My Name Is...

[M.N.I.K]

Hey there, so my name is Kat. I don't have an alias to reflect my "true self" as I call it but basically, call me Kat. I've recently come to accept that I am by technical standard transgender but lemme tell you some backstory on me (if you care, if you don't, don't worry I got'chu I got a TL;DR )

So, I'm 24, and I'm a female biologically but I identify as a man. I've felt this sort of tug of war with myself for a long time. It was easier to just accept I am who I am and that's that both inside and out.

I've never felt trapped. I've read a lot of places where people felt trapped and would do anything to get out of their body and while NO this isn't the ideal body for me and boy would I LOVE to change it, I'm not tearing myself apart over not being in a man' body. I feel that's "strange" for a trans person to not feel trapped and just accept their brain isn't quite right with their body.

If someone told me however "Listen, I can wave a wand and POOF you're a man forever." I'd be like "YES. Please and thank you."

Since my Mother's passing I've done a LOT of thinking and have realized I need to accept who I am, and embrace it. while technically transgender, I don't care if you call me he, she, it, they, balloon unicorn, sparkly rainbow, whatever. Call me a flying helicopter toaster, or just call me Kat, because honestly, I don't care.

Anyways, aside from my weird brain, I'm a pretty chill person! I like doing 3D modeling and animation (both of which I need to buckle down and learn), I make posters,  I like playing video games and again, I'm chill. I've been told I'm brutally honest and transparent so feel free to ask me pretty much anything. I won't tell you like my social security number or my exact address because y'know...stuff and things but yeah! /

TL;DR: I'm Kat, technically a transgender male. Not too big on labels call me whatever, he, she, they, it, whatever. I'm chill and what not and I'm new so...yeah. /

Hi Kate and welcome ) the stuff about the 3ds animations and posters is cool. I woulove love to be able to draw it's quite the art forms.  Pun intended!.. I would love to be a 24 femalet. Myself so tell ya what let's do the olast swap-a-tee-swap whenever science pulls it's fInger out and does something not involving nanotube.

Oh and I like referring to my brain in the 3rd person too as mine is stupid also

Hi Kat, welcome to Susan's Place! You gave us much better choices in the full text, you sparkly unicorn! I'm glad I didn't go for the TL;DR. 

See you around the site!

Hugs, Devlyn

Ok, while this here's a pretty acceptin' forum, I don't take kindly to no flyin' toaster helicopters. Your kind is always takin' off with my toast still a toastin'. ... Oh wait, by golly you said helicopter toaster, not t'other way round. That there's okay then. *spits a wad of tobaccy* (I'm in an accent mood.)

I've never felt trapped. I've read a lot of places where people felt trapped and would do anything to get out of their body and while NO this isn't the ideal body for me and boy would I LOVE to change it, I'm not tearing myself apart over not being in a man' body. I feel that's "strange" for a trans person to not feel trapped and just accept their brain isn't quite right with their body.

Ah, yet another victim to the media cliche like myself and so many others. The truth is that is not strange at all, the "x trapped in y" body is a far less common sentiment than many of us were led to believe. I know it made me feel as though I wasn't actually transgender as a kid and was often the doubt that sent me back into denial many times over the year. I never hated being male, I just vastly preferred the idea of being female.

Anywho, welcome to the forum!

Hi Kat. Welcome to the forum. I too never felt (in my case) as a woman trapped in a man's body. Well that is until very recently when I started to fully accept who I am. Now I am feeling kind of trapped in the wrong body. There is plenty of info on this site and also many many friendly people if you just feel like having a chat.

I might be showing my age here, what does TL;DR: mean?
