How do I tell people that the person they have seen for the last 57 years is not the same person that I am??? My sister sees a sister, I feel like a brother... I can trace this back to around 7 years of age... like alot of stuff from that time, things got repressed. This not so much, just not acted on, I've been out as a lesbian since I was 25, but something just never was quite for me. The last year or so I think I've come to terms inside with me ( maybe), but telling ppl about trans feelings when you're younger somehow seems MUCH easier than now....
