Story

(This my own personal story)

Well it all started about when I was in 9th grade at my middle school. Now if you know what 9th onwards, your trying to figure out your whole life before you graduate high school (and some don't sometimes.) I start to develop feelings for men and women. I had at that time told one adult I trust was my guidance counselor. He was super supportive and helped me along with everything. Also that same year I had started my first year of day of silence in school. It was hard and even harder when I had to transfer to another school halfway through the day (I did go back to the middle school after I went to the other school, which was a technical school.) Later on, when I was in the next grade, which was in the big high school. I signed up for the LGBT club and later found out about being a thing called "fluid gender" (For those who don't know what it is: Fluid gender is a gender identity best described as a dynamic mix of boy and girl. A person who is Gender Fluid may always feel like a mix of the two traditional genders, but may feel more boy some days, and more girl other days. Being Gender Fluid has nothing to do with which set of genitalia one has, nor their sexual orientation.) So I came up with a 2 name system for myself (Both aren't my real names) which was Nikki/Ash. Since then I have put myself out their for everyone to know what I am and who I am, I put on every profile "I am bisexual & fluid gender."
