When I was 8 years old, one of my classmates noticed my Mickey Mouse watch and said that she liked it. I suddenly got goose bumps when she tugged at my arm to take a closer look. I thought she was pretty. At that age, I noticed that I was not other girls I knew. When I was nine, I liked playing with toys like cars, guns, swords. I enjoyed competing with rough games like wrestling and boxing. I grew up the only girl in a family of four boys. At the age of 12, our english teacher, found my copy of the lyrics "KISS THE GIRL" lying on my desk and ripped it in half. I almost cried. I couldn't see what was so wrong with that. I went to high school at an exclusive all girls school. It was a school run by conservative nuns. Our ruler, and since i preferred to wear my skirts longer that the two-inches below the knee requirement..I was always reprimanded. just like in any exclusive convent school, writing letters to girls you liked was normal. It was also common for school authorities to look through students' bags for "love" letters if they suspected a girl of having a relationship with another girl. these could be used as valid justification for the authorities to put a student on probation, suspension or for repeat offenses, EXPULSION. When I was fourteen, I often wrote Rica*, a girl I liked. Rica was one of the most popular girls in school. I knoew she liked me too. A mutual friend of ours told me to court her, I gave it a try. the relationship wasn't anything serious, we're just happy with each other's company and we expressed this through affectionate letters. Her mom discovered my letters and turned them over to the school. My parents were called to the guidance office to be told my offense. My parents then were in denial, they didn't believe that i liked girls. They felt i fell in with the "wrong group of friends". I felt like the black sheep of the family. One time, my friend and I were cramming to complete an overdue assignment in the restroom after recess. After every break, students had to fall in line outside the classroom for the roll call before entering class. We escaped this by slipping into one of the restrooms near the cafeteria. When a teacher entered, we panicked and hid in one of the cubicles. I was afraid because I was already in deep trouble with the school. Unfortunately, the teacher caught us and reported us to the authorities. She surmised that we were doing something we weren't supposed to be doing inside the cubicle. In short, i got EXPELLED.. and other reasons behind that was because of my crew cut, and "butch" mannerisms....!! Was the decision fair?? Yes I am a lesbian, but I am a human... IS IT REALLY FAIR??
