==Gender dissatisfaction==
From early age M.C. (then named S) showed signs of identifying as a boy. The Crawfords told ''The Atlantic'': "S didn’t want braided hair; S wanted a haircut “like dad’s.” At Halloween, S wanted to be a superhero, but not Wonder Woman. S wanted to use the men’s bathroom and liked to be referred to as a boy. S already tended to be perceived as a boy by strangers, after requesting a buzz cut about a month before the family’s vacation."<ref name="atlantic2014">{{REFnews |title=Should We 'Fix' Intersex Children? |url=https://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2014/07/should-we-fix-intersex-children/373536/ |last=Greenfield |first=Charlotte |coauthors= |publisher=The Atlantic |website=www.theatlantic.com |date=2014-07-08 |accessdate=2020-07-10 |quote=}}</ref>
At age 7, M.C. requested to be allowed to try out "being a boy" during a vacation stay.
