I Came Out Around 25 Publicly.

I Came Out Around 25 Publicly.

I Absolutely Believe In Assimilation. I Don't Believe I'm Any Different From Straight People. My Wants And Needs Are The Same As Theirs. I Don't Look At Sexual Orientation As That Big Of A Deal. It's Just An Orientation.

What Mom Cares About Most Is That I'm Happy, Healthy And Enjoying My Life.

So When I Was About 13 Or 14, I Realized I Was Attracted To Women And Then Made The Assumption That I Was A Lesbian, And Didn't Realize That That Wasn't The Case. It Was The Fact That I Was A Man And A Heterosexual Man. The Issue Wasn't My Sexual Orientation, But Rather My Gender Identity.

Around 2001, I Started Analyzing Lesbians. I Started To Realize That Even Really Butch-acting Or -dressing Women Still Had A Strong Female Identity That I Never Had.
