So whilst chatting with my parents about my sister's transition (she's a mtf) my gender issues came up. Since I still haven't talked to a gender therapist and have been able to swing back and forth between male and female I have come out as bi-gendered... for now. At this point in time I think this label is working for me. Though I have to admit I still can't see a future as a woman and while I have a very deep need to transition I keep feeling that now is not the time, so for now bi-gendered it is.
Anyway, this is great in that I'm free to bind, have facial hair and it won't freak everybody out. In fact I was able to ring in the new year with the rest of the family in "guy mode." Hopefully, when/if the time does come to transition this will make it easier on everyone. The more time I spend in "guy mode" the more use to it everyone will get.
So all-in-all it was a great talk. It didn't really feel like coming out since it came about so casually which was awesome.
Anyway, I hope everyone else's new year started off as good as mine (nothing beats ringing in the new year as yourself-
