Here's my story.  Don't tl;dr me, I think it's pretty cool.  For a little background, I'm a senior in a small christian high school.  This sounds awful, but I live in Connecticut, so these things sort of cancel each other out.  My mother tells me that the house is to be cleaned, so I move my ->-bleeped-<- stash to school to hide in my locker.  Some of my friends found it, but I haven't heard about it from anyone.  It happened early on in the day yesterday, so now it's been several hours of school and no confrontation.  I'm fairly sure that some are in denial.  It's really kind of fun to watch the few that think I don't know that they 'know' that I'm gay.  To make things clear, these guys are my friends-- I've been getting tons of knowing stares.  I'm trying to hint that I know.  I offered to lend someone a tie, saying that there are all kinds of clothes in my locker. 
<br>The only complication is that two queen bee type girls that I was sort of friends with are now acting bitchy.  They think it's hilarious that I've been outed as being 'gay' and don't even know it.  One is a theater type, so she has no excuse for acting like a bitch... she used to be my friend and jesus did she have a lot of gay friends.  The other is the typical I-get-what-I-want-when-I-want-it girl that everyone knows several of in high school.  There was some minor unrelated drama between us today that ended up with a bunch of people siding with me.  Which is nice but also a pain because now they're mad as hell.  Other then these two, everyone in my grade falls into three categories of not giving a damn.  There are the in denial kids, the christian kids (who are legit nice... I'm not a christian or anything---seriously people, a lot of Christians are ->-bleeped-<-s, but twice that many are misunderstood.) , and the typical chill liberal kids that are kind of like 'good for him'.   The only issue is that they all think I'm gay.  No one in my school knows anything about this stuff: as long as you aren't straight, you're gay.  The two girls are kind of disappointed because nothing has come of theirtotally sweet gossip.  <br>
Sorry to write a damn journal entry, but I just need to think things through. 

First; Welcome to the forum, please make yourself familiar with the rules.

"blog post" type venting is perfectly fine.
Also, it seems that "if" your classmates "know" you're "gay" they're being kinda alright about it, which means you're pretty lucky in that department, but that's no guarantee they'd accept you as "trans" though...

If you're smart enough to have figured that out, and used it to bring some sort of balance to your life, then you have nothing to worry about.  Fewer people care about this as time goes by, particularly in the theater department.  Your last year is about halfway done, and the second half is so fast you ain't even going to notice it, then your gone, and out on your own, and it won't matter.
