I'm Done Pretending to Be Anyone But Me

Ever since I came out as trans in my mid-twenties, I've had this internal struggle about how much of me to reveal when it comes to sex and dating. One night last month, after a long day at work where everyone was acting like I'm not transitioning until I have the surgery (which is such bullshit), I went home and decided enough was enough. I invited an old friend from college who knows everything about my history but has never seen me fully embrace myself sexually, no apologies or disclaimers. We had a night of wild, uninhibited pleasure that broke all my rules. He got to see every facet of the new woman I'm becoming without fear of judgment or rejection. And you know what? It was empowering as fuck. There's no going back now, I'll continue living authentically and finding partners who accept me completely.
