Louisa May Alcott May Have Been a Closeted Trans Man

TL;DR: Louisa May Alcott may have been a closeted trans man with gender dysphoria and there is strong evidence in their writings to demonstrate this. Author and journalist Peyton Thomas did the research and tweeted this thread about it. Peyton is the author of the Kirkus-starred novel “Both Sides Now” and a freelance journalist with bylines in Pitchfork, Billboard, and Vanity Fair. He also hosts Jo’s Boys, a podcast about Little Women and the novel’s unsung queer and trans legacy. Here is the thread:
