Hello everybody.
Joined this site a while ago, but didn't get around to posting because I was focusing on setting myself up at a couple of dating sites and
Motherless.com, an image and video sharing social network (NSFW).
Anyway, out of the two dating websites (TransGenderDating (1) and TSDating (2)), I preferred (2), because at least they allow you to perform advanced searches and to set up a detailed profile, but they never verified my profile pic, even though I followed their nonsensical rules to the letter, and now they've actually deactivated my account, don't know why. Annoying, I put a lot of effort into it. (1) feels okay, but their forum sucks and nobody seems to know how to read.
I've felt like a girl for as long as I can remember. That is to say, I have never felt like a boy, and I certainly don't feel like a man now. Comfortable in women's clothing, loved dressing up as a child, wearing men's clothing feels as if I'm in drag.
I do like my mind.
Wish I could pass. With a lot of effort, I can manage, but it takes so much work.
Don't like other people all that much. Most of them strike me as stupid, boring, unimaginative, and brutal. Apparently, I'm hypersensitive, judgemental, and demanding. It's a defence mechanism, I've learned the hard way that people will try to screw me over if I let them, so I've hardened myself.
Bit of an Aspie, bit of a hypomaniac. Hopelessly romantic, enjoy reading books on neuroscience, quantum physics, and a bit of J.G. Ballard in between. Favourites on the web include Hacker News, Less Wrong, Daring Fireball, those kind of places. Wil Wheaton's site, too, although I only discovered that recently. If I were an anime character, I'd be Haruhi Suzumiya, although it feels a bit more like Hinamizawa around here sometimes.
Thinking about plucking my eyebrows a bit more. They're based on Emma Watson's, at the moment, but because my facial structure is closer to Keanu Reeves', I believe I need to create more of an arch.
