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’ve decided to come out to my family tomorrow. I’m scared, but at the same time I can’t keep this secret to myself anymore. I want them to love me for me, and even though i’ve joked with the idea and they told me they couldn’t imagine me as a boy, I think they’ll except [...]

Recently scientists have found that a specific gene can be altered to make a female body begin functioning as a male, and another to make a male function as female. Now, I am not a molecular geneticist, but my parents are, so I feel entirely capable of talking about this situation by summarizing what other [...]

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 [...]

My boy contacted me just minutes after I posted my status line this morning that said ” Life is beautiful! Be thankful, and see the beauty.” Little did I know that a miracle would be happening.
