One of my early trans memories was when my mum gave me a book of short stories called “A Girl Named Francesca” and it was about a girl named Francesca. Anyways one of the stories was about one time she gave herself a haircut and butchered it so badly her parents had to cut it off. And because her hair was short now they were making jokes about her being a boy now and having to call her Frances. And god I think that did something to me because that was my favourite short story in that entire book because I loved the idea of having a haircut and being seen as a boy and being called a boys name. Totally cis behaviour

#a girl named Francesca transed me #anyways idk if I’ll be able to find help for this but those 70s scholastic books kill me because I vaguely remember them #but there was one that was about these three kids and two were brothers and the third was a cousin #and they found some magic stuff in their attic #like show magic #and they try it out and it works #and also the brothers father went missing because of a magic trick he did about a decade go #and one the tricks ends up with one of the boys invisible and he has a blast going on all the rides at the theme park for free.#but then he gets stuck on the Ferris wheel when it closes for the night #and in the end they do some magic trick and they bring back the father and they all lived happily ever after etc etc #i can’t remember what that story was called but if anyone else does can they tell me #trans #transgender
