Tomboy with strong female role models

As i said before being caught between the world of male and female i never really felt like a boy but there were certainly some things i enjoyed that were more targeted at boys than girls. This is why i can say i was a bit of a tomboy even as a trans girl. Don't get me wrong i was just as comfortable in a frilly dress as i was in boys clothes and i enjoyed the outdoors. I also enjoyed several cartoon series oriented toward boys.

Two of my favorites were GI Joe a Real American Hero and Voltron Defender of the Universe. Both shows targeted at boys both with strong female characters. It turns out my to favorite characters were Lady Jaye on GI Joe and Princess Allura on Voltron.

Lady Jaye a tough woman the equal of any of her male counterparts. A fierce fighter who was also just as comfortable in high heels and an evening gown as she was in combat boots and fatigues. She was certainly never a damsel in distress type. And on top of all that she was romantically involved with the dashing and rugged Green Beret Flint.

Princess Allura the pilot of the Blue Lion. The ruler of the planet Arus and a resourceful warrior. She was an important part of the Voltron team.

These characters were likely part of the show to try to attract female viewers i doubt the creators knew they would provide strong female role models to a young transgendered girl.
