Do I see the beautiful young girl everyone wants me to be?
Or do I see the handsome young man, I know that I am?
Look past this beautiful mask and see the fragile, easily broken shell that I’ve become to be.

I had my first breast exam today, I have a large lump in my right breast and it turns out it may be a Cyst, which isn’t a big deal, however I did a lot of research on it and it turns out you need to get it drained and it never really goes away. [...]

Hi!
Let’s begin by introducing me. My name is Katherine Jane DeIrlande. I am a male to female transgendered chick.
The name that has been given me was the one that my mother chose before I was born, so not much thinking on my part to come up with a new, and exciting name. I have since a [...]
