(man, i so wanted to title this "you think i have gender issues? NO U. also, this is kindasorta more of a rant than an actual essay or whatever. politely spewing some bile out on the internet, if you will.)
I have a lot of shit kicking around in my... Read More
WARNING: incredibly graphic language, lots of mentions of genitalia, rampant gayosity, TRAN RAGE.
you know who i hate? non-trans gay people who don't see the irony in their continued refusal to accept me as someone who might sometimes exist in the same space as them. because even though i may be... Read More
NOTE: this journal is sex related and will contain a lot of references to genitalia and people's perceptions of and relationships with such. a lot of you are very young and may want to procede with caution. also, if this subject matter offends, bothers, or just downright squicks you, you're...

this isn't going to be my usual kind of journal about these issues, you know, the kind that pretends to be all socio-political commentary and all. this is mostly just to say: sexuality is fucking weird.
because it is, you know? as per usual, let's start with myself.
this is a little apropos of nothing, but it's something i feel i need to say, especially since i seem to be ranting a lot here, so i might as well do this rant here as well.
seriously, homos, queeroids, bi kids, fags, dykes, and transkids: can we stop hating... Read More
oh yes, the kasper's got his rant on again. this time i'm taking on people who whine and whine about how oppressed they are without recognising and appreciating their own privilege.
the most pressing example that comes to mind for me is the white, middle-class, non-trans gay man who is... Read More
this is a scan from an article about me printed in a norwegian gay magazine when i was eighteen. the interview and photos were done a few months before, at gay summer camp - in the summer of '02. that's summer camp for queer kids, i went twice and i... Read More
i won't claim to have had a hard life, nor will i claim to have been victimised because of my gender or my sexuality. but i have experienced prejudice, i have experienced bigotry, and i have experienced hatred towards me because of what i am and how i live my... Read More
this is partly inspired by a particularly bigoted buzznet blog that i won't bother linking to because the person doesn't deserve any more attention for it than they've already received, and partly by a conversation i overheard today involving the teenage... Read More
that's me, happily posing for the kindergarten photographer in my big pink wooly sweater and with long braids which were soon to be cut off (my mother still has my hair from back then, in one long braid, she will never get rid of it).
this is something i wrote a few years ago. i'm putting it up here because i'm getting back into this whole honesty thing and i'm trying to open for some discussion. or something. i don't know. it's probably a bit teenage angsty, but then it was written when i was... Read More
i've been thinking a lot about my sexuality, why my sexuality is the way it is, how i relate to it, and how, if in any way, it differs from how most people define their sexualities and their reasons for doing so.
since i made my last journal post, i've been thinking a lot about my experiences and how they've made me the person i am today. i've been thinking about the importance of remembering who i used to be, the way i used to live, and to what extent that has... Read More
when i was fourteen i came out as bisexual and when i was sixteen i started consciously identifying as queer. the next year, i gave up on trying to be what my body and society told me i was, a girl, and came out as a transsexual guy. then followed... Read More
