You can call me… Kayla, Kay, chica.

I identify as… a bisexual cross-dressing gender bending genderqueer, if you wanna put labels on it. I identify as me.

As far as third-person pronouns go, … I’m genderqueer, but I prefer “she” and “her.” I won’t get offended if I’m called “him,” because I still feel masculine. It’s never an equal balance most of the time.

I’m attracted to… intelligence, free spirits, people who aren’t afraid of letting their real colors shine and just be themselves.

When people talk about me, I want them to… try not to judge me based on physical appearance.

I want people to understand… that I am who I am, and that will never change.

About Kayla
I live in Montreal and love it. It is a warm and embracing city most of the time, filled with understanding people. I have great friends who take me as I am, and they don’t judge me by the clothes that I wear or the lifestyle choices that I make. I have embraced who I truly am, and have become whole over the last year. I love to dance and just hang with friends til the wee hours of the morning :) I love women’s clothing, and they just feel right when I wear them. Genderbend til the END…..

You can call me… Avery Gage

I identify as… a genderqueer lesbian who makes exceptions for handsome trans men.

As far as third-person pronouns go, … he, she, they, as long as it’s not rude I don’t care what you call me.

I’m attracted to… eyes, smiles, contagious laughter, intelligence, humor, people who are humble, and nice hands/arms.

When people talk about me, I want them to… say I’m a caring and good person, regardless of gender and sexual attraction.

I want people to understand… I’m forgetful 48% of the time and forgiving 50% of the time, but that still leaves 2% for those who push too far.

You can call me… Nic… or Nicole for long. (Neither are my birth name, but I NEVER use my birth name, regardless of being male or female.)

I identify as… I am a human.

I am Italian.

I am a New Yorker (but one of those rare nice New Yorker who yearns to be Californian.)

I am a bigender male who prefers to be androgynous or female.

As far as third-person pronouns go, … I don’t really care if I am called him or her.

“Him” makes it easier for people who are used to me being a “him,” and when I am presenting as androgynous.

I really like it when people use “her” but I won’t bite your head off if you don’t use it.

I’m attracted to… I am absolutely, without a doubt, 100% bisexual, but I’ve only been truly emotionally connected to one other person. That’s another story I don’t care to discuss.

When people talk about me, I want them to… talk about my talents in photography and filmmaking.

Talk about my good qualities and forget the bad.

If they should feel compelled to talk about how I am bisexual, bigendered, androgynous, I want them to talk like it’s a good thing as opposed to something I have to “live with.”

I want people to understand… negative comments hurt.

Negative anything hurts. (Except a double negative because that always makes a positive [insert math lesson here]). I don’t stay within gender boundaries because gender is fluid.

I am not your regular average Joe (or Jane) but that’s not because of the way I present and the gender I identify with. I am different because everyone is different. If we were all the same we would be big blobs of gray matter. And blobs of gray matter are no fun. (Just ask high school lunch ladies.)

You can call me… Bizzy

I identify as… genderqueer, stoner furry. My mother’s child, a friend, a listener, an artist, a creative soul way out of it’s time.

As far as third-person pronouns go, … people use feminine pronouns, I could care less.

I’m attracted to… humor and beautiful souls. Girls, boys, FtM, Mtf, genderqueer folk.

When people talk about me, I want them to… talk about how I make them laugh, cry, and think

I want people to understand… “normal” is just another way to make the world prejudice. That androgyny and pansexuality ARE real things. There are actual gray areas.

About Bizzy
I’m a 19-year-old artist. A proud furry and a very proud stoner. I like to push boundaries and make people realize themselves. I’m not afraid of who I am, or what I’m passionate about.

I just want someone to see me for me, I cannot define myself any more than that and I wish other people would stop trying to.

What’s your experience?

And what are you thinking about gender right now?

You can call me… Padraig, or rarely, Ari.

I identify as… I hate to use my stock response, but it amused me that “a genderqueer, polyamorous goth” so closely fit how I describe myself in most places aka: I am a polyamorous, pansexual, deeply kinky, genderqueer, switch, goth rocker with a flair for the dramatic, and sex drive like a rabbit on Viagra… :p

I operate a lot on learned male mannerisms due to not needing another reason for people to castigate me aside from being strange, fat, or a geek. Only if I am extremely comfortable with someone will I let my natural, more femme side and mannerisms show.

As far as third-person pronouns go, … I just stick with he/him as I am used to it. I don’t feel they encompass me, but they don’t bother me either.

I’m attracted to… femmes of all gender presentation (yes that does mean cis, trans, CD etc…), Queer, Tall, Big & Beautiful, Geeks, Gamers, Intelligence, Thoughtful people, Goths, Therians, Vamps, etc… I am actually very open and easily connect with many people, but everything above adds to the appeal.

When people talk about me, I want them to… realize that under the big barbarian-esque exterior, I am actually a giant teddy bear and a very tender, emotional person.

I want people to understand… genderqueer can’t, and never will fit into a box or be neatly labeled and packaged.

Just because I seem to be comfortable in my own skin doesn’t mean that I am.

Just because I don’t struggle outwardly as genderqueer does not mean that I am not struggling with immense inner turmoil.

Looks are deceiving… Some see a large confident picture of masculinity, I look inside and see an insecure butch girl trying to define herself, but just not sure how.

About Padraig

I think I may have finally found my mate, she is nearly my opposing gender variant and the only person I have completely opened up to.

I think it would be nice if EVERYONE was able to be first judged on their character, not what might be under their clothes. I think that androgyny might sometimes be a blessing, that some people should be forced by an absence of gender presentation to consider the PERSON standing before them.

What’s your experience?

And what are you thinking about gender right now?
