Hmm delayed adolescence. I had that a bit, due to being a closet case until my early 20s. Lots of shit to explore that most get out of their system in their teens. Might be plausible, yeah. And identity is certainly part of that. But I still think that for them, identity gets taken to this place that doesn't quite add up but seems similar to the rest- possibly because of some implicit or emotional aspect of these things going completely unnoticed.
