Your post suddenly brought to my memory my own puberty. I remember getting my breast buds when I was 10 and feeling what I guess people now describe as dysphoric. I remember feeling horrified watching my pubic area develop. I was so terrified of being a female adult, and had been ever since I was a toddler and saw that my menstruating mother got up from the toilet and inside it was all bright red. I probably would have tried to transition had I thought that that might be a choice to avoid periods and the sexual harrassment I had when growing up.
