i completely understand the arabian family situation. most foreigners would not be cool with that(my parents are foreigners)...so just keep that a secret ..

Answer 2

First there is a difference in being "gay" and enjoying "cross dressing." So do research to understand the different for your own knowledge and to explain it to your parents IF that is what you choose to do at this time.

Think about the customs of your country and how they view an alternative lifestyle. It's easy for others to say, just be yourself -- when we don't know your full circumstances.

Not everyone will agree with you or continue to love/like you if you open up. You have to be comfortable with who you are because if they should push you away because of who you are then you'll need to be strong enough to handle that.

There are online groups, websites, counseling available, etc. to aide people in understanding and sorting out their feelings. It's best you deal with it now then to force yourself to get married, have children -- only to dissapoint others later because you like to cross dress.

Know that all is well and you should not live your life the way others SAY you should. You are hear on Earth to experience your destiny not theirs.

Answer 3

It sounds like you're asking what styles you can get away with in your social setting/ country. You probably should keep a lookout for someone who dresses the way you want to and is treated the way you want to be (not as gay or fem, I'm guessing) and then either copy them or get advice from them. Just make sure you don't get stoned (by rocks, not weed) or any of those other "wonderful" punishments as a result!

Answer 4

It is ok to be what you are. If you feel endangered by your family if you share this then don't.
Many people at your age enjoy "trying on" how it would feel to be the opposite sex. Or maybe it is a sexual thing. Guys can enjoy silky clothes long hair ect.

Answer 5

Hmmm...sounds like you got a case of transgenderism. I myself am FTM. I agree with the emo comment. That way you can be girly but still have people think you like acting like a boy:) Good luck!

Answer 6

ahh you are heterosexual? umm then maybe you are the so called metrosexual type!! you live in an arabian country .. maybe these ways are considered too extreme and girly.. but here guys get away wearing clear nail polish and stuff.. so dont worry

Answer 7

You're stuck in the wrong society. Keep your secret until you are old enough to move away, and then get out of there! Move to San Francisco where you can be yourself.

Answer 8

Awww, don't be ashamed of who you are, think about it, if you are sensitive, girls LOVE that, they love that emotional acumen that 99.9% of guys don't have, it's a BLESSING to be able to be a feminine male, there's nothing wrong with it, just remember to be true to yourself no matter what, and everything will fall into place!

Answer 9

yeah, i wouldn't tell your parents if i were you, unless of course, they're really understanding. you might get hurt in the end. i think you should go on wearing the normal hairstyles and styles of guys in your country because you might start something.

Answer 10

The last time you asked this question you were 16. Happy Birthday! Be yourself.
