I'm a lot like your cousin. I never liked dresses, being a girly-girl, barbies or any of that stuff. My best friends were always guys, I was always outside getting my hands dirty hunting for bugs and digging for arrowheads. Even as an adult, I'm still a pretty masculine woman, but I have never once questioned the fact I am a woman. I've been married for 20-odd years now to the same man.
I thank god every day that I grew up in the 80s/90s before any of this trans stuff went mainstream because I have no doubt the rainbow mafia would have taken advantage of my awkward years to convince me I was actually a boy.
I sincerely hope that your cousin gets the support she needs before she does any irreversible damage to herself. Wishing you both the best, friend.
