There. Fixed it.
Kids this young imagine all sorts of silly things. When I was five, I wanted to be a superhero, or a unicorn -- or a fireman. I also told my parents that I wanted to be a boy and asked that I be called "Jimmy".
Thank goodness they didn't take that flight of fancy any more seriously than the other ones, or I would be one seriously messed up kid, instead of a happy wife and mother of two!
Thank God they didn't have the Trans Youth Family Advocates back then, "Jimmy". What, your parents didn't accommodate your true gender identity?
