Trans Women means that I am dealing with crossing over a few gender divides in my identity as female. My birth certificate says male (though, I do have a few questions to ask my parents as a few oddities have appeared since then)... but I've kind of always been a girl. The most male I've been was when I was known as "the crazy lesbian who always wears a strapon to school"... uh yeah, I don't really pass for male. ... gender and sexuality are separate things. My gender is who I am. My sexuality is who I want to have sexy fun time with--or rather who I find myself attracted to having sexy fun time with. I find it irritating that many people think you have to change yourself in order to get into a relationship. Dress a certain way to get guys; dress a certain way to get girls. Honestly, I'd still dress the way I would even if it meant being forever alone. I'd rather be alone and be myself... than to have a relationship built entirely on a foundation and five room house with a finished basement of lies. The gazeebo may or may not also be built of lies... haven't figured it out--but I don't trust that gazeebo all the same. That gazeebo... what is it planning--it has to be not trustworthy, next to this house of lies--what trustworthy gazeebo would be next to this house of lies... But my general annoyance is that people think I dress like this to try to get with others. No, I mostly dress like this because my mother was terrible and I learned how to cloth myself from Tumblr and Pinterest... which are a better Daddy and Mommy than my real ones any day of the week. The other annoyance is the fucking constant suggestions I get on the matters of better getting into people's pants via being dishonest about myself. How about fuck getting into their pants... and just do things my way and whatever pants I find myself in... are whatever pants I find myself in?
