I have gotten my first ever question from Formspring. This was sent anonomously, so I can't give proper credit. Still, you know who you are.
Our question today reads, "hey angel your profile says you are a girl are you really? cool either way just curious thanks p.s. love the blog and on the friends front my heart goes out to you happend to me many a time before"
First, let me start by saying thank you for your support. It has been a difficult time, and I greatly appreciate all of the support I have recieved from my friends and readers here on the blog.
Now, on to the actual question part of our question. I know that you are probably expecting a simple answer. But I am anything if not "not simple". So instead you are stuck with one of my long rambling answers instead. Sorry if this disapoints anyone!
Am I really a girl? Well, what makes someone really a girl? Is it what they are born as? If so, then what about those who undergo surgery to change that, or who identify themselves as the opposite gender? I would think that, of all people, those who would visit a blog such as mine would be sympathetic to the idea that gender is more than just what our birth certificates say. I would say that I can be both. We all have our male and female sides, and I am equally and strongly in tune with both. Which one I am at the moment, depends on the situation. When I am here, I am definitely all girl. Or woman, rather. When I am elsewhere, though, my male side may be the dominant aspect.
Again, sorry if this isn't the answer you were looking for, but I feel it is a truer answer than any simple yes or no I could have given. And I hope this does not discourage future questions, not all of them will inspire such ramblings. I look forward to any future questions, suggestions, challenges, etc that any of you may wish to pose, so keep them coming!
hey thanks for answering the question! yeah sorry for the wording of the question and i greatly apreciate the truth im just out looking for a girl into this sort of thing (good luck to me lol) i mean you run a blog u know how it is the feelings of lonliness and the depression but thats whats so fucking great about the internet for a while those feelings transform into acceptance and understanding and occasional trolling damn starting to ramble just saying thanks for the blog and the honesty
ReplyDeleteYou're very welcome. I will always try to answer any question I recieve in a timely manner.
ReplyDeleteI do know how hard it is to find others who you feel comfortable with in exploring this side of yourself.
Perhaps I'm being a bit egotisical when I read your comment, but I do feel that, before I go any further, I should mention that I am seeing someone. We've been together for a very long time and aren't likely to change.
That being said, I'm always willing to make a new friend. I hope to create a place on this blog where everyone can come and feel comfortable, a nice positive place for people to enjoy a shared interest. In time, I may even create a sub forum, so that people can interact more than just leaving comments or emailing me.
