We have a wonderful and beautiful 9 y.o. (nil cup) daughter. We first wondered about her when she was only 4. Now last night she confirms for us by telling us that she knows she was meant to be a boy and that she is a boy trapped inside a girl's body. At age 3 she developed a great interest in stereotypically male subjects, most pronounced was superheroes. She was obsessed first with Spiderman, then Batman. By kindergarten she refused to wear anything with the color pink. By the end of first grade, she would only wear pants and would cry and complain over even the suggestion that she wear a dress or skirt. By 3rd grade she began asking to shop from the boys department for her clothes and refusing the do anything with her hair (pigtails, ponytails, braids, clips, head bands, ribbons) other than brush it and wear it straight down. Last night we needed to take her to supplement her school clothes. School started 7/31 and she has been getting by with the last few things that fit from last spring semester. She became hysterical and extremely emotionally distraught over my wife trying to even go into the girls department for the clothes. She broke down in sobs telling my wife that we don't understand her and that we are trying to force her to be something that she isn't. She said she is a boy trapped inside a girls body and she can't feel natural or comfortable wearing girls clothes. She said she wants to be a boy and thinks something went wrong when she was born. Am very sad right now.
