    I would always look at celebrity photos online or in the magazine, but I tend to stare at the female celebrities too long.

    They verbalized this thought? Just wondering.

    Gender nonconformity is highly positively correlated with homosexuality and bisexuality from the professional articles I've read.

    As for the handwriting, I had that dialed and I heard quite a bit of annoying commentary on my cursive and on my printing. What an idiotic thing that being illegible is considered heteronormative.

    I didn't get along with my mom all that well.

    I wasn't overly gender-conforming, but it's not exactly as if homosexuality has symptoms to be diagnosed from youth.

    -I was an emotional child

    I wanted a dollhouse and barbies. I told my mom I wanted a "house", but she didn't know what I meant and she got me something tent-like. I still liked it and played with it, but it wasn't exactly what I was expecting. I also liked to put on a pink dress and walk at my afterschool daycare, while also playing with the dolls there.

    I loved Shania Twain and I had a VHS collection of her music videos. There may have been something else, but that's the big one.

    Just thought of something.

    I used to love playing hair stylist with my moms hair. I wonder what she thought when I was doing that.

    Yeah, I can't help it if I like calligraphy and paying attention to how I write. I think handwriting is a beautiful art that too many people have lost an appreciation for.

    Not to me at the time of course, but they apparently did discuss it with each other. And after I came out, they were basically not surprised at all and just waiting for me to confirm what they had already suspected for years.

    -Heh, I was very tomboyish as a child.
    -When I would play with barbies, it would always be the woman with another woman and the man with another man.
    -I always felt a strange attraction towards cute girls
    -all my teacher crushes were on girls
    -I remember when my 4th grade boyfriend would kiss me and it was always bland
    -he would actually say "i love you!" And i could never say it back so I would just say "you too!"
    -when he actually broke up with me, i really had to force myself to cry so i didnt feel like a cold hearted asshole, and when i did, it was like...a tear.
    -i actually had a small crush on the girl he was crushin on after that :y
    -i once sucked faces with another girl when i was like...5 and then with her brother and lemme tell you, she was far more enjoyable...they were a strange family and i was the little girl too shy to say no.
    -remember how i said i had to force myself to cry for this one boy? I bawled my eyes out over this one girl who gave my that eye opening, gay kiss, after she left me
    -it also felt more like a relief when i broke up with a guy.
    -(last one i swear) in the second grade, this boy who had a crush on me took me to his house and then i saw his 15 year old sister and wished i were older so i could talk to her like a "cool kid"...basically i had a crush on her.
    -FOR REAL LAST ONE: i had such a crush on my first grade teacher. She was gorgeous.

    I thought it was annoying when my friends wanted Ken to be a part of the barbie dolls' life.
    I only "fell in love" with gay male celebrities. And boys from my school with a sister... whom I liked..
    Later, I was always super annoyed when other children talked about who they liked. I guess I didn't really want to have anything to do with the fact, that I thought I would have to settle down in a fine little, hetero marriage. Also I never understood why the girls were going mad about boys.
    When my breasts first started developing, I was very happy, because when I put on a tight shirt, I thought I looked like a muscular man. when they grew bigger I hated them.

    Well, I got pretty turned on when some boy got his pants pulled down, or when I'd catch a peek at some kid's torso.
