everyone would just look at me like a man pretending to be a woman. A pervert. I don’t want people to look at me like a disgusting creep :/
On the plus side, it'll help filter out people who probably rather not be friends with anyways. My mom worried about us being ostracized because of having two moms, but I figured anyone who that was enough reason to keep them from wanting to be around me were not worth my time. So I was pretty unashamed about my parents (perhaps I should have respected their privacy a bit more). It is a lot harder to feel that way when its yourself and I can't say much given I still need to come out to some people (and I intend to stay in the eggshell at work), but at least its something I'd like to keep in mind myself.

I know I shouldn't care but :cri: it's still so hard. I'll try to remember that though.
