No, today I’m here to tell you something about myself. I’ve known since about a year before I started playing FFXI, back in ’04. This is something big, and I’m entrusting you people with it. Of course, by trusting, I mean that I know full well most of you don’t like me, so I’m basically just going public with it in one aspect of my life. I’ve been lying to you all for the entirety of my posting career, so I figure I’ll be honesty for once.
What is this secret? I’m sure you’re all wondering what could be so big that I’ve saved it specifically for my 10k ding. Am I quitting? Nope. Is Jinte gay? Nope, I’m still attracted to women, as I always have been. Am I not actually Theytak on the Siren Server?! I am Theytak, and I do play on the siren server. Am I secretly one of the forums favorite trolls? Could I be anna? Reij? Nope. I’ve thought about it, but I’ve never acted on making a second troll account and using it.
What could it be then? What secret could Jinte be hiding, lying about for all these years?
And now, I’m sure, you’re thinking that no matter what I tell you, it’ll be a lie, because not only is this my 10k ding, but I’m also posting it on a Friday! You can think that if you want, but it’s not the case.
You all know how much I love to ***** with people, which is mostly due to my wonderful childhood. I love to play with words; to say one thing and mean something entirely different; to sound angry when I’m actually laughing hysterically; to sound all depressed and mopey when I really couldn’t care less. That’s my personality, and really has nothing to do with my secret.
To those of you whom I consider closer friends than the rest; nilatai, lolgaxe, bsphil, MDenham, I haven’t told you because until recently, I couldn’t accept it myself. In June, I told a few very close friends, who you may recognize, as well as the leader of my social shell, but beyond them, I’ve not said a word to anyone. I only just told some of my family within this month. Don’t feel bad that I haven’t told you.
To those of you I have nothing but respect for; most of the admins (save vlor), the warrior, monk, and pup forum regulars, and a long list of people whom I don’t want to type out, and even those who I regularly go at it with (vlor, you’re here), I think it’s about time you knew as well.
Mostly, I’m telling you all because it makes me feel better. It also frees me to be entirely myself on alla, with nothing to hold me back.
Have I tortured you long enough? I guess so.
What is my secret?
I’m transgender; specifically, Male-to-Female.
I wish you all a Happy Friday. I know mine will be.
