It is truly as if I am a male to female transexual. I like looking like a woman, but I feel like a man inside. I think like a man (stereotyping here, sorry), relate more to my male friends, enjoy stereotypical "male" persuits, and on and on. Yet if you were to meet me on the street you would see a very feminine woman. Almost comically so. It's so confusing!
I've recently began going to a "gay club" (but there's plenty of straights, too) and this is helping more than therapy with this issue. There is such a great atmosphere there and I've danced with all stripes freely. I enjoy not having to "identify" sexually one way or the other. My sexual orientation and gender just doesn't fit into a neat little box. I'm meeting more and more drag queens and male to female trans and I've decided that they understand me best. I look forward to meeting more folks 
Thank you very much for opening up so freely about this Squidge. I really do appreciate it! No one I am close to right now, gay or straight, can understand what the hell I'm talking about with these issues. I'm so glad that you've reached a state of peace about who you are. I see so many people struggle with this
