what fictional characters give you transage vibes?

i'll start:

Soos from Gravity Falls seems like he is a teen or adult chronologically but his personality is more of a child's

Alphonse Elric from Fullmetal Alchemist - his body for almost the entire anime is a large suit of armor, so he is often mistaken as an adult even though he's a young teen.

every time i visit a store with a kids clothing section i get insanely envious. kids get the best clothing designs, easily!! i really wish my body was much smaller so i could buy and wear them. i would be super cute and comfy.

if anyone has any suggestions for how i can get adult clothes with cute, colourful designs, i'd really love that!!

yesterday, with some much needed help and encouragement from a user on nnia.space, I was able to come out to my partner. i told him pretty much everything, about how i feel transage and that i feel attraction towards minors. i thought for sure that it was a secret i would carry to the grave. i thought if anyone ever found out they would hate me. but apparently i'm the luckiest boy alive, because now my boyfriend knows i'm a MAP, and he still loves me. he was really understanding, kind, and accepting.

ever since then, all i can think about is how much this feels like i'm living in some kind of dream. i can just... be myself? i don't know how to do that, really.

but for the first time in my life, i feel like there's hope for us, there are people who can understand that we're an oppressed minority, and not just irrationally hate us. there may be a future where MAPs and other paras get to live their lives being, at least, tolerated, rather than reviled. i don't know if i'll ever live to see that day, but i hope so, and i am going to try to do my part to make that day a reality.

much love and para solidarity!

hi everyone,

i really want to see rqd2 become a thriving, friendly community for paras to have community and to be able to talk about topics which we could never discuss on other instances or platforms

does anyone have any ideas for how we can encourage more activity here?

if you are a lurker: please let us know what you feel is missing?

are people feeling safe to interact here, or not?

is it just because the place is quiet, so nobody wants to really take that first step?

hey everyone, i'm new to this community (both this site and the larger transid/paraphilia community), i'm working on coming to terms with my experiences, identity and sexuality, but there's a lot of confusing feelings, uncertainty and self-loathing to work through. i'm feeling a bit lost in general and looking for a friendly, welcoming safe space to discuss and learn. not 100% sure how to describe myself, but

if anyone would like to chat with me to talk things out and help me get to grips with myself and the community, i'd really appreciate that, feel free to drop me a dm or add me on matrix, my username is on my profile

thanks for reading! <3
