Hey Pizzelle....sorry if this is a personal question, but is there something in particular that made you realize you were trans?
"It's a little personal, but... I mean, if it helps you with anything, I don't mind discussing it."
"See, uh... I finally got out of my hometown when I went to college. Wasn't anything wrong with it, just... it was real small, and pretty much everyone had the same... beliefs? As a result. Y'know, you grow up in an environment that doesn't get a lotta variety, and you can end up bein' the same flavor as everyone else."
"So, I got to college. I tried a couplea different things in my time off classwork. Uh, there was this... theater group that was holding auditions, and I ended up trying out 'cause why not? They said I was real good at acting and all and said they had a position they were tryin' to fill for some play, but the lines were for a lady. And they asked if I'd like to try pretendin' to be one."
"I said sure, why not, may as well! I practiced my lines for a couple weeks but it didn't reeeally click until we started doin' dress rehearsal. And when they put the makeup on me, and the wig and the outfit, and we started actually readin' all of our lines out loud, uh, that's when... it sorta came together. I liked bein' addressed as 'she' and 'ma'am' and... yeah! That was my realization moment."
