Gender Issues and Gay Support Resources:

That Funny Feeling -- by Kevin Jennings. My funny feeling was brought on by the anxiety I felt about going back to school, an anxiety which was not unique to me but is one to which I believe all people can relate. But my funny feeling was heightened as a teenager when I realized I was gay and when other kids started calling me faggot.
