When did you come out?

I was a little slow on the uptake, not coming out til I was 27. I've made up good time since then. *grin*

i don't really know how did i come out? i consider myself not out but i just can't explain. those people that truly loves me and knows me including my family and a very few circle of friends, knows that i am femme. i never tell that to them face to face but i did not even hide it from them, they just know and feel, and they accepted me and love me more. so when the time comes, i met my butch, there were no questions asked. we were accepted by my family and by her family. when she was sick, my family was with me, my mother would cooked food so i can bring that to her and my sister was with me when my butch was confined in icu, my brother would call me from time to time. When she die, my family was also with me, my mother did come in my butch's wake and funeral. my butch's family is still very attached with me. I think am talkin too much. lol!

i really don't know what coming out means, i did not come out but i did not hide the true me. it's a WHAT YOU SEE WHAT YOU GET thing. and i feel all the love, support and respect from the people that matters to me.

When I was in the first grade, and my guy friends had girlfriends, I didnt understand why none of the girls wanted to be my girlfiend.
The first time I told someone, I was 26.
Since I am butch, I think everybody knew anyway!! LoL
