Sarah
Because I've given up giving a damn about what the world thinks of me, and trying to please everyone. I'm not going to go out of my way to be nasty to random people, but I have my beautiful friends and family, who know me as I really am, and they are the ONLY people whose opinions matter to me. I'm sweet as hell to my friends -- pure hell to those who try to fuck me over.
I've never been able to act as girls are 'supposed to': obsess over fashion and make-up, present a perfect smiling face to the world, sit quiet and bat my eyelashes at some guy, laugh at all his jokes and make none of my own. I used to run my mental state into the ground trying to be someone other than who I am; nowadays I am more myself than I have ever been before, and I'm loving it. I am my loud, geeky, music-obsessed, science-obsessed, opinionated, feminist, Pagan, bisexual self. I'm not playing to anybody's gender roles, and I am trying hard to keep myself that way, to continue to grow into myself.
After years of teenage fuckery -- nervous breakdowns, manipulative relationships, depression, you name it -- I'm out the other side, but I know I'm still young and I've still got much to learn, from people who've 'been there done that' and the general experience of stimulating, like-minded company. Hence why I'd like to join you.
