    I live in SW west Texas and am very much alone out here. :icon_sad:

    I am biologically female, but have felt male my whole entire life. I am attracted to feminine men (I have no idea why). I also have a more "male" type body (broad shoulders, tall, no hips to speak of).
    I have Ehlers Danlo's Syndrome Type 3 (a human Gumby who is in constant pain) and have varioius issues because of it (Gastroparesis, Dysautonomia, structural issue,etc). I also have moderate to severe brain damage caused by a doctor's ego during birth. The baby was coming out the way he wanted it and that resulted in my skull being almost crushed. The damage has caused various neurocognative issues (severe math LD, vision issues, etc). I cannot drive, I am unemployed for now (job of 5 years was at a grocery store with a toxic environment) and having to deal with the state's disability office.

    I keep chickens and sell their eggs to the few coworkers who treated me like a human being. I also have a small herd of goats (I live with my parents), 3 dogs and 2 cats. My mom is accepting, but my dad (who is gone most of the time) thinks he is, but in reality he's stuck in the mindest of a person in the midwest during the '50s-'60s (his childhood). My one real friend is a person that draws fanart for a webcomic called Girl Genius. My audience of one for my fanfiction stories.

    I am intelligent (the psychologist who did the testing on me said I scored in the 98th percentile for reading/verbal IQ), but most people really just treat me like an idiot or a freak. I really don't fit in anywhere.

    Your animals sound cool. I'd love to see your fanart. I really really want to paint but I don't know what to paint. I love feminine men. I love a lot of kinds of men. Welcome!

    Thank you, I'll post pics of them sometime.
    I need all the support I can get.

    My mother thinks I have Ehelro Danol's (or however you spell that) too!! Partly because my family is allergic to life, not really, but it's easy to say that than list the things we are sensitive to. I have psoriasis, and I have joint pain all. The. Time. I get dizzy a lot, have a stomache ache 24/7 and I'm overall a sick person. I feel you.
