Has anyone ever had a person turn around and tell them they already knew/kind of suspected after coming out to them? That's what I got from my Nan when I told her. It's actually pretty ironic, when I first came out to her when I was 15 or so, as a lesbian at the time , she thought I was coming out to her as trans, which at the time basically exploded my brain :o And this time telling her she was basically like, yeah I know ??? I asked her how she already came to this conclusion and she told me I've always acted like a guy, more and more as I got older. I think it's actually pretty awesome, but in a way like, woah was I that transparent ???

I had people call me out like that when I was coming out as gay. The trans thing... Some people brought my masculinity up before I identified as trans or considered transitioning. So of course when I came out to them they would say something along the lines of, "Yeah I'm not surprised."
I agree, it is awesome. But I think for every person that see's right through us there is another person who is completely clueless.

I have two friends who I suspect may suspect as much, but I don't really know for certain as I've only come out to one person so far.
