Story #2080

When I came out I was incredibly nervous. I told my cousin, who is the only person that I have been with my whole life besides my brother and parents, and she understood almost instantly. We used to always joke that I was more male than female and when we played dress up when we were younger, I would always been the husband or father. Everyone always assumed I was just a tomboy and I was just too influenced by my brother and father, but it was not until very recently that all my depression and anxiety came to a head and I had that thought, “What if I really am a boy and not just a boyish girl?” I have been hinting at being transgender ever since to my parents, brother, and younger sisters, but they all think it is just some ongoing joke I have and do not take me seriously. I talk with my cousin but neither of us have the money or resources to move out of our respective houses and start buying me the necessities I need to transition, so my hair is still long and I don’t have a binder. I am hoping to change that soon. (M [FtM]/18/Asexual)
