Shaved


Submitted by Alexandra, the model and photographer

“This is the first photo that I took after shaving my head. People need to do what makes them happy in life; and this made me more than happy. They also need to realize that beauty is not just skin deep; and this is part of my journey.”

Profile: Misty


You can call me… Misty

I identify as… I’m a transgendered m-f! Have been living full-time as a female for 5 years, and I have been on HRT for 5 years also! I’m not sure if I want the SRS yet, because I love everything about my body now! I always knew I wanted to be a girl from the time I was 6 years old!

I’m attracted to… other TS girls who live full as female, and who are dom in nature! I’m sub, and any person who wants me as a slave or sub must be very fem appearing!

When people talk about me, I want them to… accept me as the person I am!! Don’t call me queer or faggot, I know what and who I am. I’m very proud of it! I have worked hard to become me!

I want people to understand… I enjoy living as a girl full-time, and I hope they can accept that fact!

About Misty
I’m a 21-year-old transsexual who lives full-time as a girl! Am on HRT but not sure about the SRS yet. I’m sub in nature and love being the girl i am!

Cow or Horse


Someone wrote…

Gender: Give me a mandatory closed field with two mutually exclusive responses to choose from and you might as well ask if I’m a cow or a horse.

What’s your experience?

And what are you thinking about gender right now?

Personfriend


Someone wrote…

Being genderqueer and dating someone who’s genderfluid, both of us very obviously female physically, I’ve sort of fallen in love with the word “personfriend”.

What’s your experience?

And what are you thinking about gender right now?

Profile: Sierra


You can call me… Sierra, Chibi, Rain, Damian. Depends on what I’m wearing that day.

I identify as… Genderless Chibi is genderless.

As far as third-person pronouns go, … I’m used to “she,” but anything else makes me happy. :3

I’m attracted to… androgyny, anyone who can have a good cuddle. I love affection. :D Not too picky, but I’ve shown a pattern of people with a similar skin tone, whether it be olive-toned Caucasian, Asian, light-skinned black  (like me!!), Middle Eastern, Hispanic/Latin, et cetera. Someone who’s just obsessed with their hair and makeup as I am, so we can share products XD

When people talk about me, I want them to… see me as a person, and not just a gender or color.

I want people to understand… we all bleed red. We’re all stuck on this planet, so why not make the best of it?

About Sierra, Chibi, Rain, Damian. Depends on what im wearing that day.
16 years young. I plan on graduating early and getting a degree in Graphic Design/Art with a minor in something cool, like philosophy or herbology…yeah. I love flowers.
Not much else to say  :D

What do you see?


Submitted by Derek Pazolt, the model and photographer

“I am hanging at the beach, and every few people say hello. Usually they alternate pronouns and I say hello to both. Occassionally two people will be within earshot of one another, and they look confused. That makes me smile.”

Profile: Helbiie


You can call me… Helbiie

I identify as… a male who loves breaking gender rules. I am a guy, so I go by male pronouns. But I’d rather be called “beautiful” than “handsome,” just sounds better.

As far as third-person pronouns go, … him,:)

I’m attracted to… If you haven’t guessed, I’m gay. I’m attracted to all types of men. You don’t have to be 6 feet tall and manly,  just be yourself and carry yourself greatly. Also I am attracted to pretty boys, doesn’t matter what race :).

When people talk about me, I want them to… say, “He is so real and down to earth.” :)

I want people to understand… Forget what everyone else tells you, do what makes you happy, and put yourself first. Always.

About Helbiie
I am 18. Hispanic. From Puerto Rico. I love to meet new people. I wish to travel in the future. I live in Cleveland, Ohio. I’m an aspiring make up artist and cosmetologist, currently in school for it :).

Mind and Spirit


Someone wrote…

I need a body to carry my mind and spirit around in, but putting a dress on my female body does not make my gender femme/female.

What’s your experience?

And what are you thinking about gender right now?

Strong


Someone wrote…

I used to hate that I got my dad’s strong jaw. Now I like it because it makes my face a little more androgynous.

What’s your experience?
