Ok I'm not fully "out", I suppose
I'm living with my dad, a senior in high school, about to graduate in a month or so
I have never been diagnosed with gender dysphoria or as trans or anything, I've just felt like this since god knows how long, I was still in elementary school when I noticed
I am in a relationship with a girl who doesn't really understand trans and says things like "you're a girl until you have a penis"
I try to understand where she is coming from, I mean I am in the south, she is racist (I'm trying to convince her that is wrong and she is being poisoned by her parents' perception of other races), we know maybe 1 lgbt person irl and that's each other, and we are both constantly being told in the south (except maybe Florida), that it is either illegal to be gay or that if we get hurt because of it (beaten, harassed, raped, refused employment, etc) that the government will not acknowledge it as a issue.
So I deal with the female pronouns and her introducing me as her girlfriend to people at school
I am not as clouded in that sense as she is, and I understand the lies her parents feed us and their other young children
But I'm writing this to say hello..
And to tell about myself
