And talking frankly about it like this? I could never do IRL or with anyone I didn't identify strongly with, because I'd be far too worried about how they thought about me.
You could probably talk to me IRL about it, if we ever met IRL. I've been told by many a friend that I'm the least judgmental person they know. I once really made a friend laugh because she was asking if any of my siblings were as non-judgmental as I was, and I said "I don't know...I guess my brother can be pretty judgmental, but I try not to judge him for it." :P
But yeah, I completely understand what you mean. It's just easier to keep it to yourself rather than risk being misunderstood/rejected.
Mind you, sometimes I get a kick out of deliberately misleading people...not so much telling them lies, but only telling them enough so that I know they'll jump to the wrong conclusions. Usually though, it's so that they'll make the assumption that I'm more normal than I actually am. :P
