I'm not sure how to answer this exactly. I think the word 'maintain' is throwing me off. My Queerness doesn't require maintenance and neither does my femme-ness.

When I was younger and in my first relationship with an FTM, I had a bit of an identity crisis but it had nothing to do with being perceived as straight and everything to do with him wanting me to BE straight. Obviously, that didn't work out.

I need room to exist as a Queer femme inside the relationship. If I have that, I won't worry about what others outside of the relationship think or say about me and how I present myself.
