Most medical literature on trans people assumes that the vast majority of trans people started getting gender dysphoria since being small children. I suspect that a good portion of us got it later than that.

What was your experience with this?

    When did I recognize I was feeling something that turned out to be gender dysphoria? Idk some time in my mid 20s because of a friendship I had online with someone who called me his wife.

    In retrospect I probably ‘started’ feeling dysphoria as a very young child. Maybe 8 or 10? I remember doing a few things that could be seen as early experimentation.
