i never connected with people so ive grown up without friends/allies,i cant really imagine how a school reunion woud go,itd be people saying how great they are and how successful their lives have been,and then theres me-the severely autistic trans man who has 24 hour 2:1 care,wears a padded helmet,still wears nappies and industrial strength ear defenders and has no life.
id never attend a school meet up unless it was my special high school,id have to explain the transgender side of me for one thing,i was trans even as a toddler,so the educated ones will probably say 'i knew there was always something different',but the less educated ones will still see me as gay and a tom boy-something i was badly bullied for.
