You have put into words so much that isn't "allowed" to say but needs to be heard. Oddly enough one thing I think socially awkward (with attached diagnosis or not) young girls need to hear these days is "it's okay to be straight." There is so much noise coming at them from various directions that it makes them fight against their natural instincts. I noticed already when my young adult daughter was back in 6th grade that the girls all started calling themselves insipid things like "demigirl" and "pansexual" in order to avoid the natural awkwardness of starting to notice boys and be noticed by them. Toxic culture run by narcissistic adults has driven these girls insane.
