Title: Hello!!!
Post by: jenga on November 18, 2008, 08:37:41 PM
Hey everyone!  Just wanted to come out of the shadows and introduce myself.  I figure I have been lurking long enough!  I'm Jenga, and I guess the label that fits me best is androgyne.  I was terribly macho as a result of my upbringing, but I finally got over it! ;D I am now at a point in my life where it's fun to play on the gender line.  I like to dress fem, and sometimes I will dress andro, but mostly I try to stay in the middle with a little of both genders.  I get ma'amed on the phone and at drive-thrus alot, and EVERYONE tends to call me sweetie, and dear, and honey.  I love that!  For me, I like being in a playful mode where I can challenge gender norms without seeming to be in your face or trying to hard.  This gender stuff is fun!!! :angel:

Thanks for the welcome.  I hope I didn't give the impression that this is all just a lark for me.  There are several years of therapy and wreckage for me to be where I am.  I am just quite happy to be where I am, gender-wise, and have found a way to have fun after all the  years of angst.
