Liar, Liar, Skivies on Fire!

I'm sorry everyone. I've been lying all this time...

I'm not really transgender, or transsexual!

Yes... I've been wearing the clothing of that gender at the other end of the spectrum for as far back as I can remember. And I've been wishing I could be transported to the other end of the gender spectrum since before I can remember. Oh & yes I love the color pink.

But claiming to be a tranny is just all too simple. It's a convenient hook to hang my insanity on, if you will.

I don't know what's wrong with me. And I'll never know what happened to me that I developed the way I did. Hell, I've never even received a formal diagnosis. They just open the pill cabinet & say: "Okay, which pill do you want? See you again in 3 months..."

Most individuals I've come to know don't consider themselves to have a mental illness. And I wouldn't argue the point. But I just know, in my case, there's been allot more going on than just being a tranny. Don't get me wrong. I like to think of myself as transsexual. I like feeling as though I'm a part of the group. And I do have allot in common with others who are transsexual. But that doesn't make me transsexual.

Thanks for reading my post. I just felt I should finally admit the truth.

Skeezyks.

Trans* is a spectrum. We're all different.

I've heard this song and dance before. A lot of folks worry that they're making it up, or faking for whatever reason, or using it to cope with or cover up some other issue they're dealing with. "I thought I was trans but turns out I'm really not it was something else I'm sorry leaving now", more often than not they come back.

I don't know what all else you're dealing with but I guarantee it's not mutually exclusive with being trans. And if you feel like you want to be part of the community then you are more than welcome.
