The moment when I changed my Inkling gender in Splatoon from boy to girl was such an amazing feeling that I wish I could experience 1000 times over.

I think that moment is just a good representation of what I felt like back then. Even though I wanted to play as a girl Inkling for the longest time, I had a fear of being judged for it because I felt like I needed to meet society's expectations of "being a boy"

I had the same experience with changing the gender of my Pokemon Go avatar. I might have happy cried a little bit.

I chose the girl octoling because the boy octoling is ugly

I remember making a female octoling when the DLC came out, then proceeded to get a wave of euphoria every time I played as her, and for some reason it didn’t cross my mind that I might not be cis.
