Welcome to Gaia! ::

My mom and my aunt constantly make fun of people who aren't straight. ... I am a girl who wants to be a man, but how the hell do I tell them? It hurts becasue i feel like they're making fun of me, but they have no idea.

Sexuality and gender are two different things - but can go hand in hand I imagine.

From the group I've attended, it's thought best to write it down. My current interest came out via paper. It generally allows you to say all that you want to say without interruption - so that they can read all of what you have to say and not just partially hear it.

I happened to have blurted my coming out - having no thoughts on how to arrange it cause I felt in that time was the only time I could say it. My parents are open so it went easily in comparison to what could have happened.

Besides, writing it out, revising, allows you to also help get your thoughts together ow to portray it to the one(s) you want to tell. To make sure you say it the right way you wanted to.
