(ANNOUNCEMENT) - I'M TRANSGENDER

Hey guys!

I've done something which I never thought I would ever do. It's been on my mind for so long that I wanted to tell you as you guys have always supported my personal life choices.

Many of you know I'm very androgynous, but here's a confession. I simply have never really been 100% happy about just labelling myself androgynous and as a cross dresser. I just knew there was a deeper meaning in my heart about who i was but i simply had not realised it yet. Until a couple weeks ago...

A couple weeks ago my younger brother who's only 13 asked me the question "Are you transgender?" My brother and I have gotten a lot closer over the past few months and he knows that I'm a panual and he knows how much i love men's clothing so he asked me the question. At the time i told him i don't know, but after he asked me that it began to make me realise who i wanted to be.

Last night i was brave enough to tell my feelings to a group of very close friends of mine from my old high school about who i really was. Of course knowing them they supported me and encouraged me to tell my bestfriends about it. So i did and guess what? I cried like a baby as i heard them supporting me. It just felt so right to call myself a male as i came out to my friends.

I've already gone through the process of asking my friends to no longer call me by my birth name. It's a name I've always hated. I've been telling them that i still prefer to be known by my Korean name Taeyoung, which i sometimes shorten it to Tae.

There are still a few close friends who i wish to tell about me no longer wanting to be a female. So wish me luck. I have yet to talk to my childhood friend who is also transgender, i know he'll have plenty of advice to give me.

It's going to be a long and difficult journey, i know. However i would greatly appreciate it if you guys could support me on my journey.
