Identity

Life of a Perpetually Single Lesbian.
It was date number 25, maybe number 26. Three years prior, I had moved out of a small town and into a bigger city, not to find someone but I assumed the opportunity would present itself. And three years later, I was not only still looking but I had also started keeping track of how many dates I had gone on with women. The number was close to 25.

So i told myself that next year ( 10th grade ) would be different but i hasn't.

The Way I am
“A Rainbow behind the Clouds” As a person living with this kind of personality and gender preference, I serve as a clown for others. A clown that only used just for fun. A victim of bullying that was driven by tons of criticisms, judgement and hate. This became as the reason why I consider myself as a rainbow behind the clouds. Don't worry this is just the beginning of my story.

I’m a detransitioner. Don’t use me to take rights away from trans people.
It’s hard when your name doesn’t match your face. The lady at the vital records office was bewildered when I showed up wanting a copy of my (female) birth certificate with only a male ID and a pile of court documents to prove my identity. No amount of explaining could clarify the situation. After a half an hour of repeating that I needed a copy of the original certificate so I could change back my name I had tears in my eyes, but she remained convinced I was a trans woman trying to somehow game the system. Six weeks later, I received a stern letter telling me the office couldn’t change the name on the certificate — something I’d never asked to do — without a “compliance stamp”. At this point, I’d already found the original and changed the name, spending $300 to undo what I’d done with such hope a few years before. Sometimes it seems like the misunderstandings, and suspicion, never end.
