A while ago, both my mother and my sister asked if I was trans on separate occasions; each time, I dodged the question and let it drop because I wasn't ready to come out yet and didn't really know how to explain myself.
So now I know that I'm going to out myself to them sooner rather than later, and I wonder if I should have then because I'm still not sure how I'll bring it up (my main goal is to transition at school and let them catch on; fairly poor method, probably) or how I'm going to explain it because explaining what, exactly, my gender is I'm not even sure how to do yet.
I don't think they take me seriously already, and I don't want to use "non-binary" for that reason - I've got the firm idea that they'll take it as a form of adolescent rebellion. *Sigh* And then there's asking for top surgery and getting into therapy for that... Not even sure if they'll tell the rest of the family, but that I don't care as much about, provided they don't make a mockery of me.
So, typical trans* worries and a long sort-of rant. *Waves hands* Carry on.
