I believe so. A young teen girl had posted on reddit detrans that she hated when she developed breast in middle school because the boys would make rude and sexually jokes. She also said that she hated having her period (what girl/woman enjoys it?). She enjoyed "boy activities" such as sports and hated anything "girly" like makeup. She began following trans and NB people on tumblr who basically told her that she was trans because she liked sports, hated girly clothes and hated having her breasts (even though this was because of unwanted attention from boys), she also had attraction to girls and of course the homophobes told her that she was really a straight guy. Many of the female reddit commentors shared the same story in the comments about hating getting their breast and periods as well as being told online that this was a symptom of gender dysphoria and therefor they were trans.

I did, for the first half a year or so. Like, whoa, science! Then the novelty wore off and I didn't care.
