You can call me… Matthew, Matty, Matt, Mattoozle, Mateo, etc…. I’ve been called all of the above. Call me whatever you want, but I’m usually called Matt.

I identify as… a human being first and foremost. Made in the image of God. I am biologically male and identify as male, but I also have a very strong and obvious feminine side that I don’t deny or try to hide. In fact, I embrace it openly and quite enjoy it, I wear make-up, paint my fingernails and toenails (any and all colors), dress in a unisex manner, etc…. Most of my friends are girls, as I simply relate to them better. I enjoy facials, manicures, pedicures, etc… Things you would not normally associate with guys. I would call myself an androgynous male or a gender bender as far as actual terms go.

As far as third-person pronouns go, … in the end you’re gonna call me whatever you want to call me, so have at it. Being called things like “Girly boy” and stuff like that doesn’t really bother me at all, because technically it’s true. Hehe. I am Matt. No more. No less.

I’m attracted to… women. I would say that someone who shares my Faith, open-mindedness, androgyny, eccentricity, uniqueness, tolerance, patience, expressiveness, and sensitivity are the things that I look for.

When people talk about me, I want them to… try not focus so much on gender binaries, and try to see who I am on the inside. Like I said, more than anything I am human being made in the image of God. More than anything, I want to be an accurate representation of my Savior Jesus Christ. Yeah, I understand there are people who will read this that don’t share my faith, but it is my belief that there are too many Christians who talk the fancy talk instead of walking the difficult walk. I want to show Christ in my actions and how I treat others, not in order to earn Salvation that I already know is mine but in order to show HIS Love.

I want people to understand… like me, you’ve probably been called every derogatory name in the book and will no doubt have many more thrown in your direction. What I want is people to understand more than anything is that you were made the way you are for a purpose. Yeah, you may not agree with that, but there are reasons you are whoever you are and you have a destiny same as anyone else. Don’t let the world try to beat you down with ignorance and hatred. “We’re all different, we’re all strange, who really cares? Let’s just keep dancing” and “Who wants to be ordinary in a crazy, mixed-up world?” are two lyrical examples of my life philosophy. What is “normal”? Who is “normal”? Normal, as far as I’m concerned, is something that doesn’t exist and all for the better. “Ordinary” is boring and something I refuse to make time for.

About Matthew
Christian, Libertarian, Musician, Photographer, Picture editor, Film lover, Lover of art, Artist, Poet, etc…. What you see is what you get. I’ve very sensitive, I over analyze things, I love going barefoot (I follow somewhat of a barefoot lifestyle, in fact: http://barefooters.org/), I’m not perfect, but try to treat people the way I wish to be treated, I have a deep heart and an overactive brain, I’m one of the most nostalgic people you’ll ever meet, I hope to make a future career of music or at least some art form, I am a deeply romantic and loving person, etc…. I’m Me. :)

You can call me… whatever you would like. I allow everyone I meet to give me a name, if that person would like. So far I have 797!

I identify as… GenderQueer, Andro, Pansexual, Polyamorous, Kinky, Two-Spirit, Queer, Xueer, Familia, Person of color, sex positive, body positive, size positive. But in reality, I am simply who I am , I don’t like these classifications. But I understand their utility.

As far as third-person pronouns go, … the singular form of They (subjective) Them (objective) Their (possessive), or using my name works too.

I’m attracted to… mostly Queer people of any gender. I will say that I have a stronger affinity to people of color, but that is not always the case… If you are down, and I mean DOWN, then I probably like you (already jeje) regardless of anything else.

When people talk about me, I want them to… talk about my character(s) not my body/gender/size/sexuality,

my nature not my/ their social exceptions of me,

Love and beauty of the mind and energy

but mainly I don’t really want people to talk about me. I am, after all, no one special. I am only a reflection of others

I want people to understand… That I am guided by great feelings of love, and that it is universal but not without faults… So I will be patient as much as I can be.

You can call me… Liam.

I identify as… I’m not really down with identities that hinge on gender (as in trans, though I am proud to be a tranny), since that is inherently oppressive. So let’s just say I’m queer.

As far as third-person pronouns go, … he or ze, please.

I’m attracted to… lots of qualities/people/identities, but usually feminine women. What can I say?

When people talk about me, I want them to… get to know me. I’m an open book. And a good read.

I want people to understand… that gender is a fluid system, but also as a system of oppression that needs to be dismantled. Though it is fun to play with, for the time being.

About Liam.
I want to advocate for queer rights for the rest of my life. Gender is the bane of my existence, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. I started a Youtube channel (lml127) and a tumblr (jaygats.tumblr.com) to address issues of gender. Really, it all fascinates me and I love to learn- I am so so so lucky that I get to think about all this stuff.

You can call me… Amelia

I identify as… MtF-pan-romantic-asexual-polyamorous-lesbian-artist. Or just queer, that seems easier right?

As far as third-person pronouns go, … she, always she.

I’m attracted to… androgyny, femininity, boyish girls, girly boys, tattoos, piercings, nice eyebrows, cute noses, cat-lovers, and intelligence. Whomever I fancy, really.

When people talk about me, I want them to… realize that I can probably hear them, I have hella awesome hearing. Also, they should talk about how awesome I am (that is if they think I am, of course).

I want people to understand… I am not a gender or a sexual orientation, I’m a person and those are just facets of me.

About Amelia

I identify as… I am a man, I have never desired to switch genitalia. I get most of my features from my mother: dopey, big eyes, a soft nose and face shape. However, I get my lips, hair, and body type from my father! I am 18 and coming to the realization that it’s okay to look like my mom. For the longest time my “goal” was to look masculine and “act straight” (I’m gay btw). Of course, I was lying to myself. Now my goal is to be 100% true to myself. Styles that I’m into now : 90′s revival, 70′s revival, pastel goth– junk like that! Basically, if I think it looks good on me, I do whatever it is. Growing out my hair. :)

As far as third-person pronouns go, … I prefer “him” or “buddy!”

I’m attracted to… I’ve only had one relationship, and I learned so much from it. I’m attracted to guys that are accepting and open minded. Someone who has fun with their style and does what makes THEM happy! I love ethnic guys! Celebrities I faint over are Adrien Brody and Jason Castro.

When people talk about me, I want them to… say, “He is so sweet.”

I want people to understand… that everything in this world is not gender specific! I’m not ashamed to be called a woman. Men and woman are at the same level, no one is greater.

About Jordan!
I am an artist in many ways, I enjoy painting the most. I have fun with my style, what I wear, and how I decorate my body. I take inspiration from everything androgynous, such as the New York Dolls, Hedwig, Andrej Pejic! I watch RuPaul’s Drag Race religiously! I LOVE DRAG QUEENS! Love ‘em!! I’m into so many genres of music, I probably have favorite songs from every decade and genre. Currently, I’m listening to “Dark Lady” by Cher!

You can call me… Elle Emme.

I identify as… a femme lesbian all the way.

As far as third-person pronouns go, … she/her.

I’m attracted to… amazing noses. Tomboys: There’s a fine line between tomboy and masculine, and I’m great at navigating it. I also adore the occasional (lucky!) femme. And I can’t forget my boyfriend.

When people talk about me, I want them to… never worry that I might be hurting. I want them to always talk about “happy” me.

I want people to understand… that I’m not hiding my identity in femininity. I love dresses, heels, skirts, makeup, long nails, and doing my hair. I love being queer. I want people to understand how difficult it can be being femme and having to tell everyone I meet that I am a lesbian, because they assume otherwise. Understand what it feels like to feel a constant pressure from both queer and straight communities to prove that I am queer, simply because my outward appearance doesn’t fit the stereotype. I want people to understand that I can have a boyfriend who is female-bodied, and that’s O.K.

About Elle Emme
My live revolves around inspiration. Music, clothes, and an oddball film influence me to write everyday. If I can’t be a writer, then I can’t be anything else. I want to be a voice in fiction for the outcast and/or the queer community.

You can call me… Reneta Scian, Reneta, or Renee for short.

I identify as… a woman.

As far as third-person pronouns go, … I prefer female pronouns, her, she, or my name.

I’m attracted to… primarily androgynous and masculine females, but I find femme girls cute too.  Transmen, as long as they treat me like a lady. I like cute boys, and ironically find rugged men pretty hot, though I don’t know if I’d ever date one.  Other transwomen are attractive to me on as well.  I am effectively attracted to people who take the traditional male role in the relationship, which I refer to as the lead role.  It’s just what I am happy with and has nothing to do with gender.

When people talk about me, I want them to… not judge me for being different.  I want them to see that I am a woman for regardless of the things that make me masculinized or feminized, but society has a propensity to label me with heinous names as though I am a criminal.  They call me a transsexual, a tranny, t-girl, or worse, “A really gender confused man.”  I want them to know, I have never been confused about my gender, but that it is they who are confused about my gender.

I want people to understand… that the icons of masculinity and femininity they covet makes them all look inferior in juxtaposition.  Why covet an impossible to attain Duke Nukem-ish person as the icon of maleness, and a Japanese Pop idol as the icon of femaleness. There are only a handful (less than 1 : 1,000,000) in the world’s population that can even measure up.  It’s ludicrous, and not to mention unfeasible and unhealthy.  We have to love the lives and bodies we have, so expecting us to live up to the gender binary and following such fallacious icons borders on criminal.  Some people need to change their bodies to live a fully functional life, some don’t.  If you don’t, good for you.  Expecting me, however, to play the cards dealt to me from a deck stacked against me is wrong.  Like medical treatments done everyday to make peoples lives better, conforming my body to my true gender identity is just as important.

About Reneta
I am me.  I can’t not be me.  Most of my life I was in a fight between myself, and what the world would allow me to be.  I am a kind and gentle spirit faced with a world of hatred and hostility for me.  I guess, some days I am waiting for a knight in shining armor to come and rescue me. If I was a fantasy character, I would be both the heroine and the damsel in distress (most likely because I have noble intentions and the grace of a boulder rolling down a hill).  I can be a klutz, and if you see me going more than 5 minutes without limping, tripping, spilling, falling or bumping something then you have witnessed a miracle. 

If I was a superheroine, I’d be the one to swoop in to save the day, tweak my ankle upon landing and topple into a Starbucks, only stopping when a dense enough object resists my forward momentum.  I am a nerd, and a geek, but I am by far socially inept, I just tend to remain anonymous.  I am the girl who sits in the corner and has people approach her.  I like flattery, but it’ll get you no where, actions speak louder than words.  I can tell more about you from your eyes, lips and face, your body language, and demeanor than I can from anything you say in the first 5 minutes.  I am an empath, you can’t hide your feelings from me, but you can hide why your feeling it.

You can call me… Bree.

I identify as… someone who loves equally and thinks that no matter your gender, size, shape, hair color, tattoos, or what you consider yourself, you’re perfect.

As far as third-person pronouns go, … IDK!!

I’m attracted to… femm girls who are true to themselves, and are not skinny little girls. I like my women healthy :]

When people talk about me, I want them to… think of me as someone who is the best they can be. Someone who is always honest and true to who they really are.

I want people to understand… no matter what you see on the outside of me, I am equal and will always welcome them with open arms!!

About Bree

You can call me… Nora

I identify as… Lord knows. Definitely not a lady, though that is how everyone knows me.

As far as third-person pronouns go, … whatever works. As a Pisces, I don’t really like to step on anyone’s toes, so I probably won’t correct you (although my mother definitely will).

I’m attracted to… feminine women who are a little older than me. Masculine men hold a certain glamour for me as well, but I think I just want to look like them.  Belief in religion, small stature, baking ability, and nice hair definitely draw me to a person. Laughing at my jokes/making me laugh will really snare me, as will hiding in my shoulder when a movie scares you. Anything that validates my masculinity (complimenting my strength, telling me how handsome my jacket looks, etc) makes me like someone a lot too. Also, confidence is hot, and definitely an underrated quality. When I tell you how good you look, I mean it and you should own it, not shrug it off.

When people talk about me, I want them to… not really pay attention to how I look (unless you think I’m cute, then go ahead!). It is so much easier for me to be a real person in public when I am not constantly worrying about how people are perceiving me in the moment. I hate feeling like I have to justify or explain myself. I want people to be genuine with me, because I always try my hardest to do the same.

I want people to understand… that not everything revolves around which bathroom I choose to enter. The world is a little harder for me to navigate, and I am not asking for sympathy or anger when I tell you to watch my back when we go in the women’s changing room at Target, I really just need you to stop the sales lady from evicting me as I try on my Levi’s. I will tell you if I want to change my pronouns, so stop asking.

About Nora
I am a politically moderate, Christian, 19-year-old gay female who does almost anything possible to deny their sex. I think that there are good Catholics out there (I am one), and that sometimes people who you think will be real jerks are actually sort of sweet and genuine (I am one of those too). I want to be an Army doctor, and I hate that my obvious gender identity issues might bar me from helping people that I believe really deserve it. I think that one day I will make a really great parent, and my father will make a really great grandparent, and I want to have kids as soon as I am in a stable situation. I like to think I am pretty interesting, and I wonder if you agree.

You can call me… Ariel

I identify as… a largely feminine lady who has her masculine days.

As far as third-person pronouns go, … she, her, etc. I suppose I wouldn’t mind the occasional “he,” but it’s not what I feel.

I’m attracted to… everybody. Well, men and women with a large preference for women. I like natural and nonconventional, but I don’t care about feminine or masculine. A masculine woman? Sure. Feminine? Cool. Feminine boy? Masculine boy? It’s all the same. Androgynous? Oh my, yes.

When people talk about me, I want them to… feel I’m trustworthy, reliable, honest, and good at what I do, which is music and singing/acting.

I want people to understand… that most of the stuff they get hung up on is just a matter of a few yards of cloth and who people plant their lips on. I think that if more people thought of it that way, there’d be less hate and more healthy neutrality.

About Ariel
I’m Ariel. I consider myself bisexual (or maybe pansexual). I love singing, acting, writing, and baking. I’m also very interested in gender studies.

When people talk about me, I want them to… realize that I have a personality, and I’d like for people to focus on that. :DD

I want people to understand… that everyone was born a certain way for a reason. :3

About Greyson
Erm, hai I’m Greyson. Underaged, but I still know exactly who I am. I love photography and friends >:3 Sometimes I’m a bit emotional, but … my body is still female, if you get what i’m sayin’. c’: I tend to be attracted to FTMs the most. :3 I’m pretty random and wild. I’m a stay-at-home kid though. ;D I think I’m pretty easy to get along with. As long as you’re not boring, I’m okay :3 I feel more comfortable being called “he” and “him.” Parents haven’t caught on. My mom is trying, but my dad is TOTALLY against everything. -.- My sister is very very supportive, and I love her more than anything in the universe.

When I get older, I’m hoping to start the whole T shots and stuff. I’ve been to counseling, but they don’t seem to help me with anything. I’ll go with the flow if I have to :3
-.- that was long.
My fingers are getting numb, So I’ll go now.

You can call me… either Lizzy or Owen. Miller is fine too.

I identify as… Well, I don’t quite know. I’m an awfully short, biological female with long hair that I love or hate depending on the day. My gender changes. If I feel like a girl, I’ll dress like a girl. If I’m feeling like a dude, I’ll be a dude for however long I feel like it. I don’t know what I am, and I’m fine with that.

As far as third-person pronouns go, … any and all, please and thank you.

I’m attracted to… fit girls, tall boys. Preferably with a healthy balance of stereotypical femininity and masculinity, much like myself. Intelligence and compatibly in terms of political opinions and humor is important.

When people talk about me, I want them to… talk about what I do and not who I am. I would much rather be remembered as that chick who has feathers in her hair who danced in the halls and overcame numerous obstacles instead of anything else.

I want people to understand… gender is not concrete. It changes and stretches, much like our emotions and thoughts. Simply because I look like a girl (and don’t have the balls to cut my hair short) does not mean that I necessarily identify as a girl. Gender is tricky stuff.

About Lizzy / Owen

As far as third-person pronouns go, …
“A rose by any other name would smell as sweet,
An Alexx by any other pronoun would be the same.”

I’m attracted to… human beings who are of a healthy physical appearance, a mental ability near mine and have similar interests.

When people talk about me, I want them to… don’t make assumptions, I’d rather you ask in a rude way, then make hurtful and wrong assumptions… and don’t spread the BS, nobody wants it.

I want people to understand… that I have feelings. That sometimes my feelings are too big to handle, and so I keep them all locked up.

About Alexx

I made it to sweet 16 and never been kissed, proudly.

You can call me… Uly, for short.

I identify as… a panromantic, pansexual, age-indefinite writer/artist… who looks best in heels and a dress, but internally, is simply androgynous. Someone who, inside, encompasses all genders and is indiscriminate to both biological sex and age. Sounds confusing, I know, but bear with me!
(I’m also camera-shy; it bothers me to look directly into a lens.)

As far as third-person pronouns go, … I don’t mind whether someone calls me “he” or “she,” just as long as I know it’s me they’re talking to! No matter what I’m wearing– heels, slacks, a dress– any pronoun is welcome. Similarly, I like “sir” and “ma’am” the same. (But no “miss.” “Miss” screams “young adult”; I’d rather just be an adult.)

I’m attracted to… anyone who happens to attract me. I’d say confident, open-minded persons. People with a sense of individuality, (somewhat) twisted wit (I’m a writer, after all), and appreciation for the arts. Polite, considerate… thinks before they speak… that sort of thing. Courtesy will get you everywhere with me!
On a more visual note, I flock like a moth to a light to the outwardly androgynous. Persons who mix and match both sexes’ fashions, however and whenever they like; there’s no reason the best of both clothing sections can’t be blended into one! I say outward because I see one’s fashion sense and one’s sense of gender as different. In a nutshell: snazzy dressers are, regardless of anything else, snazzy and therefore drool-worthy.

When people talk about me, I want them to… consider me as straddling the lines of both gender and age; I think of myself as all genders, and prefer to forgo age-specific labels. I’d rather not be known for either gender or age, just myself. My ambiance, my soul, me.

I want people to understand… that I see gender and age as fluid, interchangeable aspects. One day, I can be a man, and the next, a woman; most days both. And even though I see it that way, I understand that not everyone does, and I’m completely fine with that. As long as everyone’s civil and polite, live and let live.

About Uly, for short.
My name is Ulysses (Uly for short), and I’m an aspiring novelist, hobbyist comic artist/illustrator, and a procrastinating muralist. And as much as I’d like to ramble (how I love to ramble), the words ‘writer’ and ‘artist’ pretty much sum me up!

On a second note, to pay the bills, I’m a freelance illustrator and an administrative assistant/DJ/dinner theatre actor for an entertainment company.  (It’s an interesting, strange-yet-fun line of work.)

You can call me…Julianna… or Nathaniel (a friend came up with JulianNathaniel

I identify as… non-op FtA? Dyke-leaning, pansexual girlfag? Genderqueer? Intergender? A sissy little nancyboy? Yes to all, at varying times, in varying degrees, in intricate blends and mixtures.

As far as third-person pronouns go, … depends on how I’m presenting. About 90% of the time, “she,” and “her.” When I am in boy mode, I am a boy, I am “he.” Someone referred to me as “ze” recently, and I didn’t hate it. I have some more thinking to do about this.

I’m attracted to… pretty. Pretty comes in many forms… butch girls, high fem, tough girls… just GIRLS. Cis or trans, whateva. Tall, lanky, girly boys. Intersexed folks. Androgynes. My sexual schema is all over the map.

Let’s just say “the human form,” in all of its delightful and splendid variation.

When people talk about me, I want them to… ask questions if they’re confused. Don’t make assumptions! I am friendly and I don’t mind genuine inquiry. It’s a learning experience for us both!

I want people to understand… I. Am. Not. A. Girl. Not all of the time (arguably not any of the time) inside my head, where it really matters. I am girl-bodied, and I’m keeping it that way, but inside, there’s way more to it than that. If you respect the boy/neuter parts of me, you will be my best friend.

You can call me… Dude seems to suit me.

I identify as… anatomically female, neither man nor woman, both man and woman, or one or the other on different days or in different phases. I’m not confused! I was just born as both.

As far as third-person pronouns go, … they all sound so ridiculous that I’m ambivalent. I wish we didn’t have to choose, because there are so many implications behind both sets. I’ve been taught that “she” means weak and “he” means strong, for example. Call me “he” just for the sake of corruption.

I’m attracted to… passion, positivity, unwavering understanding/kindness, deviance and perseverance. Cross-dressing men. Mad style and anti-fashion. Above all, honesty and humble intellectuals.

When people talk about me, I want them to… realize that my life and mind are much different from anyone else’s, just like yours, so you shouldn’t criticize. I believe that when you treat someone well, you’re treating yourself well, and the same goes for treating someone meanly, even if only behind their back.

I want people to understand… that questioning authority includes questioning one’s own. Don’t feel insecure if you are wrong; everyone is wrong sometimes.

About Dude
I keep getting reminded of how much I have to learn. Trying to get rid of the chip on my shoulder and live happily in a society whose values are different from mine. So far so good. I want to reform public education, especially health education, and live off the grid. And I love you.

As far as third-person pronouns go, … female all the way, the only time I respond to the old name/pronoun is when I’m on the job. In my line of work, being uncommunicative isn’t an option (baking & pastry student).

I’m attracted to… I’m still figuring out my sexuality, but I’m attracted to women, especially other trans-women.

When people talk about me, I want them to… realize that people are so much more than the single facet that you see at first glance. You need to get beneath the surface to see their true beauty.

I want people to understand… as much as I prefer that everyone gets my name and gender correct the first time around, I feel even better when the people who don’t, automatically correct themselves, regardless of who they’re talking too.

As far as third-person pronouns go, … she and her. Shklee and shkler would work too.

I’m attracted to… Men, women, everything that falls in between the cracks. I find myself more often attracted to the personality first, and then I’ll find the things I think make the person “hot” afterward. But honestly, if I were to say one physical thing that catches my eye, it’s definitely a cute butt!!!

When people talk about me, I want them to… smile, feel positive energy & love, get an urge to hug someone :)

I want people to understand… how fluid gender and sexuality actually are, I want for more people to feel comfortable and safe in bending these norms. Even if they just want to step outside of themselves for one night and wear a moustache and stuff their jeans and slow dance with a close friend. Drag Queens, “feminine” queer men and out transmen and transwomen have always been my heroes. I love them with every part of my being and have sosososo much respect and reverence for them. They’re all amazing, two-spirited beings :)
