I want to do this because the times I hung out with my girl(i hate calling her a tgirl because we had many talks about the subject ranging from her childhood to the present. Yes...we did other things than just fucking hahaha). I always had to lie to everybody as to where I was going blah blah blah. Sometimes I wish I could just talk about what I really feel to my friends but instead I have to act completely 'straight' even though I might be feeling different. It's not like I act fem or anything but what I'm talking about is that my opinions about topics have to be 'straight'. My father is very homophobic as this is how mexican culture is. Anyways...I feel you man, that is why were all here in this forum.

At some point one has to become honest about one's opinions even to those close to us. Let's look at this without talking about your girl - would you be ashamed to hold a different opinion about politics from your father or your friends?

Taking things with your girl in mind - does she have the option to lie to her parents and friends? I'm not saying you should do anything or not do anything - but the fear of rejection and ridicule is something every trans women HAS to face. We aren't lucky enough to choose not to... just a thought for you.
