let me try to put it another way

the term girl for many butches,tgs and transmen ( somewhat like me growing up)
(not that I am speaking for all of them or everyone please note all the disclaimers)
can and does lead to really fucked up and dysphoric feelings.
You dont as a kid feel "right", ever. You want to feel "right" but dont know how.

So you grow up and look masculine, get secure in yourself because your face is
screaming hi I'm a deisel dyke everyday 24/7. Some take it to the next
level of comfort to feel "right" aligned etc and transition. Some dont.

Its really all about comfort and the details. (To me)
