Marcus and I had a long talk today about my sexuality. Marcus (who identifies as trans) thinks I may be transgendered as well. It's hard for me to fathom it still, but I agree with him. I know in my first post I identified as gender queer. But being trans has been a part of me since 2007. When I came out as trans to my family in 2008, they said it was a phase and even got angry at me. So I suppressed the feelings. I don't like causing conflict or drama, so I forced myself to try to look feminine. I went to the store with Marcus yesterday and bought some men's clothes. When I got home I showed them to my family and they said "So you're dressing like a boy now?" My answer was a simple "Yes." and left it at that. Luckily there wasn't any anger or tension from them. I'm thinking it may be safe to tell them I'm trans, again. Possibly in my appointment with my psychiatrist. I feel safe there. How should I tell them? This is harder than anything I've ever had to tell them. I know they won't disown me, but I want them to understand where I'm coming from. This goes beyond wearing men's clothes. I'm absolutely disgusted with my woman parts. As far as I'm concerned, they're invisible yet obvious (I'm big chested). It's extremely difficult for me to pass as a man. It devastates me :(.
Marcus told me reassuring things. He said he'll support me through this and won't shun me an will always love me. I am one lucky man.
