn't have ANYTHING to do with how "masculine" or "feminine" you are. Hell, even if I was a genetic chick, I still wouldn't be "feminine". None of the other women in my family were, so I doubt that I would have went that way.

I'm so glad times have changed and are changing to where anyone can like or do anything though. x.x

Meh...I've always held the belief that I liked what I like and screw anyone that has a problem with that. I remember getting crap from people when I was a kid because I was into Metal. Then when I was in high school, I was actually shunned by the very tiny group of metalheads that were there since I was a "nerd" and didn't fit their standards of what a metalhead was "supposed" to look like. But, in reality, they were the posers since all they knew was the usual commercial Thrash stuff and had no idea about Death Metal, Grindcore or Black Metal. They thought that Darkthrone were "Death Metal" for crying out loud. Yeah...and I was the poser. Not to mention that they had no knowledge of the "Earache" bands which were huge in the underground scene at the time.

And I was the poser?? Pfft...Okay. ::)

lol, I thought this said "Odd Nordstoga" which is one of my favourite singers...anyway.

I dunno, I still like Sailor Moon and you could consider that girly, I guess. But that's just something I like, gender aside.
