3 Cross Dressing
If a child or adult feels as though they are in the wrong body, then they might do whatever they can in order to feel as though they are back in the right one. This can include dressing as the opposite sex, in a bid to try and feel more like a girl/boy.
Again, this is something a child might be reluctant to come out and admit to. But if you notice subtle signs, then it can give you a clue.
Keep in mind though, that cross-dressing on its own is not necessarily a sign of dysphoria. There are many men who enjoy dressing as a woman with no desire to become one – and vice versa. Moreover, children do sometimes go through a phase of ‘curiosity’. They may even just be dressing up for fun.
Again, tackle the topic carefully in order to try and find out more about why your child/friend is doing this, and what it means.
