Hi. Hello. Um...I'm a rather shy person, with a tendency toward terrible writer's block, so bear with me.
My name is...well, I'm currently in the early stages of trying to eventually decide on a new name for myself. Trying to decide on a new name that's just right from a list of possibilities about a mile long. But right now, the whole world knows me by my birth name, which is Jamie.
My gender identity: complicated.
But the label I've settled on for the moment, the best way I can describe myself would be genderqueer.
I'm 23 years old- so in some respects, you could say I'm like any other millennial young person, trying to figure out their place in the world. My own personal journey just happens to have some extra add-ons. You know, fundamental stuff, like...gender. Which I'm sure is more than understandable, given the audience I'm speaking to.
I'm out to my parents, few friends...somewhat. But no one around me completely gets it. Though, what can you do when your very gender causes everyone around you to question everything they knew about there being two genders/sexes? I have a trans female friend struggling to come to terms with her own identity, & I was recently dismayed to learn that not even she understood.
At any rate, moving on! No room for misery here. Or time, seriously.
I think I've come across this website maybe a handful of times before, though I never created an account. Until now (dramatic music).
Please please please feel free to ask me anything (within reason & common sense, of course). I'm really friendly.
Excited to get to know all of you, get to know members of the community which I'm apart of.
