Thank you everyone. Your support is very important to me now.
Tyler, it was the same with me in high school, everyone thought I was a girl or gay. The school nurse actually called me in for a "hernia" exam without doing any other tests, all she did was feel my balls. I had already dropped out of PE and wasn't involved in any athletic program. Why the hell would they need to check me for a hernia unless it was part of a complete physical? They threw me out of shop class and forced me into home economics where I learned how to cook and sew.
They put up with me because I had to be there and treated me like a "thing" instead of a human being. I had doctors and other medical professionals treating me like a specimen to be observed...I really hate those bastards.
It makes me so angry when I look back and think about how hateful people were then...and now.
...ugh

Gosh, I'm sorry. This topic was supposed to be about something positive but I let the negative get to me again. I keep having to fight this impulse to feel victimized instead of acting empowered.
Being a whiny, victimized bitch is not a feminine trait anyone admires. Yet it is in me. It's all about growing up, whether your a boy or a girl.
