Comments on: Prequel Comic 1 /prequel-comic-1/ A comic about being trans male Wed, 06 Nov 2013 04:41:09 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=5.5.15 By: Jack /prequel-comic-1/comment-page-1/#comment-20565 Wed, 06 Nov 2013 04:41:09 +0000 /live-without-em1#comment-20565 I was lucky enough to have parents who were happy for me to have my hair cut before I’d come out to them. The first time I did it, I was 7. I wanted it even shorter but my mum drew the line somewhere (although it was still masculine length and actually shorter than it is now haha). Most boys at that time had reeeeally short hair so I wanted the same. It took about four years for me to get too upset about all the bullying to keep it short, so I grew it out when I was 11. Cut it all off again the day after prom when I was 16 and it felt so good.

Then when I sat down in my seat, the teacher looked at me long and hard, then said “Oh! *birthname*! It’s you! For a second I thought we had a new male student- wait, that was mean….”

He did not know how good that made me feel.

I wasn’t too concerned about folks at school though. My mom flipped out and took me to a hairdresser to fix it and the hairdresser was afraid to cut it any shorter even though she could have made it look better if she did… haha… it was an exhilarating moment taking those scissors to my hair with reckless abandon.
