I've been wondering about something lately and wanted to run this past everybody here. Before I get to my question I should say that I'm still definitely in the closet with my dressing. I've told two people in my life about it - my wife and a former girlfriend from college.
Because of that, I obviously have a very important part of my life that I keep as a secret. What I'm wondering about is if this somehow influences my views of privacy in other parts of my life. For example, the only store reward cards I use are ones I've found when I was out running, my wife and I have one credit card in her name that we have used 8 times in two years and pay cash for everything, and I'm definitely uncomfortable with things such as warrantless wiretapping, etc.
A lot of my friends joke and say I'm paranoid, but I was wondering if this concern about privacy is just an extension of what I've just gotten used to doing since I was very young - protect a very private part of my life. Is anybody else like this?
