Panel 4: Dressing

One weekend day, after Nozomu began experimenting on her own with wearing girl's clothing at home and at Hana-chan's home, Hana-chan decided that Nozomu needed a lesson on how a teenage girl would properly dress herself to be as pleasing and attractive as possible. Hana-chan makes her way over to Nozomu's home, and the two go up to Nozomu's bedroom. Little did Hana-chan know or realize that her timely advice would soon spur Nozomu on to secretly go out in public for the very first time presenting as a girl. Hana-chan begins from the inside (underwear) out !

\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_

Up until now, when Nozomu wore girl's clothing, it was with boy's underwear. Hana-chan shows Nozomu a girl's camisole and white panties. Nozomu's choice of underwear is about to change rather dramatically !

\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_

Unfamiliar with girl's intimate underwear, Nozomu at first protests. But she is about to 'pass the point of no return' !

\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_

Although Hana-chan tries to be as helpful (!?!) as possible, Nozomu opts for self-service !

Masaomi Yoshizaki

MASAOMI YOSHIZAKI

Masaomi is the childhood friend of male Kenji. They did everything together, and were the best of friends. So it came as quite a surprise that Kenji's parents had decided that their only teenage son would be changed into a girl in order to produce more girl babies. The government would, under the Balance Policy, pay all the expenses, as well as pay the parents very well. After being gone about a year, Kenji comes back as an anatomically correct girl. Masaomi tries to reestablish their male with male relationship, but finds out that is not entirely possible with a girl. Masaomi tries to readjust, but finds that shipping between a boy and a girl is very much different, and requires that he rethink everything about being with and around Kenji. Nevertheless, Masaomi is not ready to give up on his best friend, boy or girl. Thus begins a new chapter in Masaomi's life and devotion to their best friend and companion.

At the end of the story, fifteen years later, when Masaomi is about 30 years old and still single, he slowly begins to recall and begin again his friendship with the now 30-year-old female Kenji. It is implied that the two of them begin dating.

My Girlfriend is a Transgirl

MY GIRLFRIEND IS A [TRANS GIRL] / MY GIRLFRIEND IS A CROSSDRESSER / Watashi no Kanojo wa Otokonoko / 私の彼女は男の子

A SHORT STORY MANGA BY HINA RUTAROU

**Story Designation**---Canon

**Synopsis**

Rutarou Hina presents a modern love story about an atypical romantic high school couple. Makoto, a male to female transgender teenager, and Yuuko, a gender non-conforming teenager who dresses as a girl, have known one another since childhood. They are now in a romantic relationship with each other. Makoto's classmate, Miki, a cis-gender teen, who has known the two intimate friends for quite some time, feigns curiosity in the couple's relationship, then decides to see if she can drive an emotional and social wedge between the couple. This because Miki herself has romantic aspirations toward Makoto, and wants Yuuko to be dismissed, so that Miki can pursue her attraction to Makoto.

*Watashi no Kanojo wa Otokonoko* won the "Morning Zero" Encouragement Award for September 2018.

**Prologue**

When you fall in love, what is your number one criteria ? Their face ? Their fashion style ? Their personality ?

Well before all that, there is another criteria to decide. It doesn't matter if your are straight, or otherwise, the first criteria when it comes to falling in love is *"GENDER"* ! Well, then, what if you *don't* have a gender ? Does that mean that you *can't* fall in love ?

"Male" Yuu

"MALE" YUU-KUN

The only times in the story that 'male' Yuu-kun is shown is when Shizuku is looking at a picture of him on her iphone, and when she is in is some sort of suspended animation, when time and space seemingly come to a stop, and she recalls a flashback about him when she first met him right after an accidental bicycle incident between the two of them. 'Male' Yuu-kun is exceedingly "tall, dark, and handsome", at least Shizuku thinks so. He has jet black hair, an angular face with a pointed chin. He has, surprisingly, anime girl eyes, although slightly horizontally oval. He is always shown wearing the male school uniform, resembling a high-collared military uniform.

Throughout high school, Yuu-kun was very popular both with the boys, and with the girls, although he was not that much affected by romantic inclinations with the girls. Into their high school years, Yuu-kun had masqueraded as a male, maintaining their male appearance even though, has they state, their maleness was 'slowly crumbling away from the inside out'. When his transition from male to female began, Yuu-kun was only an empty shell of his male self, both physically and mentally, therefore, the transition went rather swiftly. Female Yuu-chan retains some of her former male characteristics, which actually made her all the more attractive, giving her a hybrid and very erotic female appearance.
Story Arc 2: Sixth Grade

STORY ARC 2: SIXTH GRADE

(Story Note---The entirety of this Story Arc is a flashback to when Makoto was in sixth grade, and then enters middle school. The story shows how they became aware of what it means to be a male to female transgender person. It also shows how Yuuko, Makoto's childhood friend, came to understand her own personal gender situation, as well as other gender related concepts.)

**L \* G \* B \* T**

Those letters were emblazoned in huge script across the blackboard one day, in the sixth grade at school. Makoto was in the class that day, and remembers that this was the first time that they were to learn about such a subject, and they were shocked. At the end of the sex and gender course, all of their questions had been answered. Questions such as, Why girls got to wear cute, pretty girl clothes, when boys could only wear drab, ugly boy clothes? Why Makoto was so embarrassed, and always kept their naked chest covered, when they had to change into athletic clothes for PE class? And why Makoto always kept a towel covering the front of their naked body when they were in the boy's shower and locker facilities? Yeah, that, too! All these actions that they took could be summed up in a single word, well a single phrase---

I'M A MALE TO FEMALE TRANSGENDER PERSON

Sometime after the completion of the sex and gender course at school, finds Makoto at Yuuko's house, in her bedroom. They had been childhood friends from way back in kindergarten. Makoto was explaining everything that they learned in the school course. Yuuko is a bit puzzled, asking Makoto why they are recounting all of this right now ? Yuuko gave the impression to Makoto that they, Yuuko, already knew everything, anyway. This day finds Makoto dressed as a typical boy in a shirt and pants, and Yuuko dressed resembling a typical girl, in a shirt and a short skirt. Yuuko makes a simple, yet profound statement to Makoto---

" Actually, I'm not really a girl. "

Yuuko apparently understands themselves very well.

But by the time that Makoto was 14 years old and had entered middle school, they became confused, and lost their gender understanding of themselves. They still knew that they wanted to live in the form and substance of a woman. However, they were content to live in their body structure of that of an atomically correct male, and had no desire to transition to anything, or change their physical body to resemble a female. On one hand, Makoto's personality could be characterized as overtly feminine, but on the other hand, they *did not* have thoughts where they believed that they 'were not male', either. Yuuko-chan then asked Makoto if that feeling of theirs makes them 'bigender' ? Yuuko further tells Makoto that how one dresses (Gender Expression), does not necessarily define one's correct gender (Gender Identity).

Really, Yuuko knew everything about gender and sex.

Haruna

HARUNA AKA HARU-CHAN

Haruna is one of the school's adult administration staff. She is well liked by just about all the students, male and female alike. Haruna is the one who brought Shinya from the hospital to the school dormitory, but told him very little about what happened to the school and student body while he was gone.
Aishi

AISHI

Aishi attends the same school as Izumi and Yuuki. She is a girl, born a girl. However, she has always been a hard-core tomboy, and for the most part has always worn boy clothes. She has to wear the female sailor suit school uniform at school, but wears boy clothes all the time away from school. Yuuki had seen her at the school's Club Exhibition, a girl seemingly presenting as a boy. Aishi remarked that she is Gender Non-conforming, and as such, does not mind being seen either as a boy, or as a girl who is presenting as a boy. Yuuki invited her to join the proposed GSA Club, and when the club became established and active, was appointed to the membership committee. Aishi also continued to be active in the Archery Club, of which she was already a member.

**Trivia**

In the Japanese language, the first name *Aishi* is feminine, and means that Agape Love is its own purpose, free will, aspiration, and ambition.
Fumiya

FUMIYA

Fumiya is the boy who recognized and correctly deduced that the cute, sexy girl who visited the drug store where he works is the same person as the "male" student that sits at the desk in back of him in the classroom at school. Knowing this, Fumiya than proposes a make-or-break deal with Yuzuru, that Yuzuru go out on a date with him for one day, or he will blackmail Yuzuru about seeing a classmate, supposedly a male student, dressed as a cute teenage girl out in public. At the beginning of the story, Fumiya, who only knows Yuzuru as their perceived birth sex of male, does not know that Yuzuru is actually a male to female transgender teenager, therefore she is presenting themselves out in public as their correct Gender Identity of female. Fumiya, when he comes to know this about Yuzuru, seemingly wants to blackmail her into going out on a one day date with him. This to fulfill a dare put to him by another boy. Not knowing how this date is going to go down, Yuzuru becomes fearful of Fumiya, but she goes ahead with the date anyway. However, Fumiya, as he gets to know Yuzuru ever so closely and personally, comes to have a change of heart regarding Yuzuru, and the two consent to that intimate date after all. They even kiss one another. In fact, Fumiya wants to begin dating Yuzuru on a regular basis, since, as he says, she, the trans girl, makes him scream, **Baby--Light my Fire** !
Myuu-chan

MYUU-CHAN

Myuu-chan is the little alien being that resembles a human female child. Her spaceship crash-landed on Earth during the Welcoming Party at the Kaminomiya Private Academy. Now presumably stranded on Earth, she has taken the Japanese name of "Myuu-chan", and is being taken care of by the Academy, specifically Haru-chan. The Academy seems to want to keep the landing of an alien on Earth as quiet as possible, for whatever unknown reason. Myuu-chan, despite her looks, is possibility older than her outward appearance. Plus, her age in Earth years would be hard to determine, given that she comes from another solar system with different time values. However, one possibility is that Myuu-chan is actually a child of her species who was put on a spaceship, shot out into space toward the Earth's solar system, for the sole purpose that it was determined that she should be abandoned for whatever unknown reason. Another possibility would be that although behaving like a human female child, Myuu-chan would seem to have been intelligent enough, and sporting a scientific background, to pilot a spaceship, no small feat in and of itself. That, and she seems to have picked up on learning and understanding how to communicate in the Japanese language in a very short period of time. Although Myuu-chan arrived in the ship completely unclothed, Haru-chan has dressed her in a little girl's white hoodie dress, to match her white hair, white eye color of her iris, and pale, translucent white skin. At the last chapter of the story, Myuu-chan goes through a rather quick puberty, and emerges resembling a typical human female teenager.

## Trivia

In the Japanese language, the first name "Myuu" can be both feminine and masculine, and means the beautiful evening, beginning with a beautiful sunset. (The name "Myuu' is an very adult name, rarely applied to children.)
Satori Iwaoka

SATORI IWAOKA (PREFERS THE NAME SAC-CHAN)

Sac-chan is a trans woman who is the owner and principal chef of the Question Cafe. She is the older sibling of Tetsu Iwaoka.

First Time Going Out, But Only to the Front Door

MAIDEN TO THE MAX

4KOMA OMAKE EXTRAS

PANEL 5: FIRST TIME GOING OUT, BUT ONLY TO THE FRONT DOOR (THE CONCLUSION OF THE OMAKE)

After Hana-chan's makeover of Nozomu, including presenting her with proper girl's underwear, and a pretty, attractive new dress to wear, Hana-chan leaves to go do something else. Nozomu eventually decides to go out in public as her authentic self, that of a Trans Girl, although it will only be a walk around the block.

\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_

As with many Trans Girls, Nozomu is filled with fear and trepidation about showing herself out in public for the very first time as their authentic self of that of a typical teenage girl. She stands at the front door, uneasy and unsure of what to do. Eventually, however, as with so many other Trans Girls, her desire to be seen and known as their correct Gender Identity of that of a female, will attack and override any troubles or qualms about going out in public. "Love throws fear outside" (Ancient Wise Proverb) ! Nozomu reaches that 'tipping point', decides to go out regardless of the consequences, and grasps the door knob, ready to open it and step out into a "Whole 'Nother World" !

\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_

Nozomu swings open the door, taking her first step out into the 'Brave New World'. However, she is immediately stopped by Hana-chan's Dad standing on the front porch, ready to knock on the front door. He only wants to know if Hana-chan is still in Nozomu's bedroom ? (She is not, she already left.)

\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_

Whether she knows it or not, Nozomu now passes a major milestone in her transition from male to female. Hana-chan's Dad has seen 'male' Nozomu many, many times over the years of the friendship with Hana-chan. But today, he does not immediately recognize who this cute, adorable teenage girl is at the front door. Who is she, and why is she in Nozomu's home ? A cousin, perhaps ? Admittedly, at this time and place, Nozomu is passing the threshold of being seen as a real teenage girl. Only after a short while does Hana-chan's Dad hazard a guess as to who this pretty girl might be ! NOZOMU !!! That has to be a Gold Medal accomplishment in any Trans Girl's book of the Chronicle of their Personal Transition ! Yet, back in her bedroom, too much excitement for Nozomu causes her to postpone her venture out in public until another time and day.

Kai-kun/Umi

KAI-KUN (MALE MODE)

UMI SAKAKI (KAI MASQUERADING AS A FEMALE)

Kai-kun works at *My Angel* Café as a waiter. He is a trans man, meaning that he was born perceived as a female, but their correct Gender Identity is male. He is almost fully transitioned to male, both at work in the Café, and at school, and out in public.
Nagisa/Nagi

NAGISA MINAKAMI

NAGISA-CHAN (FEMALE MODE)

NAGI-KUN (MALE MODE---SEE BELOW)

Nagisa-chan is a Bigender Person. That means they change back and forth between female and male Gender Identities and expressions, plus changing into anatomically correct physical bodies, with no middle ground whatsoever. Nagisa-chan has been this way from birth, as she was born with a genetic variation and mutation, called "T.S.S.". Her transformations are somewhat hard to control, as they happen when circumstances and situations cause certain feelings and emotions to be heightened and activated. The transformation takes only a few moments to happen, and Nagisa seems to be surrounded by translucent digital instructions in the form of ribbons, which conceal her from view. When in female mode, she takes the name Nagisa-chan.

Nagisa/Nagi attends the same school as Ryou/Ryounosuke, another student who is Bigender. In fact, the school administration has placed them together as roommates, and has them occupy a room that is in a separate building from all the other dormitories. That seems to be discriminatory on the part of the school administration, however, the school does allow the two Bigender students to wear either male or female school uniforms as needed, and to attend classes as either gender, as needed.
\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_

NAGI-KUN (MALE MODE)

From time to time, Nagisa-chan transforms and takes on a male identity and expression. The times of transformation are difficult to control, but are tied to major emotional impacts and upsets. When in male mode, he uses the name, Nagi-kun.
Tao (formerly Kanae)

TAO

(FORMERLY KNOWN AS KANAE)

When the siblings change places, Kanae adopts the name "Tao Nozomu", and begins presenting as a boy, with a male Gender Expression. They do this out of regard for their older sibling, who they found out has already transformed into an anatomically correct girl. More so, their sibling has had their first period, as a girl normally does. Tao (formerly Kanae) makes a supreme effort to help her older sibling, by 'changing places' within the family arrangement, as well as at school. They were such a tomboy anyway, so the change of positions does not affect them all that much.
My Big Brother

THE BIG BROTHER

The Big Brother in the story has always routinely suspected that his younger sibling was a girl, and not as the boy that they were perceived as born as. He would dress Kaede in little girl's dresses and clothing. Yet, Kaede never did put up much of a protest; it seemed that she was happy to be seen as a little girl. Subsequently, Big Brother had promised Kaede early on that the two of them would 'marry' one another. He even bought a little girl's party dress that looked like a white wedding dress for Kaede. When the both of them were teenagers, on a whim, Big Brother gives the 'wedding dress' to Kaede. It is a perfect fit. Although they both know that they can't ever legally marry, nevertheless, Big Brother says that they will in the future, somehow, make good on his promise to Kaede to 'marry' her.

(Big Brother's first name is never told in the short story.)
Gyaru Gal

Gyaru Gal

Gyaru is a Japanese transliteration of the English slang word "gal", meaning 'girl' in the sense of a young teenage girl. Gyaru is a description of many people who follow many types of Japanese Street Fashion, but can also refer to a single kind of street fashion, described below. This Gyaru fashion is typically characterized by having brown-tinted or tanned skin (as in not their natural skin color), heavily bleached or dyed hair (mostly shades of dark brown all the way to bleach blonde or pink), highly decorated nails, and very dramatic makeup. The makeup style typically consists of dark eyeliner and fake eyelashes used in ways intended to make eyes appear larger (so as to look like anime and manga girls), as well as contouring the face for a slimming effect. The choice of fashion for clothing is typically that of casual, summer oriented clothing, as in wearing a sailor suit or a short-sleeve top and a regular or pleated mini-skirt worn with leg warmers. Skirts are typically so short that one can catch glimpses of her panties from time to time. Hair is many times worn in exaggerated, sexy twin tails, or worn with huge, colorful bows or ribbons. The entire clothing theme is to give a fun, attractive, yet provocative and erotic look.

Little Sister Kaede

KAEDE, THE LITTLE SISTER

Kaede is the younger sibling, born perceived as a boy. However, early on Kaede realized that they were a girl inside of a boy, a trans girl. Her Big Brother, from the earliest times, would dress Kaede in little girl's clothing, yet that is something that Kaede would want, anyway.

## Trivia

In the Japanese language, the first name Kaede is feminine, and means a maple tree.
Chapter 17: I Won't Let You Down

I AM MY OWN SELF

I WON'T LET YOU DOWN

CHAPTER 17 OF THE CHINESE MANHUA

At mid-morning, the Student Council President has all the student athletes assemble on the outdoor track, as well as having the spectators seated in the bleachers. He gives out some timely advice to all, then declares the Sports Competition and Festival to be officially open. Soon, a couple of events are set up and get started, with the cheerleaders already knowing which events they are assigned to cheer at.

Just after noontime, the Class Representative finds Jin, and the other boys, to remind them that the 10K (6.6 miles) event is coming up soon. He tells Jin to go and warm up, including stretching and conditioning, before lining up at the starting line. A somewhat over-confident Jin kinda 'blows it off', slapping his chest and telling the Class Rep that the run will be 'no problem', just leave it to me ! Yet Jin does, after the fact, a cursory warm up, then goes over to the edge of the bleachers to sit and 'eyeball' the cheerleaders nearby, before he is called to his event.

The cheerleaders were assigned to cheer the 10K, as it was one of the longer runs. When the first announcement is made to begin assembling for the 10K, Jin gets up and goes over to Yulan, and in a sly, coy, provocative manner, winks at Yulan. He then simply states; "Cheer for ***me***, will ya !?!" For her part, Yulan erotically blushes with sudden embarrassment, yet silently nods her head in a 'yes' gesture. Yulan then barely squeaks out a soft, " .... okay .... ". Both quietly stare at one another, until Peony calls for Yulan to line up on the sidelines with the other cheerleaders, in the special roped-off cheerleader section. Yulan turns to go, as Jin's heart unexpectedly flutters, this by noticing Yulan's pleated cheerleader mini-skirt tantilizingly sway side to side as she walks away.

On the track, at the starting line, four boys begin to assume their starting positions. A dark brown haired boy is in the outside starting lane, two boys are in the middle lanes, a beige haired boy and Jin, with a blonde boy with spiky hair is in the inside lane. "On your mark .... get set .... **BANG**, as the starting gun goes off. Immediately, Jin sprints to take the lead in the first go-round of the track. As he runs by the crowd, he sees Yulan, as pretty as ever, and noticing her spurs him onward with confidence and a winning attitude. As the laps continue to mount up, each time Jin passes by the cheerleaders section, cheers go up, and Jin promises himself that, "I won't let you down, my precious Yulan !"

Kakeru, the Miracle Girl

MIRACLE GIRL KAKERU

MIRACLE GIRL OF THE NORTH (NEWLY APPOINTED)

When an energy ball of "Girl Power" hit Sho Kazaana, it somehow sensed that Sho was born a boy, but had a female Gender Identity. Hence, the Girl Power transformed the boy Sho, into the Miracle Girl Kakeru. It was soon found out by Kakeru that after her Henshin (Transformation Sequence), she was an anatomically correct girl ! She also learned that when she powers up, she will be wearing her own particular, unique Battle Maiden costume, done in a Lolita fasion style with mostly shades of pink. However, just because Kakeru is dressed as a Battle Maiden, does not mean that she can fight like a typical Battle Maiden. Kakeru quickly realizes that she has to learn 'all things feminine' to be able to access and manipulate the Girl Power. Kakeru also comes to know of other girls who are like her, and begins spending time with them at their Hideout location. She meets and gets to know as friends the Girls of the West, South, and East. Rather suddenly, given that Kakeru has had no formal training, she is appointed the Girl of the North, as the previous Girl of the North had just died in battle with a monster. So, Kakeru's job will be to detect, locate, fight with, and destroy the monsters who have come to Earth to wreak havoc and destruction upon humankind.

Sho always had a desire to be a Hero. So Kakeru was a 'shoe-in' to become a heroine as a Miracle Girl. Yet, Kakeru's instructor and mentor, Rin, informs her that she has to learn how to 'fight like a girl'. This because fighting masculine style, all violent, bloody, and depraved, will only restrict her access to Girl Power, making Kakeru weak and ineffective in battle. To get stronger, Kakeru has to do learn how to do all things typical of females, both on the battlefield, as well as during ordinary times. Only by doing this, will boost her use of the Power, and allow her to acquire more and more of it. The more that Kakeru learns and implements her training that benefits her heroine life, the more she realizes that her destiny all along was, due to her having a female Gender Identity, to become a mature, level-headed, responsible female adult, and take her place as a defender of all the oppressed and downtrodden humans.

"Male" Minoro

"MALE" MINORO

Minoro was born perceived as a male. Throughout his childhood, he knew inside that he was somehow different, but could not quite put his finger on it. Not knowing what this unusual gender feeling was, he decided to suppress it by doing and behaving with all sorts of all things male and masculine. Male Minoro became a real character, a prankster, a risk-taker, an adventurer, an all around fun guy to be with. He met Makoto when they were both children, and they have been fast friends ever since, although Makoto was not as bold and outspoken as Minoro tended to be. After Minoro entered puberty, the strange feeling in his heart and spirit became more pronounced. However, he only continued on with is happy-go-lucky life, ignoring the feeling as he had done all along. Minoro and Makoto joined the local soccer team together, and played together on the team, and became the team's valued players.

Minoro knew that he would eventually go through a Metamorphosis, after all, everyone did at some time during their teenage years. However, his gender feelings were sort of an unknown factor. Minoro did not give much thinking or concern about that, as they always thought that the would come out of the Metamorphosis as a guy anyway. Maybe the strange feelings would be gone by then ! Yet the Metamorphosis 'knew what it was doing', therefore, when Minoro found out that they had been transformed into a girl, it did not come as a complete and abject surprise. It took about a day for Minoro to come to terms with the fact that they were a female now, but they took it 'with a grain of salt', and continued to live their life on their own terms, and to enjoy life as a girl. After all, she thought, girls can be fun and adventurous, too !

OMAKE 6.5

Thanks to Mom, plus the companion Miracle Girls, Sho/Kakeru has a rather extensive collection of cute, adorable girl's clothing. As part of his Special Girl Training, every day after school, Sho will come home and immediately change into a girl's outfit, and stay dressed as a girl for the rest of the evening. Plus on many weekend days, he dresses in the morning in girl's clothing, and spends the rest of the day as a girl. Both Mom and Sora, the sister, are delighted that Sho is gradually becoming a girl. And every time Sho does this, they can feel that their female personality is strengthened, and that translates into more Girl Power being made available for when Sho becomes Miracle Girl Kakeru.

Osananajimi's Secret

MAIDEN TO THE MAX

4KOMA OMAKE EXTRAS

Panel 2: Osananajimi's Secret

Fourteen-year-old Hana-chan is a cisgender girl who has been Nozomu's childhood friend ever since kindergarten. They would do everything together. Although knowing that Nozomu was born perceived as a boy, Hana-chan early on had come to know that her childhood friend is actually a real girl inside. Hana-chan is okay with that, and in fact, has always encouraged Nozomu to present as a girl. This would include helping Nozomu with her girl's clothing choices. Having her body go through puberty and develop early in her tween years, Hana-chan already has an adult-like body shape, with already established boobs.

\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_

It used to be that Nozomu would dress as a girl only at home, or at Hana-chan's home. Yet, lately, Nozomu, without telling anyone, including Hana, that she had been going out in public dressed and presenting herself as her correct gender of female. The first time that Nozomu went out, she drew unwanted attention from an adult male pervert, but was saved from that bad situation by a male college student. When this became known to Hana-chan, she became concerned about Nozomu's female safety.

\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_

Secretly following Nozomu one day, Hana-chan learned how Nozomu would prepare herself for going out in public. Horror of horrors, Nozomu changes in a men's public toilet ! Isn't that kind of risky ?

\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_

So this is how Hana-chan found out about Nozomu's 'extracurricular' activites ! And to add 'insult to injury', Hana-chan sees and believes for herself that Nozomu is way cuter, more attractive, and so much more adorable than any other girl that she knows, including herself !

Jun's male school uniform

JUN'S MALE SCHOOL UNIFORM

Jun's correct Gender Identity is male. On the days when his physical sex matches his male Gender Identity, he wears the male school uniform. It consists of a crisp, white dress shirt, worn with a narrow, dark-colored tie. There is a pocket over the left chest area. Below are dark-colored dress pants. However, Jun should really tuck in his shirt into his pants, as that would make the school uniform look much better. Worn properly, the school uniform makes Jun look mature, level-headed, and very handsome. Both Jun and Karou attend the same high school.

Marika Aoki

MARIKA AOKI

Marika was an only child, and was raised by a single parent Mother. Marika knew from a very early age that she was a girl inside, despite having a boy's body. Early on, she was quick to notice that other boys wore t-shirts and shorts, but other girls wore dresses. Therefore, as a young child, Marika begged her Mother to let her wear dresses. Mom was unwilling, but finally allowed Marika to wear dresses at home. Mom was seemingly unconcerned about Marika being a girl inside, as she would tell her offspring that she loved them as a boy. About the time Marika began kindergarten or first grade, she wanted to wear her dresses to school, something that was prohibited by Mother and the school system. After many tears and anguish, Marika was forced to wear boy's shorts and shirts to school, but could wear dresses at home. Marika was registered at school as a male student, with that designation following and haunting her all the way through high school.

By her nature, Marika was a shy, unassuming, pleasant person at school. Yet, although not doing anything to cause disturbance, she nevertheless was adamant about being a girl. While in high school, Marika joined a cross-dressers social media to, as she said, 'find out if anyone else is like me'. She did meet two others at a restaurant who also were on the website, but neither one was a trans girl like herself, as they had male gender identities, and cross-dressed for differing reasons. Eventually, in high school, Marika was able to obtain permission from the school administration to begin wearing the female school uniform to school. However, she was still listed as a male on her birth registry and on the school's admission records. Marika had to begin transitioning to her correct Gender Identity of a female all by herself. Yet her friends, especially a cisgender girl named Akane, were encouraging to her and offered advice on how to handle social and emotional problems.

Romance had always been a tricky situation for Marika. She had romantic feelings for Parou, but Parou, who was born a male, was romantically attracted only to other boys. Ryou, also born a male, did a Love Confession to Marika, but she was not particularly interested in him, and he took that as a decline. Yet, Marika and Ryou remained close and personal friends way into adulthood. By the time Marika graduates from high school, she had transitioned as much as she could under her trying circumstances, and had become a mature, well-adjusted teenage girl. She stated to her friends that she wants to enter the work force after high school, and work in an office as a successful female business professional.

## Trivia

In the Japanese language, the first name "Marika" is feminine, and means a child of the sea, at home in the ocean.

Jun's Birth Sex

JUN'S PERCEIVED BIRTH SEX

Jun was born perceived as a female, but knew from early on that her correct Gender Identity was male. Jun grew up manifesting the supposedly thought of as female-centered personality traits of mildness, kindness, compassion, contentment, and self-motivation. When Jun discovered the genetic malady that causes them to change physical sex every 24 hours, Jun would 'roll with the punches', meaning that at least every other 24 hours, Jun would have a matching male Gender Identity, and male physical sex. Jun's personality traits did not change very much, with her retaining just about all of the good traits that they were raised with as a perceived female. And other than having big boobs as a perceived female, and a flat chest as a male, Jun's physical appearance did not change that much either.
