That's not what gaslighting means. They're just trying to empathise with you 🙄

"I was put into a gender box for years that isn't suited to me", or you accepted a false view of reality presented to you, probably in the absence of anyone presenting a better alternative, and you just chose a different gender box you think is suited to you because the grass is always greener.

Even after desisting, I would occasionally wish something would happen so I could get certain female body parts removed without gender being the reason 😬

I was ostracized by women during that time because I was different.

One thing people often still don't get is, the place being gender non-conforming hits you hardest is in personality differences, not external things like doing sports, how you dress or climbing trees.

So many agreeable GCs will go on and on about how TiFs should just be themselves as women but would 100% exclude everyone of those girls irl from their social circle because they are "weirdos".

It's no surprise that neurodiverse women and girls are more likely to get caught up in these delusions when you understand this. They have no chance to fit in.

You know not what you are talking about. I like how you just assume GC women all fit in perfectly and aren't themselves excluded in social situations. Clearly, you think A) all GC women are the same and B) that we all conform to certain societal standards and fit in seamlessly. Absolute BS. You are basically calling us cisgendered without using the word. Just because we don't project our our own respective lack of belonging into obsessive gender neuroses that other people must deal with for us does not mean we are the popular mean girls.
