This week it's different.
I read a story recently about a person who while being very much an adult of a good number of decades nontheless felt very much a younger woman in terms of her development around their 30's, interests and so on.
Although there are some similarities, this isn't about a person who is a age regressor, a person who temporarily goes back to time and mindset of someone younger often a child but a person who because of medical conditions in childhood has compared to their peers a much slower and less developed mindset to his or her peers to the point that they are permanently functionally and functioning as someone younger.
A term used in recent years to describe such a person is age dysphoric or having age dysphoria a state of difference, tensions with being on paper and possibly physically looking older than on the inside they actually are.
Often people like that get told to "grow up" (as if) or "act your age" when actually that is what you are doing.
Anyway this person is Trans and had been in a circle in her locality for a while going to meetings and social events together when she started to talk about this other side of her life when she was told to her face she was a sick pedo, a freak and was no longer welcome and what is more they circulated this across the trans networks in her area including deliberately planting untrue rumours like being a threat to children.
Thus she now has no trans social life as a the younger Woman she feels and developmentally is is on the inside facing hostility.
I have to say as someone who probably is like that I feel quite angry that a person who has done nothing wrong, isn't abusing children, treats people with respect was hounded out of their local trans community for a whole load of utter misunderstandings and then subject to untruths being spread.
How dare they go on about how this group and that group is included in lgbtq, that everybody's rights are valued and yet they treat her like that?
Perhaps THEY should 'grow up'?
