Well I promise to keep this as short as possible. I have a bad habit of talking people's ears off, but I blame it on my age. All my life I suppose I've known I was gay and recognized that I didn't want to be a girl. I wanted to grow up and be a big military man and have a boat load kids and go on adventures. So instead I decided I was a lesbian at 10 and joined a theatre troop. Then I became the Wizard of Oz. At twelve I was Sweeney Todd. At fifteen I was Mr. Hyde. The older I got the more of a man I became. And I was ashamed. My family made it clear from the start this was not how they raised me, this is not who I am supposed to be. I'm supposed to be some American Irish broad marry a big old boy and have kids all my life. I chose a beautiful girl who said I was the most handsome devil she's ever seen. That was before I cut my hair. Before I even knew what transgender meant. Then I met the world's greatest drag queen.
Now up to date my parents still don't know but they should next week. They've been blind my whole life and its about time to drop the acting and finally be myself. I'm very tired of hiding.
