I think how anyone id's is personal. It isn't something that can be discussed openly on the internet. It is something sacred and personal. Everyone has to go on their own journey in finding out who they are.
One of my nephew's when he was exploring his sexuality and gender, he was in elementary school. He asked me to buy him a tea set for his birthday. So I did. Today he is married, and he has a picture of his tea set with me in it with him. He treasures that photograph. He told his wife that it was me who helped him get thru his journey.
I agree with Hack about this thread. It is very upsetting. It isn't about being true to who you are, or how I am, but how to cut each other down. We already get put down by society, why should we do it to each other here?
