I feel mostly very very similar. I also remember thinking as a I kid that I was a woman in my past life. And that everyone had a mix of “masculine” and “feminine” energy, but I was much more “feminine” energy (I was a kid so this was not influenced by new wave “female goddess energy” TikTok stuff at all, I even hard disagree with most of these types about what feminine and masculine energies even are). But I never fantasied or wished I was a woman. And I know this will sound ridiculous, but I think it’s basically because of Lord of The Rings. I loved Aragorn, Legolas and Sam so so much. To me they represented what was best in men, and I really was inspired by them. Aragorn made me want to forever have shoulder length hair and a beard.
Same for me with LOTR really haha, Legolas specifically inspired me, he was a fierce warrior but wasn't the typical manly strongman, and had great hair too hah
