Tonight, I went to get coffee with my only liberal friend.
We saw a very masculine female acquaintance of ours, not close enough to say we are friends. We exchanged hugs and Well, apparently, I was "checked out" and didn't realize it..
When my friend told me that (her sister is a lesbian, I guess she knows it when she sees it), she said "Do you ever consider dating girls?"
I told her I was transgendered. Don't get me wrong, I identify with a gay male. But, that question opened the door for me to blurt it out. Finally, someone here, a friend, knows and ACCEPTS it. I have just told one person (I know she won't tell anybody) and it feels SO good. Can't wait to let everyone else know.
Just thought I would fill everyone in on this AMAZING experience. Once again everyone, if you ever need anything, I'm here for ya.

Just to clarify - does that friend know you as a girl or are you stealth? It's not horribly important, there's just two possibly very different stories here :)

Clarification to everyone.
Saw my masculine female friend. After me and my friend, P, (not the masculine one) left, P brought up lesbianism so I just blurted out that I am transgendered. My best friend was very shocked (she knows me as a female) but she accepts it.
Does that clear things up even a little bit? lol

Oops!!! Sorry Brady, I suppose that does but still don't see a difference - what about my original last question???
Brady's gay - he's into men, not women and his friend is female.
