"I don't want to change the world, I don't want the world to change me..." good old ozzy, lol.
Thanks for explaining some of that, and your support.
Take care

Hi

I do think people struggle when they come across someone who doesn't fit into there stereotypical view, especially when it comes to gender expression. To them, boys should look like X, and girls should look like Y, and not the other way round.
For myself i am a girl who looks like Y, but unfortunately i was born in a male body. For yourself, a girl who looks like X, but everyone else thinks you should look like Y.
Personally i would never tell someone to grow up because of how they choose to look, however they ID themselves. That is entirely up the individual, and not up to anyone else.
Be yourself
