Was having this conversation with some new friends earlier and was curious. When did you guys figure out your sexuality/identity or whatever? Was there a person that helped you or a particular moment or event?

I always had a feeling that my birth gender didn't fit. I remember being a kid freaking out whenever Maury or Dr. Phil would have episodes on trans people and I would recede further and further into the closet. I was about 12-13 when I would have been able to actually explain what was going on in understandable terms.

In college, I finally had enough and decided to do something about it. Once I flopped genders I sorta stopped caring about labels and subscribed to the gender and sexuality philosophy of if it works for me, it works.
