    Well...A month ago I was at the supermarket with my mother. It was just the two of us and I had the sudden urge to ask my mother a question. "Have you ever felt like a different gender?" was what I was going to ask. I felt stupid then, and now, for thinking about that question. I was going to then ask her how she would feel if I were/felt like a different gender...I never asked the question or told her. I was shaking and felt sick, dizzy too.

    Fast forward to today...Kinda. A week ago my older brother, 17 turning 18 soon, had said I was transgender(He used it as an insult). During that week I went to a convention and cosplayed as two male characters on the two days I went. Both times when I cosplayed, my brother said I was becoming a boy and "Look, its a boy!" as a 'joke'.

    I do know that genderfluid is an umbrella term. However, whe I questioned my brother about "Why do you think I'm transgender?" he replied "Oh,I can tell." so that freaked me out. I almost told my brother.

    For months I've been thinking of coming out, but..maybe when I'm older? I just want to tell them, but I get too scared, too easily.

    Should I tell them now? I'm almost 14, but I don't know if I should wait until I can support myself financially, and hopefully move away for college.
