Queery: Terra Moore
By Joey DiGuglielmo on October 27, 2011
http://www.washingtonblade.com/2011/10/27/queery-terra-moore/Life is a process for everyone of course, but especially for Terra Moore, a 24-year-old Upper Marlboro, Md., resident who is working to figure out her life's next chapter.
Moore, who's transgender, started her outward transition in 2005. She'd dropped out of high school a couple years before. Endless speculation about her personal life pressured her to come out first as bi, then gay before finally accepting herself as a trans woman.
"I attempted to try bi just to admit something and be left alone," she says. "That worked to a degree and people became kind of not quite as needy to know. But then I finally said I'm gay and ended up leaving school. It just wasn't working for me and then I started to transition."
