Step-by-step explanation:
In this story, it talks about how Walter Dean described his childhood. He was a boy who stuck to the stereotypes in which people thought boys were. They had to play ball and they had to go to the gym. During all of this, Walter doesn't know who he is yet, he makes statements on how since he was a boy, he was different from girls. In the passage he states "almost desperate to fill up those spaces in my life." He wants to fit in, but doesn't know how.
