Social Life Problems

I always have had problems with interacting people socially, somedays I am fine and end up being the star of the night and other days I simply suck, and get large amounts of rejection... and same thing happens on-line.. What I do find annoying , is when I go out for the night to have fun, a bit of a dance, if my back isn't to bad and let my hair down, I encounter people who just stupid about the whole thing and to the point instead of having a general conversation about stuff , things, life , philosophy etc... its about gender , with the question of weather I am a woman or a man...., I cant simply lie blatantly that I had been born with vagina only, this has stopped me from going out at night and meeting new people, I wish people were more understanding, where when they would see me, keep there opinions to themselves or have an idea without asking questions in public... some cases people don't even know what intersex is.. and I end up explaining the "hermaphrodite" bit just so they understand... some even don't even know that and don't even have a basic general knowledge of biology... and end up repeating like a binary gendered questionnaire..

The good news is I have met someone like myself in the region, but not with same "symptoms", but similar, and we have similar external conditions in regards to our bodies as well as social conditions, but sexual orientation differs, as well as beliefs and spirituality... but at least I have met someone real , and have hugged like myself, and not feel to alien on about this.

I do apologise that I openly share my thoughts, but I just felt like doing it as I have no where else where there is so little understanding and ignorance out there.. to the point people who have problems make it my problems just because of who and what I am.
Much Love and huggles
