How did you get to where you are today?

I'm putting this in the trans zone because I don't think that most of us just woke up one day and said I'm transgender. I think we all have a story of how we got to where we are today. It's only been a few years since the first time I heard the term transgender, but as soon as I learned what it was I was like OMG yeah that's me. I was amazed that I wasn't the only person in the world that had lived this way most of my life. Fortunately with more and earlier information, I expect the younger folks here knew they were TG and knew what it was at an earlier age.

I thought of this as I watched Chaz last night. Chastity experienced some of the same things as I did. Wished and hope for some of the same things and hated some of the same things like puberty etc as I did and as I'm sure many of you did. I also think some of the folks here have experienced some of the things Chaz has experienced and might have thought at the time you must be the only person who experienced it too.

So if you feel comfortable with it, share with us how you got to where you are today. Be you TG, F2M, M2F, butch, female ID'd butch. I'm pretty sure that most of us trans folks knew we were in the wrong body at very young ages. For the butches and female ID'd butches, how did you know or when did you know that you were only butch. All are welcome, lets hear it.
