    e.g. Who do you want to be like, this could be trans related or not. Like I'd love to end up looking like Henry Cavill as superman one day... :lol:

    Though I'm especially inspired by Aydian Dowling, in the trans community. He's such a great example.

    If we're talking looks, then... maybe a little like Demi Lovato or Avril Lavigne, maybe a cross between the two?

    I mean Avril Lavigne is 30 and still looks 20, so... ._.

    If we're talking just in general personality, then... Demi Lovato or Avril Lavigne? XD

    I'm sorry, I've been listening to too much Avril in the past couple weeks. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    And I've always loved Demi. ^^

    It might be a bit odd, but right now it's Sean Murray, the guy who's helping to make No Man's Sky. He's just so lovely and carefree and happy and accepting. I just feel warm whenever I hear him speak.

    I'd love to be more like him.

    I'd love to be like Monkey D. Luffy most of all. He is my inspiration for being carefree in not letting small stuff get him down, being adventurous, brave and totally shameless.

    In terms of looks, I'm really not picky. If I could pass for an ordinary or plain girl, I'd be happy.

    Princess Joules and Autumn Ashphodel from a trans perspective. I also really like Ryan Cassata, his songs are very inspiring. Hands of Hate gives me goosebumps.

    From general perspective, Marilyn Manson, or in the newer wave of bands, Chris Motionless. They both really inspire me to be the best person I can, and to always be myself.

    Anna Varney is a role model of sorts... she is trans and has an absolutely beautiful voice and makes the most chilling, magical music from the worst kind of pain. She inspires me to keep going, and even when I feel horrible, to make art out of the pain. If your bored, look her up, she is interesting, to say the least.

    One of my biggest role models has been Jerick Hoffer; a singer, actor, and drag performer who won Season 5 of RuPaul's Drag Race.

    He got me through a lot of the worst moments of my depression a few years ago and is my name sake. He's just so...strong in the face of adversity and is proud to be different. He's just that dorky little ray of sunshine and that figure who cheers you up no matter how blue of a mood you're in.

    Dylan O'Brien and Connor Franta. Both for looks and personality and as a role model. They're just so adorable and dorky and lovely.

    Within the the trans community, I have to agree with Aydian Dowling. He's just achieved so much and that's amazing. Also Chase Ross. He was the first trans YouTuber I watched, he helped make so much sense of my life and is the reason I'm starting to become more involved with YouTube.

    I'd love to wake up as either Troye Sivan, Tyler Oakley or Sam Smith. They're amazing personalities and inspiring people - and good role models.

    I guess I'll just copy/paste my post from a thread I made on the same topic about six months ago.

    I also forgot to say Ian Somerhalder for his work with animals.
    and fashion wise...Neal Caffrey from White Collar.
