30 day genderqueer challenge: Day Two

2) How did you grow up with your gender?

 Being a girl in the environment i grew up in was both undesirable and dangerous, attempting to be a boy if you were not one was sometimes undesirable sometimes rewarded and not dangerous till adolescence hit. (and in fact trying to be a girl and failing was somehow more problematic to the world around me than trying to be a boy and failing, maybe because I was somehow automatically supposed to know how to be a girl)
