i thought he already explained why he did it, and why he reveiled his identity! Either way, good joke, though i didnt know if you were male OR female, but then again i also dont remember 3 years of my life! hmmmm, shit i probably slept with a guy and didnt know it. Wait, this is about about Tagrineth aint it... yeah, meany butt, let your parents know that pretending your a girl is worse then telling people the truth about being a guy. The perverts are usually in hot pursuit of the female side of the species!

Wasn't meant as a joke, and I didn't really explain anything, heh.
I went through a long period where I was basically in a school environment that was not capable of accepting my personality, the core of my very being. Very few people in that environment accepted me for any reasons at all... and being a pre/teen, of course, it made for a pretty screwed mindset for me, trying to find some role my personality would 'fit' into. For a long time I did feel like I had a gender identity problem, and felt like my modified role online fit my personality much better... that's why I started the ruse. Then, a relatively short time ago, things changed: I changed schools, met a whole new group of people, and entered an entirely new environment... at first I was somewhat disturbed about it, and for about half a year I went through a rough transition as I couldn't seem to understand how I was suddenly accepted by everyone around me, even to the extent that I identified myself as openly gay (I'm bi) - originally probably in the hopes that I'd alienate a few people. Heh. Anyway, after about 9-12 months of that I eased into the environment and now things are great.
But anyway, that's why I started the ruse and there were two reasons I didn't stop: one, my parents didn't want people online to know anything about the real ME, and two, because I was afraid of what people would think. I was actually probably afraid that I would once again fall under the 'not accepted' category of life.

Then who was that girl you used as an avatar image? Wouldn't your parents be more upset about identity theft?

I used only her image, no identity. And she gave permission. Which is always nice. |
