  • pop music. I liked Spice Girls and Britney Spears and N’Sync and shit like that when I was very young and then it became very clear that as a “boy” it would be gay to enjoy any music that didn’t have guitars in it or whatever. it wasn’t until I was in my early 20s that I realized that there was a lot of really forward-thinking experimental pop music and started getting into artists like SOPHIE

    also animated movies & shows in general. I never watched Avatar: The Last Airbender when it aired because I was like 13 when it came out, and I was over Nickelodeon and only wanted to watch serious movies and shows for adults. I still haven’t seen Ratatouille for the same reason. I thought I was too mature for cartoons when in fact I wasn’t mature enough to realize animation could be enjoyed by all ages.

    I actually had the opposite experience with Pokemon where I realized I never actually liked it in the first place, it just happened to be really popular when I was a kid and hadn’t formed my own interests yet.
