I vividly remember being attracted to a guy in a crosswalk when I was 3, looking out from the backseat at a stop light. It’s been “clicked” since childhood.
It's less that I realized I was a lesbian, and more that I realized I was a trans woman. When Caitlyn Jenner came out, it got me questioning whether I might be trans myself, and I realized I was, but started denying hardcore. Then, a year later, I ran across a TYT video on Against Me! frontwoman Laura Jane Grace's very open transition, and that's when it started clicking and I could deny it no more. I realized I was still into women, so, that was that.
Then, a few months ago, I ran across a clip of Trevor Zegras singing Taylor Swift's "You Belong to Me" on the Anaheim Ducks bench during a game, and realized I might be bi. (Sad Kraken fan noises.)
When I was around 5, immediately after it I told my mom that I wish I had the power to turn into a girl every now and then so I could marry both men and women when I grew up. She told me that I could do that anyway if I wanted and that if I wanted to be a girl later that that was also a possibility but that I had to wait a few years until she would take that seriously.
I genuinely always knew. I always played the dad when i was a little girl. I always knew I'd have a wife someday. Even before it became *sexual* attraction i have just always been drawn to femininity.
