How old were you when you realized you were LGBT?
How old were you when you realized you were LGBT?
When I wanted to wear lipstick and makeup and dresses when I was like 4 or 5, but my mom also told me that when I was 3 one of my great aunts took her aside and told her that I was going to turn out to be gay and that she needed to accept it. I also remember feeling different when I asked for an easybake oven and my parents and family freaked the fuck out because they thought I would turn out to be gay. I really just wanted it because I was a little fat kid. Anyways, I'm not gay but trans so jokes on them
probably 4 or 5

was this you?
I was aware of being different by the age of 7 at the latest, since that's when I started packing, and I knew that was abnormal so I kept it a secret.
I didn't understand HOW I was different or know any vocabulary to describe that difference until I randomly learned that people like me exist from some news article on the internet. I came out a few weeks later.
t. pooner
10 or 11. I realized I liked girls with dicks and I figured that made me at least bi. Femboys came later.
around puberty I realised I'm not straight, forced myself to masturbate to straight porn to become straight, it didn't work
I realized I like boys when I was like 7. I had two friends I had crushes in. I realized I didnt like being a boy when I was in my pre-teens.
16 at the earliest
i have some hazy memories of wishing i were a girl and hating puberty way earlier though. like any time it'd be brought up i'd shut down or get immensely uncomfortable, to the point when i got told to shave my face the first time i had a nervous breakdown from looking at myself
internalised transphobia is one hell of a drug. would not recommend
Like 6
13 was when I recognized it, but I had a crush on a girl when I was about 7. Kind of an obsession with her. I was afraid of my feelings towards her so when my friends threw her in a stream for being a weird tomboy, I didn’t stick up for her and she ran away crying and never spoke to me again.
find her again and apologise and ask her to be ur second gf
This is something I don't understand. I never "realized" anything I just was always this way. I didn't have a "oh my God I think I may be gay oh god what the fuck do I do oh no" I just fucked a dude and liked it so I did that some more
eleven
at 13 i noticed that i had no crushes on any of the girls in my current or previous classes and that i had no desire for a relationship except to alleviate societal pressure
it took until late high-school for me to not only recognize but accept my same-sex attraction, although i can't say i was attracted to any of the guys there
i told my parents i wanted to be a girl when i was 6, but when they got mad i repressed for a while. most of my adolescence was me being like “nah i’m just an ally. maybe a weird cis guy”, and didn’t realize/accept i was trans until i was like 21-22
When I was 5. Didn't accept it until I was 30 though.
Since I was like 8 years old. Basically as soon as sex differences started becoming palpable and effecting me.
does agp count
I was 11 or 12 when I realized I liked guys. I cried myself to sleep for weeks thinking I was gonna go to hell. thanks dad
I considered contacting her when I was an older teenager, but we’re basically early 30s now so that’d be really weird. lmaooo
6 or 5. too bad I lived with chud parents.
11. I walked into middle school for the first day and saw everyone in their baseball uniforms you have to wear all day and I said yeah I’m gay.
orientation
7
gender
10 or 11
15. I was aware trans people existed before, but since the only time I heard about it was a pre teen trans girl social transitioning I didn't think hrt existed. Just had the idea the only thing they did was social transition.
Learned that it does in fact exist at 15.
I always knew I was pan (I would get crushes on basically anyone regardless of gender ever since I was small) and I realised I was trans when puberty hit and I realised there was more of a different between boys and girls than I thought, it's stuff like that is why sex education is important, would've helped me a lot
when i was about 8 my parents took me to the circus and there was a shirtless blonde muscular guy doing the acts
I didn't realise I was lgbt until I was told that liking boys was lgbt, pre-internet times, lol. I was 6 back then.
i was taught it was wrong from a very young age so I just went with it and internalized all that hatred. i couldn't tell you what age exactly that was but the fact they had to explain it to me that young makes me wonder
when i was about 8 my parents took me to the circus and there was a shirtless blonde muscular guy doing the acts
we clearly need to ban the circus. It's a corrupting influence for young people.
I don't remember anymore.
I came to the terms of being a gay around age of 17, but there were earlier signs and a period of denial, I just no longer know how early.
16
I started watching gay porn at like 14/15 tho
like 23 lmao
i remember when kids at school were talking about porn i said
ugh i can't stand porn all you can see is the penis like there's a penis right there in your face and it's all you can see
and girls used to do my hair and eyebrows while i sat there talking about history or some nerd crap then boys would get jealous and call me a fag
i jerked off to romantic literature
even losing my virginity and failing to get hard for my gf didn't make me quesiton it
only when a friend started flirting with me and would make my heart go waku waku did i really examine my own sexuality
checked and same
for as long as i can remember i've heard that fags are pedos, rapists, std machines, unnatural, abusive, incapable of relationships, just plain gross, and an affront to God
i had homophobia firmly drilled into me it was just completely unthinkable that i could possibly be gay because only monsters are gay
i was hanging around girls by age 7 but i didnt know what gay people were, when i realised they existed when i was 10 I realised that was me
like 13
I was 15 and I randomly put a penis in my mouth and didnt hate it.
13 but I couldnt get estrogen till I was 17. fuck my english chud life
really young, under 10, but i was raised catholic so i did a lot of mental gymnastics to deny it for a very long time
crushes on guys
super early childhood don’t remember the age
wanting to be a girl
like 4/5
finding out transition exists
like 12/13
around 14, i realized i preferred gooning to gay furries. i actually tried to repress it by forcing myself to fap to straight porn and that sorta worked for a couple years until i finally caved and started gooning exclusively to gay stuff
looking back definitely around 10-12, but i repressed it pretty hard because of my parents. it really wasn't until about 28 that i finally accepted it, then i had a weird mix of happiness because i could finally love myself and anger because i felt i had been robbed of so many years
26, became obsessed with crossdressing asian men lol
As a kid I had an unexplainable fascination with pretty characters who were male
