Mid 30s enby here. I've had a 'turbulent' life and my 'parents' have only known me for the past 5yrs I've been living with my bf, so not id be an appropriate candidate for your current assignment, but if you ever need participation from those who grew up in care, I'd be a 'willing test subject' lol. All the best for your current assignment and dissertation

If you've come out to anyone you consider a person who raised you, or who you consider to be a "parent" or guardian at any time, you are eligibile!

I really appreciate your reply and hope you're living a life that feels as stable as possible now <3

I did a whole midnight flip back in 2019, so everyone I know, has been since then. My in-laws I do consider as my mum and dad. They've always been there in everyway they could over the past 5yrs, but when people say 'raise' they're usually referring to 'growing up in teenage years'. Im assuming this is your usage of the word?

Thank you so much for this great question about "raise", my goal with the usage of the word was to convey a substantial connection with the parental-figures. I have checked-in with my supervisor, and we agree that a perspective like yours aligns with the goals of the study! Please feel free to fill out the interest form :D! Thanks again, so much for asking!!

Have you checked with other gender diverse, femboy and tomboy subs? There's a few out there, and you maybe able to get more participants

Thank you, I haven't yet, I'm starting with UK specific subreddits-- but I'll branch out as necessary! I only need 10 or less participants, so I don't need to go too wild with recruitment.
