As some of you guys know I'm a panual and I've always explained my frustration of how I hated hiding the fact I'm a panual from my family. Most of my friends know I'm a panual though.

Well earlier today my 13 year old brother came home from school and asked me what transgender was. Cause one of his online gamer friends is trans. So I basically explained to him the defination of transgender and all the transition processes people go through. I also explained to him different ualities in the LGBT community and I somehow told him I was panual. I was really hesitant about it at first, but I thought I've come all this way to explain to him the LGBT community I might as well tell him.

Surprisingly he took it really well. He accepted that I was panual and he promised me he wouldn't tell our parents, because we suspect that they're homophobics due to their past behaviour towards the news of my child hood trans friend, etc.

To be honest this is probably the first time I've ever had such a serious talk with my brother. At any other time I would be trying to kill the little bugger.

I guess I'm starting to take the baby steps about coming out. Although I still don't know when I'm going to come out to my parents and the rest of my family. Probably in 1 or 2 years time...
