It is all about boundaries. I mean I still have my guy's name on here, because it feels like calling myself by my girl's name (and I do have one, though it took a long time for me to get to her) kind of makes her more real to me than I am really able to cope with right now.

That side of me does feel very strong and I'm not sure how to control it and keep it within bounds so that my male side doesn't suffer. It's a strange dance, and not particularly rational, but the whole of the CDing experience can be like that.

Between me and my SO, we're working on boundaries.. which I take as a very hopeful sign of acceptance. When it comes to names, she says she will not call me anything besides my male name or the pet names she has always used for me. It's a boundary I accept... she has come to understood that for a screen name, I will use a fem name.. that here I am presenting the fem aspect of my personality so that is okay.

And the dance continues.... :)
Don't worry about what other people think, because they don't.
