Yep that's the meaning of the song. He loves Tim, whether Tim is a boy or not, he just wishes Tim were a girl so it would be "okay" to love him. It's a social grey-area too where Tim is his closest friend, so he might feel like if he is with Tim he's lost a friend. I remember being like him when I was younger, praying I would wake up a girl, so maybe my best friend would love me, because he said "I would marry you If you were a girl' when we were younger. Not because gay is wrong, but because that's what we were taught as kids.
@@shrewmii And what happened to you? I am gay too and I also fell infatuated for a best friend. It was really painful and when he left and ghosted me, I thought I would genuinely die. But you know, that was 5 years ago, soon to be 6. Almost a decade has passed. I grew up. A part of me stayed there, forever. Wishing that we could be together. But I had to leave him behind, because he was very immature and we would've hurt each other. Things are as they are. I left that tragedy-loving part of me, too. I'm 21 and I've never done anything remotely romantic with any guy, I've never found ***The One***. But I'd like to think that once I find the right guy, we'll be maturely happy. Kissing and you know, sorting it all out. I always wanted to have a romantic story. I always wanted it to feel magical. Truly special. Not lame, not common. One of those stories about the endurance of love and loyalty.
algorithm is so weird, i thought this was filmed recently, it made me weirdly excited thinking people were still being silly and creative like this. i'm sure they still are and i just haven't seen it, but turns out this was filmed when i was a month old. i love this though.

I've been Tim a several times. So many guys said they wished I were a girl. Even one time in highschool we went on camping as a group and the guy I was with, with a sad smile, said "No one will ever love me like you do." He was straight though and I didnt push or do anything, but I guess he could tell.
I met this one guy who really didn't want to come out of the closet, and they hated the fact that they liked me and said that they wished I was a girl. this song in a weird way comforts me
Every time I hear this song I always picture a younger boy, like 12 or so, who is starting to feel romance for the first time towards their best friend and doesn’t understand being gay is a thing so is trying to picture a world where they can be together
This goes so hard. Legit saving this to every playlist I have rn. Crazy that a bunch of different people are being recommended this 16 year-old song all at the same time lmao
dude,, its almost 30!!! this is a fan made vid.. of montreal are great though ,, check out wrath pinned to the mist, the past is a grotesque animal, groenlandic edit and id engager :3
I have very different feelings about this being a transgender man, and my best friend is also trans but she's a trans girl. So yeah i do really wish my Tim was born a girl since she would be happier that way. The thing the song reminds me the most of though in its opening lines is childhood memories of mine... Back when i was a little girl and wanted nothing more than to be someones boyfriend or husband.
"Haha, yeah. It would have made more sense for me to lip sync it, but I thought the dress/beard combination was too good to pass up." I didn't realize I was logged into my friend's account when I wrote that.
never had a Tim as far as i know, but he was my first real friend for the whole 10 momths while i was living in the city. One day we were joking during work, and the thought of "if he was a girl would things be different?" crossed my mind randomly. it came as quickly as it left, and i went on about my day, but it always stuck with me. It was probably a mix of desperation for affection, being in closeted denial, and loneliness, but im still thankful hes my friend to this day :)

This feels like a gay pre-teen, trying to rationalise his feelings for Tim.
