Sugar Baby Love

About Me

I'm a 22 year-old, pre-op transgirl, and as far as I know the only one out at UM. Thus, I'm tending to find myself in the growing role of the lone MTF voice on campus (though I always have backup from my peeps at spectrUM ;)). Despite that, I'd love nothing more than to be just a "normal" girl, if there is such a thing. I now come wit full-time femle goodness!! I'm finally enjoying my life in general and college life specifically.I'm also your typical aspiring author, with a few rough screenplays under my ever-increasing collection of belts and my first stab at a novel/novella on the way.I'm formerly an Eagle Scout and Varsity track stud. It's funny how things turn out.More about me... I appreciate nothing more than a dry wit, and I think Oscar Wilde is funnier than most people to come across in the last hundred years (excepting maybe Rodney Dangerfield and Christopher Titus). I appreciate romance in the traditional sense,and nothing makes me melt quicker. I want to learn to dance better. I plan on picking up t'ai chi this semester. My tastes in music range from Bad Religion to Celine Dion, with a helping of Eurodance on the side. My virtues include loyalty and perserverence, while my vices include vanity and snippiness.

My Interests

Writing, reading, hangin', flirting, shopping, dancing.

I'd like to meet:

Prince Charming, or at least as close as they make 'em these days. People with interesting ideas about gender, trans and otherwise. People who are highly quotable, clever, and can banter well. Anarcho-anythings, but only if they don't take themselves too seriously. Someone who can teach me to dance.I DON'T LIKE:Transphobes. Any sort of bigot, for that matter. Guys who won't stop demanding more pictures (you'll have them when I want you to have them)! People who refuse to type halfway in English. People who use religion as an excuse not to think. People who leave others hanging.Oh, and people who DON'T PUT A FULL PIC OF THEMSELVES ON THEIR PROFILE. It's only myspace, so what are you so ashamed of? If you don't have a pic, and not just of your crotch, I probably won't friend you. Or if you blur out your face. Or if you are obsssed with the word "sissy" (I HATE that fucking word). Just so you know.

I edited my profile with Thomas’ Myspace Editor V3.6 !

The speech I gave for Transgender Remembrance Day on the Rock

I thought I would open by describing what it feels like to be transgendered to those who may not understand it. I was going to compare being and feeling female to a drug, one that is powerfully addict...
