2.3 KiB
On this page I am trying to explain myself more or those things that you might wonder in my self-description. Some things that I explain here may overlap with different features.
GirlsLikeUs — I am trans woman
It simply means that I was incorrectly defined as boy at birth which I never was. I didn’t always know it, but around 14-15 Dysphoria really hit me.
I was always different from boys and I have been always bullied and I became suicidal and depressed. I was diagnosed with AS which didn’t so much, but finally I came to realization on who I am and started the progress to be recognized as myself.
As the progress is too slow in Finland I ended up starting HRT by myself (like many (if not most) of us here do) and was on it for year before getting diagnosed and getting HRT officially.
Many people have said that I am nowadays happier and smile more and other things like that and I know this is who I am.
AS - Asperger’s Syndrome
I am AS-person and you might see it from the way I write and speak. I have some over-sensitive senses like sense of hearing and it becomes difficult for me to speak if I try to look into your eyes at the same time, so I am not trying to be impolite or anything, it’s just easier to not look at you while I speak. Same applies to understanding your speaking.
Feminist
I support equal rights for everyone and the right of self-definition (or not requiring anyone to define themselves). Everyone should also be the one to choose what they do with their body (abortion, gender transition etc.) freely without complicated researchs and other people or society judging them.
Linux user
I have been used Linux since 2008, I started with Ubuntu (8.04) which I am still using. My preferred distribution is Ubuntu MATE or Ubuntu Server, but I am also familiar with other distributions, mainly Debian-deriatives.
I have experience with Fedora and other distributions from that side too and I am not entirely lost while using them, but somehow I have always preferred Debian side. Maybe it’s just that I have learned to use it.
