Profile: Aiden

You can call me… Aiden

I identify as… A neutral/fem-presenting trans woman

As far as third-person pronouns go, … She/Her, please and thank you!

I’m attracted to… Everyone? I think? I don’t tend to be sexually or romantically attracted to any one gender in particular, but that could mean I’m ace/aro or pan. I’ve never really had an interest in relationships before, though I think it could be fun.

When people talk about me, I want them to… Talk about something other than my appearance. I know I look funny. I know I talk funny. I know I act funny. I know, I know, I know, I’ve heard it all a thousand times, so please for Christ’s sake talk about something else about me. And please, use my pronouns.

I want people to understand… Words hurt. I was born with only one hand, and my face was disfigured in a car accident. On top of that, I’ve got frizzy orange hair, I’m too tall for a girl, I can’t pass for crap, and I’ve got any other number of flaws that people are all too willing to point out. My self esteem was in shambles for most of my life. Of course, I’m learning to love myself, but there have been times where one cruel ableist joke has set me back months in terms of my progress. Just, be careful what you say. If it’s easy for you to insult someone, chances are it’s just as easy for everyone else to insult them too.
