Your closet to come out of

I suppose the only thing that I keep in the closet is that I'm a crossdresser.
Oh, and I think I may be transsexual. Sometimes, I feel like I should be a woman instead, and I'll think like that for months at a time. But then other times I feel just fine as a guy. I'm very on the fence about that, but the crossdressing thing is a big thing for me. My closest four friends know, and my parents (disapprovingly) know.

Other than that...nothing. I'm transparent to basically everyone I know.

Atheism, but my parents already know, and have decided to ignore religious topics with me altogether. Not entirely healthy, but as long as they aren't trying to get me to go to church with them, then I don't mind. With other family members I'm still in the closet, and see no reason to come out.
Outside of family, I'm really open about my atheism, so it isn't really a closet anywhere else.

I haven't "come out" as a gamer.

I know, it's not a big deal, but I am a professional with a very serious job (lawyer, big firm) and it would honestly be better if I told my colleagues I was gay than a gamer.

So I'll stay in the closet and play.

I'm demisexual, something high school kids would probably to make fun of.

Also, I listen to visual kei.
Typical high school students are assholes anyway...<.<

OT: I'm atheist, which most of you on the internet already know... but I can't tell my family because they're deeply religious and will probably stone me to death since they don't really like me anyway...

I've tried to kill myself a few times in high school...

Also I like to wear dresses... not in any kind of obscene sexual way... I just like the way the feel, very comfortable...

Oh yes and I may or may not have a bit of a crush on another Escapist member... though that's more of a fun fact...

I watch My Little Pony. I can't even remember when it went from "What the hell is that? Guess I'll have a look, might get a cheap laugh out of how sappy & shit it probably is" to infecting my brain so that I genuinely enjoy watching it. I don't know why. I swear it's a conspiracy.

The community produces some great original music & remixes too.

Came out as an atheist a long time ago, Nor Cal is a (usually...still get shit for it, even here. /sigh) pretty accepting place.
Opening up the submissive thing to new girlfriends is a continuous closet. My current one only had one experience with the topic, that was her watching Desperate Housewives, in which a man cheats on his wife and leaves her because she couldn't fulfill his submissive desires. As someone who was not into it, she was a bit worried. Silly, I know :p

I think I'm much more of a pervert than I think I am.

I think about sex a little too much, and I know a lot of other guys do too, because we've talked about subjects like this. Sometimes, though, I can think about sex in the worst possible situation for it. Example: high school trip to Washington DC for 5 days with my choir. I had no girlfriend at the time, had not masturbated or had sex in probably a month (hadn't been alone for a long time) My whole choir goes to visit the Holocaust Museum as part of our big tour of sites and museums around the capitol building.

Now, we're in the middle of the section talking about Mengele and scientists and whatnot (I honestly dont remember much of the museum, more on that later) doing experiments on Jews, Gypsies, etc along with the whole atmosphere of being in a museum in remembrance of the systematic murder of 6 million people. No matter what section of the museum we go through, ALL I can think of is this girl (that I had never formally met before) from the Alto II section that is wearing the PERFECT pair of jeans to compliment her sweet ass.

The whole museum is a blur while I'm spending all of my sick, sexually frustrated and pent up time staring at this girl's ass instead of learning or being somber and whatnot. It gets to the point where I even have a boner. Thinking about having sex with this girl. Thinking about finding a quiet, unassuming place in a museum dedicated to the horrible murders of 6 million people... to just sex the hell out of this girl with the sweetest ass I'd ever seen at that moment. Having a boner, with my friends or anyone else would probably think Im some sort of super Nazi serial killer waiting to happen if they ever noticed. So I spent my entire time in the holocaust museum staring at a girl's ass, dreaming about doing her on one of the exhibits.

This girl eventually became my girlfriend, and eventually my dream did come true (though the setting was different)

TL;DR - I fell in love with my second girlfriend at the holocaust museum.

I keep different things from different people. For instance, there are a few people I know that would think I was crazy if I told them I believe in God, although I don't really associate with any religion. I also fully support gay marriage, despite my parents being openly against it. I've also had premarital sex, am a masochist, and have kleptomania. All of these things I keep secret from pretty much everyone I know, aside from my best friend, who is also girl that took my virginity.

And here I am saying it to the world. I never have made much sense, why start now?

If I am and I do carry this out (sex change and all that), then I'm a lesbian. I'm attracted to women, almost no matter what.
I fessed up a bit earlier but I didn't touch on this one cause I figured people might find it a bit weird, wanting to be a woman so you could be a lesbian... but aparently I'm not alone in that. I don't think I'd ever go for a sex change but I've been harbouring the thought of it for years now.

Me third. I've got a transsexual pal who's going to become a man physically, and I'm so happy for him. I'd like to be a woman, but I don't think my parents would approve. Also, I wouldn't be able to become the kind of woman I'd like to be anyway.

I'm sitting here and thinking as hard as I can, and I'm realizing more and more that I don't actually have any personal closets I'm hiding in.

This is a good thing, I guess...?

Huh. It never struck me that gaming might be a problem like that.

I am a serious-minded business professional.

I am also engaged to a woman whom I met online playing an MMORPG. Who is the midst of an ugly divorce.

Oh, and she and her kids are still stuck living with the in-laws until we can find a place.

But they don't know she's getting divorced. And my folks/family don't know about her at all. Because if they did... I don't even want to begin imagining what they would say. Nor do I care. But just having to listen to it, I know I might say something snarky and asshole-ish that I might later regret.

So I'm putting it off until the wedding invites go out.

Which, if proceedings go as planned, should be in about five months.



So there you go! Enjoy your knowledge of my deep, dark, not-so-secret secret.

Or go back to talking about religion and ponies. whatever floats your boats.

Only closet I have yet to come out of with my friends is that I'm a perv. Not a perv, but a perv. But I will resist! Or die trying. It gets in the way of commitment >.>.

Most of my "closet stuff" is sex related, no surprise there. I'm addicted to sex. I have had sex in public, with complete strangers whose names I can't remember anymore, I like being tied up when having sex and some other stuff as well.

I wouldn't want people closest to me knowing this stuff, especially the public thing. I'm sort of an exhibitionist, I 'spose... I like being naked :/
