Note about the wording of these comments: I wrote this and made this deviation before I'd outed myself to my mother, to dA, or to almost anyone else but the closest of friends and my fiancee, Karise (*glindalupin ) and because of that was very insecure about being public. Since then I've changed a lot and am more confident, but I'll be leaving my comments here as they are...because now they are as much a part of this "art" as the deviation itself.

I support everyone for who they are.

As far as sexual orientation and sexual identity go, I'm bisexual and transgendered. I also identify with some subcultures of the GLBT community, such as leather culture, etc.

In reality, I could technically be accurately described as most or all of the following: transgendered, transsexual, transvestite, androgyne, genderqueer, bigender, bisexual, pansexual, and polysexual...but that's too much of a mouthful.

Although I don't consider myself religious, I do consider myself extremely blessed to be in a stable relationship with my soul-mate. She's also bisexual and accepts me on every level. I'm more comfortable around her than around anyone else in my life...including myself. Please give her a visit:

So let's see, I took that picture of myself, added in the towers which were originally drawn in charcoal, added in a lot of vectors, embellished a bit, then presto! (Quite a while later!)

Having the picture of myself to begin with was the inspiration for the larger picture here, but I had planned to make something somewhat like this from the start. Although I said I'm transgendered that only means for me that I identify with both genders equally but I live (at least for now) as a male, so I was extremely pleased at how well the photo came out after minimal make-up and no shaving or anything.

Anyways, I maybe could have cleaned this up and made it nicer, but I like it the way it is, and I sincerely hope its message is clear.

Have a great day!

"I didn't choose to be this way, I simply choose to acknowledge it."

NOTE to anyone that knows me personally: If you don't already know this about me, congratulations on finding this deviation. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me, however you must be civilized about it. I've known these things about myself for an incredibly long time...since around the age of 7-9 years old for my sexual identity and around 9-10 years old for my sexual orientation, so don't act like this is something brand new or something that I decided to do out of the blue. It's who I am and I love it about myself.
You can't change it.
