new person :)

Hello! I realized I didn't even introduce myself before posting an advice topic.

My name's homotions. That's 'homo' (short for homosexual) and 'emotions' (short for nothing) put together. It's actually a word I came up with about.. 20 hours ago. lol

Without using 'labels' here is my sexual/gender identity. Do try to follow along, but if you can't, it's okay. I can be a little confusing sometimes(but I'm sure we all can be confusing). It also tells a lot about me, so yeah

I was born with a penis. I like other people with penises. In my mind, I more womanly than manly, but I don't have a problem with my man side of things. I do my hair, I do my make up, I do my own nails, I take at least 15 minutes in the shower, and then another 10 in the bathroom getting my hair done(I have curly hair, so I just put some stuff in it, dry it a bit, add some more stuff, dry it more, and then add one more thing to it, and then done). I love my curls, btw. AND my eyelashes.

I don't necessarily care about if I get my make up done, and if I haven't shaved in a couple of days, the most I will put on is foundation. Every day I would love to wake up looking like a girl, but (since I'm bigger) I have fat in my face that hides some manly features(but others are still prominent). I do not do drastic things to my eyebrows, because the smaller and higher they are, the more I look like that one guy from the Goonies(the bad guys' brother or whatever.. I forget his name), but I do keep up with my eyebrows to make sure there aren't strays or a unibrow forming.

I don't care about the clothes I wear. I grew up on the foundations as long as you have clothes to cover yourself, food to fuel yourself, and warmth to (you guessed it) warm yourself, you're golden.

Over all, my experience as ^that^ has been a good one. People don't make fun of me(at least that I am aware(except this one b****, but she's a b****)) and the people around me are accepting and loving. I like to think that I have had fairytale experience being LGBTQ, I know a lot of people's experiences can be nightmarish.. horror-movie-ish, even.

I love learning. Currently I am teaching myself Korean. I already know a little bit of German, a tiny bit of French, and about a semester's worth of American Sign Language(I teach myself, so it's hard to say exactly). I've taught myself to play the piano, guitar, and ukulele, and also how to knit, crochet, and whatever else. (Technically, I didn't teach myself, I gathered the resources and information to learn by myself, via youtube, other internet resources, or books.. except for German, I took 2 years in High School, and also learned from a family member).

I love musicals(RENT and Les Mis being my top 2, with Wicked in 3rd(although, I've never seen it... I know, shoot me now.). I love Glee(I legitimately get full of glee from watching it. I like American Horror Story, Bones, and Game of Thrones, too. Favorite characters from all of these: Angel, Eponine, Glinda, SANTANA(and now Dani, because DEMI LOVATO IS AMAZING), AHS: any character played by Jessica Lange & Francis Conroy & Lily Rae(look them up), Bones & Angela, Daenerys Targaryen & Bram Stark & Margaery Tyrell, respectively

I'm an open book. I don't usually keep things(about me) private. If there's something someone wants to know, they usually get their answer. In total, I've only kept about 3 things about myself private, only to tell them to a close friend or two.

I'm also a good secret keeper. Or information keeper. or whatever. But here's the catch: You have to tell me when I'm supposed to keep it private. Like I said, I don't keep things private, and my mind is kind of stuck in that way of thinking. But, if you let me know to stfu about it, I will.

So yeah. I'm glad there's a place like this for LGBTQ individuals. YAY!

Also, I always write a novel when I type. I apologize.
