Look I did this kind of... when I was 15. This was in the early 2000s and you were hard pressed to find out and proud gay folks let alone a trans kid at school. I was masculine somewhat and was goth-ish a bit before the emo scene exploded and I rejected it. I was experimenting with the fluidity of black clothes and liked guys wearing eyeliner. I would say I felt like a gay man in a woman's body. I wondered what it would be like to be a man because sometimes being a woman just sucks.

I grew out of this as I learned to embrace my body, gender and sexuality. I am not defined by those things but they are part of myself I can't change.

I can't make anyone love or accept me but I can love and accept myself. When I did that I discovered people who liked me as I was.

Now, I am a happy mom to a girl. She can be who she wants. She doesn't have to become a boy to have freedom in her life. That's what I'm fighting for!
