Personal Story

- Enough of the Lies -
I'm a sixteen-year old f2m transsexual. My girlfriend and I have been together, completely in secret, for 11 months now. My parents are your classic homophobic Christians. Her parents accept the fact that there are gays out there, but both she and I know that if we came out to them, we'd be separated in an instant. Sure, it's fine for other people to be gay, but God forbid it's their own daughter. Not to mention, they hate me to begin with because she and I "hang out too much." We can't come out at home, we can't come out at school, we live in a small enough town that we can't be open anywhere for fear that someone will see, and everyone will know. We're just longing for the day that we turn eighteen and can finally be together. Together as the loving couple that we are. Our love is forbidden, but we are the star-crossed lovers, met through fate. She's my beautiful Juliet, and I'm her ever-loving Romeo. Love is love; it has no boundaries. When will the world see?
