    I would it were that I could tell you that I knew what to say, to start... but I don't.
    Let's get the obvious stuff out of the way:


    25 / NE Ohio / Biologically Male, non-binary
    Questioning Sexuality and Gender


    My current analysis of things is that I'm what you might call a 'hermaphrodite', in the sense that I don't just identify as bigendered/trigendered, but that I feel I should have physically the anatomy of both genders.
    I don't feel I can adequately tell if that's like a female-leaning herm, or a like a male-leaning herm-- it's been my experience that even herms have like a female or male 'base' with the anatomy of both below the belt-- and personality aspects that are a mix of both genders, yet still with a certain gender 'personality base' to match.


    Well okay, more like it's been my philosophizing, theories about how gender works, encounters & exploration, than 'experience'.
    I have times where I feel like I'm female-based and have a predominantly 'female' way of reacting to things (& even my 'internal voice' is female), and at other times I'm content to be a more masculine, more protagonistic figure (like the 'main character in the movie', etc.) with a male 'internal voice'... and in both sides I feel thoughts that remind me I still have the mental sides of both female and male... but in either case I still get dysphoric about the lack of proper 'herm' anatomy.


    I wish I could tell you that the only troubles I have in Life are those of the mismatch between physical body and the body I feel I should have/have been born with.
    I wish I could tell you that.


    But certain other personal issues (heavy-set emotional baggage included) have permated my life, ranging from mildly discomforting (enough to distract me when I'm trying to think) thoughts, to moderately traumatic (keeping me up at night).
    I don't know if I'll be discussing the other stuff here as well... yet.


    I hope you'll welcome me here, and... eventually... know me for me, and not just for how I say things or for just what I have to say.
    But more than that, I hope I don't overstep my bounds while I'm here (I tend to be vulgar and overpersonal... at times... but only in context).
