I'm a fruit, queer, trans M-F, I wear dresses and skirts when I go out. I have large breasts. I was also born male.
When I visit family I go as a Male. Which is not easy to pull off at this point. Most of my family didn't even notice the changes in me and where surprised I wasn't a Heterosexual male, when I was outed. The reason is I do not act like the stereotype.
I've gone to a gay bar 3 times in my life I'm 41. I have gone to a tranny/queen bar of them. I dress Gothic more often than anything, if I go out it's to the Gothic industrial clubs. Oh and I don't even act the Gothic Stereotype most think I'm more the Skater/Punk rocker/D&D Nerd type of person, even dressed female my friends don't think of me as queer. But that is because I am just me, and nothing else.
