Had an exposition over the weekend and it was amazing to see all the different perspectives, and made new contacts. I'm currently secretly living in my atelier so I really need contacts to find a better living situation, so that was a relief. Also my aunt and uncle were there and they were the last people I hadn't come out to yet, because I love them but they can be very conservative at times. But well, it was kinda hard to hide considering that my new name was written on the flyers and that I was wearing my makeup. I can't express how happy and relieved I am that they are completely supportive!
That's great news! Sometimes I think things are better without a 'conversation' if you know what I mean. They can see you're happy as you are and you don't necessarily have to put pressure on yourself to explain anything.
Ya it was like that. I really hate it when people start asking about genitalia.
In this case it was more emotionally validating from their side, and we agreed we can talk more about it in detail another time because it doesn't matter so much.
What's funny is that I prepared really a lot to talk with them, an prepared materials and stuff. But then it went like this.
