actually, here's more trans jason todd thoughts
he had some inkling when he was younger but he really understood his feelings when he came to the manor and had the time and freedom to worry about that and not his survival in the streets
he talked about it with dick first, and he gave him the robin costume to help him feel accepted. robin gives him magic and also the means to express his true self
bruce and alfred helped him transition socially and taught him men things like shaving and dressing up and social code even if he was too young for that yet to make him more confident and self-assured and also feel supported
bruce helped him find his new name, he chose it with his family in mind, something they might have liked too, but also one bruce liked. he wanted all of his loved ones to approve of it
talia helped him transition medically, during his years of training she got him doctors and appointments when he asked for it thanks to her network. she also went with him for surgeries
he's super into his looks now, as a kid he was kinda shy about it without even adding the whole dysphoria thing to the plate (robin hiding in his cape my beloved) but now that he's transitioned and has the body he wants and worked for? shamelessly showing off and appreciating it, to everyone it looks like annoying chad behavior but to the ppl who know he's trans it manages to somehow be endearing how much more comfortable he is now, especially if they knew him before
still annoying when he pauses what he's doing to check out his guns and flex in mirrors and glasses
because he is very private, few people know he's trans and he likes it that way, only those who knew him young (bruce, dick, barbara, alfred, ...) and the ones who need to know now or are close enough for it to be relevant/important to tell
and the self-indulgent one: there's a shop in gotham he goes to for his bikes when they need repair where he hangs out with the butch who owns it. they sit around a beer for gossip and book club from time to time
