      Kids in American middle school getting written up for not having one of these haircuts, by a teacher that wants you to know how free we all are.

        In primary school I was told I'd have to wear a ponytail if I grew my hair out because I'm AMAB, and I think it's the single biggest factor in delaying my transition. I could have figured this stuff out when I was 10 if I'd been allowed to experiment at my own pace.

          My all-boys high school had a rule that hair couldn't be long enough to touch your shirt collar. Being allowed a ponytail would have been an upgrade if I hadn't just stopped following the rules.
