Southern gothic ish, real dark. I don't have an editor or anything and all my friends are saying its good (which I appreciate so much) but lord I need a critique.
As harsh as you can go, I love feedback and any points of view. im most inspired by flannery o'connor and cormac mccarthy in terms of subject matter!
Congenital adrenal hyperplasia, non classical. learned of this a few months ago when i went for my first gynecology appointment without being on birth control literally ever.
i came out to my mom as a ten year old because i wanted to be a boy, but i liked feminine things so she talked me out of it. i didnt have the words to describe what i was feeling at that point, which was that i was happy being a girl but felt like i should have a penis (longer than the bottom growth i have from a testosterone high puberty).
i feel very happy as a girl (and as a top lesbian, wondering if that also plays into androgen exposure?) but always wanted a penis and was very frustrated i didn't have one/didn't want to be a boy.
is this a common thing? does anyone else feel like their gender identity lines up with what they were assigned, but their "sex" wasnt?
