Profile: Jessie
You can call me… Jessie
I identify as… Androgynous. I refuse to wear women’s clothing, even in the depths of my operatic or otherwise theatrical experiences. I love my ties, slacks and suits. Overall I am a Jessie.
As far as third-person pronouns go, … I prefer feminine pronouns but don’t get offended if someone mistakes me for male as long as they’re nice about it or willing to accept their mistake.
I’m attracted to… Feminine women.
When people talk about me, I want them to… Focus on the quality and depth of my character instead of my inability to fit into either male or female fundamental molds of gender.
I want people to understand… Nothing is black or white.

How do you manage that? I’m a vocal performance grad student this year (a soprano) and singing conventional opera seems to be hopeless for me because there are very few soprano roles that don’t require me to wear a fancy gown.
