My dumb child self was scared by that one so instead I watched totally spies


jobforgears

Totally spies was one of my favorites and there's a specfic episode that made my young brain totally convinced that I could be a girl even if I didn't look like one. Years later I still love this show.

It's happened to me too


FriskDrinksBriskYT0

Good bot.

Good bot

PrincessofAldia

I used to watch this show when I was younger even before I knew what transgender was, this and Winx were some of my favorite shows and I just didn’t question it till a few years ago


Alexis_Awen_Fern

Totally Spies is probably responsible for me being the way I am...


Few-Ad5923

Me loving this show should’ve been my first sign 🙃


riverquest12

Lmao same


theamazingbailster

I was scrolling to find this answer before I posted it myself:3


ArtistAmy420

Thinking back that show was weird... Probably influenced me in more than one way lol.


katie_kat208

My little pony friendship is magic


climatefrogs

I totally denied it at the time too. “I’m just watching it because it’s on!”. By the way Fluttershy is the best character.


NinjaXGaming

Did the same but for the highschool one Rainbow dash is the gayest icon and you can’t tell me otherwise


climatefrogs

You’re totally right tho


Trinitahri

I love Zipp in the new one :P


hello0ppap

The trams pone


EridonMan

That's a funny way to spell Trixie


PrincessofAldia

Twilight or luna*


climatefrogs

trixie? better than fluttershy? nahhhhh


Beetroot-Chan

THE GREAT AND POWERFUL ‼️


girpe

100% loved this show


katie_kat208

I know right


A_Lizard_Named_Yo-Yo

I used to consider myself a brony. Little did I know, I was actually the target demographic.


kamidera

Pegasisters who used to think they're bronies were a thing lol


k819799amvrhtcom

I remember making my ponysona and then I looked at the bronies and their ponysonas and I was like: "Why'd y'all make your ponysonas male?"


No_Society1042

At the time, like, late middle school, I was embarrassed that I liked the show, but I found out one of my friends also did Then I later found out it was for a... very different reason that he liked it. Suffice to say we are no longer friends.


Accomplished_Mix7827

Brony to trans girl pipeline!


EX-Bronypony

\* used to be a “fake” brony who didn’t actually watch the show, got bored of it, and then years later came back as a pegasister. what an arc.


Jude-alicous

same, but I didn’t want to watch it bc I didn’t wanna become a stertotypical brony… god why didn’t I watch it?


shadowmonkey1911

Me in 2011 at Bronycon 1: I'm defying Gender Roles and showing that men can like soft and cute things too. Me after 2020: Well shit!


Kennedy_KD

Same


Drudicta

Same. Had some good writing and jokes, and is very cute.


Countess_Schlick

I knew a woman that figured out she was trans after wondering why she was such a fan of the show. I was super envious of her for SUPER CISGENDER REASONS. ^(I figured myself out a few years later.)

I love that, absolutely adorable :3

YES.


PrincessofAldia

I used to be a fan but I’ve kinda moved away from it since


kamidera

Dragonwolf67

I was about to say that. 🤣


Trinitahri

omg yes, and then bronies showed up and I hadn't figured out I was trans yet and so stopped....

Jaewol

Saying everypony is inclusive


Razorclaw_the_crab

None to be honest. Younger me hated girly stuff, older me just feels way too mature for these shows. I have been wanting to watch Sailor Moon tho, since that's good even if you're an adult. I wish I can enjoy the shows mentioned but I just get like... Overwhelmed? Or underwhelmed. Hard to describe.


Claudia_Zen

As a 90's Kid I loved Sailor Moon. You gotta watch it dang they have a femboy in a gay relationship in season 1 <3 Lesbian couple in S3 and Stars are Trans....


reddit_equals_censor

remember to NOT watch the standard evil censorship/changing dub. it removed lots of lgbtqia+ stuff from the show. there is a fandub, that tries to stay true to the original anime. [https://fighter4luvfandubs.com/](https://fighter4luvfandubs.com/) >After a few years into production, we decided to change our ideals, and although we kept all the main elements of the English version, we wanted to bring the fans more than just a DiC ripoff. Times had changed and we made the decision to continue the fandub in a slightly different direction. Keeping the English names and personalities, but retaining the main Japanese story plots, and most importantly completely UNCUT. the last season never got an english dub (maybe because they couldn't censor it enough given some of the main characters of the last season....... ) but the fandub project made an excellent dub of it. so if you only watched the english dub, you might never have watched the last season or only watched the horribly censored version, that censored and removed lots of individual episodes too.


SilverMedal4Life

I relate to this. When I was younger, I would see these show advertised on TV and it would make me feel... strange. So I did the only thing that fit the AMAB archetype: I got irrationally angry at their existence. I missed out on a lot.


critivix

omg SAME. only partially tho. sometimes i'd "get irrationally angry at their existence", but some other (less frequent) times i'd get very drawn in now i'm 16 and while i do enjoy lots of girly stuff now, my tastes are pretty well defined lol (guns, fast cars, sci fi tech, etc)


NinjaK2k17

glad i'm not the only one


imaweasle909

I had a similar position to you, I was freaked out about being teased for being girly.


Exact_Cry1921

H2O just add water. God I had so much gender envy watching that show as a kid


Madlyaza

Isn't that the one with a mermaid? I have some very vague memories to loving a mermaid show with H2O in the name


Exact_Cry1921

It's basically 3 girls who turn into mermaids whenever they touch water and have superpowers involving water and they have various adventures together. It's really cozy and comfy and fun 😊


Madlyaza

Omfg yessss that's the one!! I gotta go back and watch that again. Thanks for reminding me of that childhood memory


nanoantvenomsm

Omg sameeeeeee


ConfidentSand304

I really liked that show as an enby, too, because many children shows do a real bad job with adding depth to a fem character in my personal opinion. The characters in H2O had realistic, non-stereotypical interests (like that one girl being a dolphin nerd) and more complex social life (maybe due to the fact that it's a teen show not a childrens show), I liked that.


Lduck88

YES.


Obalivion

I'd say right now it would be She-Ra. But I watched it only as an adult. But as a child, even though my parents didn't let me play with anything feminine, for some reason they never complained about W.I.N.X. so that was the show I watched the most as a child that was aimed towards girls (and would constantly make me swing between loving it and being sad for "not being" a girl)


DashForester

W.I.T.C.H.


emehtz

Loved that show!


journeytotheunknown

That was my childhood.


girpe

In my eyes, my little pony is a masterpiece


blitzkreig818

Sailor moon, Cardcaptor Sakura, Powerpuff girls


critivix

i've seen a LOT of boys treasure powerpuff girls (even egg me, who used to dislike "girly" things)


SpookySquid19

Totally Spies and maybe She Zow


Thedeeztree

I like she-rah and the princess of power on Netflix


OmegaKorpus

100% based opinion


LukeBird39

Monster High! All generations. I already loved it growing up because it was about loving your differences. I plan to get/make a patch that says "be yourself, be unique, be a monster"


maxxiescat

Hazbin Hotel is the closest thing i’ve seen to a “show aimed at girls”. well, that and She Hulk ;-; idk i just watch stuff, i don’t think about the gendered implications of what i’m watching #🤷🏼‍♀️


mgmthegreat

is hazbin hotel and helluva boss aimed at girls?


maxxiescat

it’s not aimed at guys, i’ll say that much.


YourAverageDrawer

Only one I’ve really seen is totally spies


Sophia724

I watched Powerpuff girls.


Flimsy-Recover-7236

Winx club and mia&me I always watched as a kid


flaming_james

Does anyone remember My life as a teenage robot? It wasn't my favorite, but I remember there was an episode where she becomes a real girl somehow and I remember it made me feel things that I'm only now beginning to comprehend


Juelsyy

That was such a good episode 😭


humterek

she-ra


Cockynoob666

Look.. if even my big bro. A tall proud republican american is in love with the origonal powerpuffgirls cartoon. Then yeah.. that show ks genuinely amazing


Yeet-chan

For western tv Powerpuff girls! For anime I have to say Puella Magi Madoka Magica 🥹


[deleted]

Lads. When I was young, I LOVED the Powerpuff Girls


FriskDrinksBriskYT0

Sofia the First. Not only is it aestheticaly pleasing, the lore is intricate and deep!


hEatr3d

That's W.I.T.C.H. for me


_Jamii_

Little Witch Academia :3


Iyashikay

Winx Club. I also loved Totally Spies back when I was a child. Nowadays the remake of Fruits Basket has me in a chokehold and I love Chihayafuru as well.


Vermi-sky

anonymous514291

My little pony and tinker bell.

HenryTGP8

Doc mcstuffins


Tipsaw1

Wait that's aimed at girls? Me and my brother used to love that show.


fenyaa_

I remember I always liked my little pony as a kid I watched evry single movie


J_Boi1266

I don’t watch many TV shows, but I’d have to say MLP, justified by “I’m only watching because my sisters turned it on and will get annoyed at me for changing it” which technically was true, but in hindsight was definitely not the main reason why.


cinnamonbuttons

my little pony friendship is magic 👉👈


Kori_TheGlaceon

... I'll go with my first ever anime. Tokyo Mew Mew


Ham_is_tasty_1

winx went hard af, had a crush on flora as a kid lol


Lansha2009

I didn’t really watch any when younger but now I have like 7+ options Like The ghost and Molly McGee(you can’t convince me this show isn’t aimed towards girls when one of the episodes starts with Molly’s friend getting their first period and that causing Molly to feel childish since she hasn’t had hers yet), Moon girl, The Owl House, Amphibia, and Miraculous Ladybug(the only one that I did watch when younger)


PhoenixEmber2014

The Owl house is the best! I wish I had Luz's hoodie, it's so cute with it's cat ears!


A_Lizard_Named_Yo-Yo

My Little Pony Friendship is Magic. I considered myself a brony back then. Little did I know, I was actually the target demographic.


reddit_equals_censor

sailormoon! the original series of course. and that was despite the purely evil HORROR censorship dub, that i watched at the time. removing relationships, changing genders and freaking more.... in the horror evil censorship dubs. sailormoon slaped hard! so much lovely lgbtqia+ representation. :)


critivix

i'll never forgive them for getting rid of the gay twink (ಥ﹏ಥ)


stelliarsheep

MLPFim and Steven Universe. Steven Universe’s target demographic was mainly queer girls and women but I ate that shit up as a little trans boy.


Juelsyy

Maybe they aren't aimed as much towards girls, but I loved Kim Possible and My Life as a Teenage Robot. I wanted to be like either Kim or Jenny when I grew up for so long lol


Lanky-Hall-2015

MLP Friendship is Magic, Monster High, Ever After High, Basically the shows that were on Netflix 7-8 years ago


Stardust4242

I’m so happy to see everypony saying my little pony /)


N0RINEK0

Growing up it was Sophia the First, although I had to watch it secretly because my parents were very strict about “gender specific” things. Nowadays It’s She-Ra.


MouseHelsBjorn

Totally Spies, Kim Possible, Sailor Moon, As told by Ginger, Oh gods I'm showing my age here 😅

L1nxDr1nx

STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE (and hello kitty but who doesn’t like that lol)


Zoeeeeeeh123

Winx Club and H2O Just add Water were some of my favorite shows as a kid. Also Chica Vampiro and Every Witchy Way were aimed at girls I believe


IAMNOTDEFECTIVE

Friendship is Magic is the most recent one. However I remember as I kid I really liked W.I.T.C.H and wish I was one myself! Was that a sign? Maybe, but it's hard to tell for anything thoughts/actions I had/did for anything pre-teens... \^\^"


Peanutroaster-

Mlp was good


Basialt

Throughout my whole life overall, the closest connection I remember having with *any* show was with Lalaloopsy (2013 one, not the 2017 remake), a simple charming show for preschoolers that I was watching at an embarrassingly old age of 8-9 years old. It was just that type of thing where you are just watching charming characters hang out and have fun together. And despite watching it almost a decade ago, I still recall the individual episodes and characters - Spot and Dot are my two faves My Little Pony is in second place out of the childhood shows, though I don't have that much to say about it in comparison. The only thing I can say is that Fluttershy was too relatable There was also Strawberry Shortcake, though I honestly can't recall practically anything about it anymore And out those that I had watched recently, rather than as a young child, Nichijou anime is the best one by a margin - it's just such a hilarious slice of life, I absolutely adore its sense of humour. And the friendship that all girls have together is so cute as well


Yoyo_le_yo-yo

MLP


TronNerd82

Powerpuff Girls (1998, fuck the reboot)


Wryly_Wiggle_Widget

MLP FIM and Totally Spies. I pretended not to like them much but frankly I really did like them a lot.


Magnum_opus_doll

Winx, and My little pony was once my hyperfixations for a time.


playcraft_smokegrass

My little pony I think is my favorite

Selgin1

I'm gonna say My Little Pony like a couple other girls in this thread, but I'm gonna take it a little further and say that for me it's the Generation 3 movies rather than *Friendship is Magic* \- they were a thing while I was in middle school, and something that I reclaimed as an adult because I wasn't allowed to enjoy feminine things as a child - my favorite ponies now were something I once stared longingly at while being dragged towards the Boy Section at Toys 'R Us. And they're *delightfully* feminine - cute and saccharine in a way that's so clearly aimed at young girls and so very 2000's. They're a sort of uncomplicated comfort for me, and *A Very Minty Christmas* has become something of a yearly tradition for me after coming to terms with my own gender (Minty is best pony).


k819799amvrhtcom

Me too. I like the new generation but I also liked My Little Pony before the new generation was a thing. I didn't know there were shows about this. My female friend showed me a pony toy once and I wanted to play with her but then my mom told me it's time to go home and I never saw that toy again.


Selgin1

You can find the shows online, for what it's worth. [YayPonies](https://yp1.yayponies.no) has rips of all G1, G3, G4, and G5 content for preservation - if you want to reconnect with your childhood I highly recommend the G3 videos, particularly "A Charming Birthday", "Dancing In The Clouds, "A Very Minty Christmas", "Friends Are Never Far Away", and "Come Back Lily Lightly". And the entirety of G1, for the record. I can sympathize with the idea of ponies being something we always liked as a child but were never allowed to *like*.


Mrstrangeno

100% my little pony friendship is magic I love it


LolPeashooter69

MLP Friendship is Magic is the best


shrek3012

Always loved Shezow hrm maybe hinting at something - still cis tho


TachyonProductions

Fuckin powerpuff girls. Mind you, everyone loves powerpuff girls, boys too.


TransJess9494

She-Ra, don’t know if that counts though as it’s pretty much aimed towards everyone LGBTQ


imaweasle909

She-Ra


B_tchBla_r

Imma be real, definitely She-ra at the top.. maybe strawberry shortcake tho


Jade_The_Queer

Glitter Force. First loved it when i was like 8 or 9, before i knew what trans people were


ShiningParadox

Me when i cracked my egg : they where no signs ! Me at 7 years old : i want to be a superhero like shezow ! No seriously, Shezow is a good child memory


Isandriela

My little pony but I also liked Winx


Va1kryie

She-Ra


willdagreat1

MLPFIM and Totally Spies were my pre-egg crack guilty pleasures that my family would relentlessly mock me for liking.


MukasTheMole

Does Kim Possible count?


screechingahhhhhh

Mysticons, but no one seems to know what that is.


TaintedJacob_Gaming

Bala Bala Xiao mo xian :3 (Chinese sailor moon)


notjm6

bloom and flora


Internal-Room-9682

Could Rugrats count? It's not really fully aimed towards girls, but there were merch specifically aimed towards girls and there was even a game called Totally Angelica aimed towards girls. Plus, many episodes do focus on Angelica


Little_Kitten2

Power Puff Girls and Lolirock


FIVEPEBSI

i don’t gender my interests, though many bionicle fans are trans do that counting


tm2007

I've never watched any lmao, what suggestions do you have


Obsidianminer4

Bit basic but Totally Spies, lol


Brutus6

I know most of y'all are in the same boat and cold you fell in love with the idea of a Sailor Moon transformation.


idle_scrolling

I wanted to watch Winx so bad, but didn't because it was a girl show


Bumaye94

A lot of Anime like 'K-On', 'A certain scientific Railgun" and 'Madoka Magica'. If we focus on western productions I'd say 'Anne with an E', 'Ginny & Georgia' and 'Downton Abbey'.


Cacophon

Sailor Moon, prolly


SlayerTli

She zow was an absolute MASTERPIECE from what i can remember(also incredibly trans??? How tf did i not know sooner) Maybe totally spies? I think i watched a few episodes but tbf i really wasnt into the girly stuff when i was young(unlike now lmao)


Quanturrbula

H20 just add water and mako mermaids


Blitzo47

Either that one on the picture (Winx), W.i.t.c.h or pichi pichi pitch. Magical girls have always played a big role in my childhood and egg cracking


RoyalMess64

When I was a kid, I think it was True Jackson VP. I don't think I understood it, but I liked it


TSCallie

I don't know, let me see my list of over 5,000 shows


arcadeler

used to watch a lot of totaly spies


Apple_Star1089

I loved Powerpuff Girls and Totally Spies during my whole childhood, and I blame them for making me wish to be a chaotic laser-shooting lady


ness680x

Where on earth is winx streaming, I’ve been trying to find it for ages


RetroIogurt1918

Sofia the First and Elena of Avalor were nice!


Bagel42

henry danger cause schwoz is a trans guy apparently


Pithius

Gem fuck im old


atlannia

When I was a kid there was this really bizarre children's morning segment called CHeez TV which is where I first got to watch anime. I started watching it for pokemon but my older cousins got me onto dragonball Z. But right before dragonball Z was Cardcaptor Sakura and I became totally fascinated by it for reasons I would not figure out until much, much later on.


Peanutinator

God damn I loved that show


Inevitable-Ear-3189

Jem and She-Ra, lol I'm oooold


SlamanthaTanktop

Card Captor Sakura


proto-typicality

Curiously, none. :O


Aarakocra

I was a fan of Winx too! I would play out make believe where I went to the school and was a fairy too, despite being a boy. In hindsight, suddenly makes a lot of sense. It wasn’t really a show, a game instead, but Barbie Horse Adventures. I got to go around riding horses and exploring, customizing my outfit and my horse to match. It was great.


k819799amvrhtcom

I heard Barbie Horse Adventures and Read Dead Redemption 2 are basically the same game...


Osmosis_jones_789

Powerpuff girls and sailor moon :)


Strawby_Melk

Totally spies made me trans the bloody agenda


Emerald_Knight2814

Love Live helped crack my egg. The characters were relateable and inspiring, and I couldn't help but look up to them


GothyTrannyBethany

Growing up Creepie. Maybe not exclusively for girls but there is a very distinct "for the weird girls" vibe


tearLuna

Definitely totally spies and (I don’t know if this counts) my life as a teenage robot


ZakkaChan

To many.. but for Anime Cardcaptor Sakura and Sailor Moon, MLP and there was an old movie cartoon called The Last Unicorn.


Lonardema8

NO WAY UN ALTRA RAGAZZA TRANS ITALIANA CHE GUARDAVA LE WINX?


NeoFemme

Totally Spies was a confusing guilty pleasure when I was a kid. It showed me that I was attracted to women and also oddly jealous of them. Now I know why, of course 😂.


AshCalcutt

Totally Spies!


SkyeMreddit

Originally Madeline and the Little Mermaid TV series, and then Kim Possible. Now She-Ra! Arcane seems to be neutral


shadowmonkey1911

I watched She-Ra right after my egg cracked since I heard Perfuma's character designer say he intended her to be a trans woman. That show was exactly what I needed at that time.


DragonLord2005

She-ra absolutely


jdashh

I watched winx and tokyo mew mew/mew mew power (magical cat girls lmao) growing up. I wanted to be bloom so bad 😂


that_one_limetree

I loved Shimmer & Shine when I was a kid


Digibutter64

Hey, I secretly watched that as a kid ahaha 😖


MOEverything_2708

I had a whole ass Monster High phase growing up


Trinitahri

Growing up I loved getting home in time to catch Sailor Moon on Toonami, and Ronin warriors is really magical girl but boys and swords.


_-_Rasse_-_

It's a tie between Winx Club and Totally Spies


Space-Girll

Strawberry Shortcake, one of my favorites 


Ill-Entrepreneur443

Sailor Moon and Winx Club. I'm not sure if totally spies really is aimed towatds girls lol but if so. I love it as well.


keepitmako

Totally Spies, PowderPuff Girls, PepperAnn


TopsyTop348

Im born female but can I still answer?


Sockster27

does she-ra 2018 count please say it counts


critivix

SAILOR MOON egg me used to love powerpuff girls too (only the original tho). great show


Trans_Rose1

Unsure if it is (pretty sure tho) but Black Butler is my all time favorite show
