Question Coming out as trans in a sports team - April 6th 2015, 12:02 AM

So I have yet to come out as trans to my sports team. For all they know to be true, I am a straight male. I like guys, and I am not a guy. I feel quite a bit of pressure from my team-mates to be like them - go to parties, have sex and go shirtless whenever possible. I have two questions I would like to ask here:

1. How do I come out to my teammates and transition as a female when I don't get along with my female teammates very well?

2. How can I create and maintain relationships with my female teammates after I do come out?

3. How do I come out without causing alarms(with mtf sports issues)?

Honestly, I would be so greatful if anyone knows anything about this. I have searched the web for transitioning as an athlete and have found nothing.
Thank you,
MK
