“This shot looks very g-rated, however I like it because it shows how masculine a female bodied person can get through just body building, binding and clothes.”

“Presented my true, comfortable self at my college today. Is it so bad that I don’t want to wear tight clothes and dresses?”

“I never really take close up pictures of myself, because I feel like it ‘zeros in’ on my flaws. However, here, I feel naked and very real…and very much proud of my gender identity, as fluid and contextual as it can be at times.”

“Growing up on a farm, I was scared to be proud of what was causing me so many problems. When I went to university, I started to dress up in bright colours, and wear make up, just to highlight my best features. This photo sums up this time in my life, which was scary, but allowed me to emerge.”

“I’m a 21 year old female cross-dressing genderbender, and I love it! This is my alter-ego – Captain Bamahoy. His favourite hobbies are listening to 80′s Italo Disco and striking the pose about the house. What’s more funny is that even my alter-ego likes to cross-dress – his favourite outfit is my 80′s wedding dress complete with heels, veil, pink wig and moustache!”

“I get picked on all the time. No matter where I go it’s always the same: “Are you a boy or a girl?” I am f born and will die a f, yet no one believes me.”

“Lots of people call me a dyke; they say I look like a man. I don’t like to think of myself that way. I am a girl, yes, but why does it matter what I look like? Why do I have to be defined by the way I look? I prefer to live without a label, and just be who I am. I don’t dress based on gender roles; I dress to feel comfortable with who I am.”

“This was the first time that I allowed myself to express my gender (or lack there of) around my parents.”

“My masculinity and my femininity are both shining through this pic. I believe it shows the unaltered, raw truth of me being gender-queer. :) It makes me happy.”
