Profile: Zeek

You can call me… Zeek.

I identify as… a butch dyke / androgynous.

As far as third-person pronouns go, … use whatever you want. They are all applicable.

I’m attracted to… intelligent women.

When people talk about me, I want them to… realize that what they say about me only proves their ignorance. I couldn’t care less what you think about me.

I want people to understand… being a part of the LGBT community doesn’t mean you are less of a person. Everyone has a right to be happy and be the person they want to be. I pay taxes, have a career and own a home. So what if I want to be gender-less.

About Zeek
I was born in Pittsburgh, PA in the late 1970’s. I grew up as most Yinzers do, an avid Steelers fan. Later, I studied English writing at the University of Pittsburgh. Currently, I am celebrating my 13th year working for the University Library System as the Operations Manager of the Library Collections Storage Unit. Imagine something like Home Depot, but filled with library materials. Yes, I drive a hydraulic forklift. Awesome! In my spare time I like to play video games, softball, and go to music shows.

    You sound like an awesome person! Also, yay for gender-less people in the woods! I am from a rural area, and I see all these gender-diverse folks in cities, but not so many in the forest :)

    Another native Pennsylvanian! I’m from Mercer County and at school in Indiana County! Whoo! Though, admittedly I’m a “yunzer” rather than a “yinzer” but, still. Close enough, right?
