My first conscious thought of 'I should be like that and not like this' was probably at about six, and I was playing with... I have a twin brother, and we were playing with our twin cousins, who are a boy and a girl.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Some twins feel like they need to compare themselves to each other, but we're not that way. That's because of my parents, though, and having six kids in the family.
I have brothers, and that so-called boyish quality was something that I was deathly self-conscious about when I was younger.
I was a bratty little sister. I was the youngest of three, and I often felt as though I didn't fit in.
I have a twin brother, so I was around guys like a sister. It was comfortable to me.
I've always felt this, from when I was growing up to now with my son Riley. We don't let them be little. I was not a normal kid, but I had a sense of innocence far longer than we let kids.
I was at the tail end of the family. The next brother along was already seven years older than me. I remember growing up by myself, playing games by myself.
I have three brothers, and they'd torture me if I ever told them I liked a boy.
I started to realize I wasn't like every other boy.
Til I was 10 years, I didn't know I had only two siblings. I always thought I had 10 and that they were all my family.
I had a friend, and we always used to pretend to be twins. We had this fantasy about going to Hollywood together. We were about four.
