Some people are both genders. I think you just come out the way you come out, and you have to embrace it honestly.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
You just wish sometimes that people would treat you like a human being rather than seeing your gender first and who you are second.
It's very important to me that people accept me as a transgendered female. But it's ridiculous to a lot of people and I understand that.
I think I have a part of myself which is a woman. When girls are together, they speak completely differently than when there is a guy around. But, with me, they don't see this masculine thing stopping them, and there is not this boundary.
I confused gender identity with sexual orientation. Your gender identity is about who you are, how you feel, the sex that you feel yourself to be. Sexual orientation is who you're attracted to.
I'm a female but I have a masculine side and I'm not going to negate that part of myself.
We all live in a culture that is continually isolating feminine and masculine aspects, even when they're not related to people.
Sexuality is who you are personally attracted to... But gender identity is who you are in your soul.
Gender fluidity is not really feeling like you're at one end of the spectrum or the other. For the most part, I definitely don't identify as any gender. I'm not a guy; I don't really feel like a woman, but obviously I was born one. So, I'm somewhere in the middle, which - in my perfect imagination - is like having the best of both sexes.
The way I approach the character isn't about being gay or straight. It's just about who you love. Gender has very little to do with it.
As anyone who is gay will confirm, being that way is not something you become, it is a set of emotional and physical responses that just are.
