So I came out to my sister and this was our conversation.

Hey brothah man!

So you know I'm Trans right?

26 shots o' rum agoJulianna Red
I guess, yeah

25 shots o' rum agoZylphia Lionelle Simone Armstrong
You know what it means, right?

24 shots o' rum agoJulianna Red
Tell me

21 shots o' rum agoZylphia Lionelle Simone Armstrong
It means I don't want to be your brother, but rather your sister. I've never really felt comfortable as a boy (I'm sure you noticed that) and well I have to tell people so that they can learn to accept me, it's like coming out of the closet.
If you want you can go on a forum. I can give you a link.
If you are into forums that is.

What for?

17 shots o' rum agoZylphia Lionelle Simone Armstrong
Eh, discussion, thoughts, and such. I'm on a forum for support really, and to talk to some other trans girls and guys. I know you're accepting and loving though. The forum is really just a place to chat with people, or offer advice.
You know, get a better understanding of what transgender means. : p

Oh, I dunno if I'll go on it. But I'm on my phone right meow

Ah, I see, the forum I am on has some really cool people, and I like to talk to some of them. Also you could offer a lot of the girls advice on how to pass better! You're really good with makeup and clothes, I bet they'd love you.

Alright

12 shots o' rum agoZylphia Lionelle Simone Armstrong
You'll have to sign up and stuff, but I'm sure you could be a big help and in your introduction you can tell them you're my sister.

12 shots o' rum agoJulianna Red
Haha okay

5 shots o' rum agoZylphia Lionelle Simone Armstrong
Sweet, you probably have a few tips for some people they will really appreciate.
: )


I hope she joins.

Now I just need to come out to my brothers, and well I told my mother already.
A couple of my friends, an one of my best is working hard to refer to me as a girl and use Zylphia now.
Ah I'm a lot happier now.

Really pleased for you - but this tickled me, I hope not all your coming out conversations require that much rum .

Sounds like she did it over Facebook. I love Pirate speak too ^_^

Ah, silly me .

Yeah, I wish i could handle that much rum, I can barely handle a couple shots of rum and not be tipsy!
But yeah, my sister has decided to call me by the name "Woman" LOL!

Nice - my brother has just started calling me "sis", it's good, innit?

Yeah, makes me laugh every time though since she said it so bluntly.

Haha well you know you're always gonna be my brother right?

I may change your point of view. You know it really bothers me to be referred to as a boy right?

Asdfghjkl.

lol

I'm just gonna call you woman.

The people who know us well (*especially* the people who know us well) are transitioning with us - they can't change how they see us overnight any more than we're going to change overnight. It's all good, slow change is better than jerky change with reactions.

My sister is very understanding. :3
