Do you think of yourself as having feminine/masculine traits, do you think you're another gender altogether, or do you think you actually have no gender?
I'm quite feminine but I just don't identify with any gender. |

I was known as beau99 back then, but I've since come out as transgender (agender, specifically) and now I call myself Star. I'm far more active on twitter, the link is in my signatur... |

I've been posting there for years, actually, and occasionally post a blog on my account over there as well.
Mostly updates regarding myself; I've made a few friends there actually, and they give me encouragement when I need it. |

| I take ibuprofen every day because I have chronic toothache (though that's more my fault). I also drink caffeine, despite the fact I have high blood pressure. I also do some more "recreational" things once in a while, though nothing illegal. Prescriptions though, no. I used to years ago, but they ma... |

| Isn't this the one where the Autism Speaks women says she'd drive off a bridge with her autistic daughter in the car if it wasn't for her NT daughter? Disgusting. Yeah. She said she'd rather do that than put her daughter in a public school, but still you NEVER talk about killing your own child, you... |

| I've been wondering if Germans have Asperger's Syndrome since they have always seemed to have a fixation for machines and how to make things work. I've also heard that they don't usually show emotion. There have also been a lot of scientists, such as Einstein, who were from Germany and also had Asp... |

Nope.
I'm basically really intelligent... just too impaired everywhere else.
