Suggesting to a group of that we play Snow White, and that I'd happily play the title character was not something well received in the 1950s by other (or the nearby listening parents). Snippets of my difference occurred at various points throughout my childhood, adolescence, and adulthood. Playing with girls was always more preferable to playing with boys. As an adult, there was a short period when I was able to take a big leap. Going out in public was an experience I'll never forget and reflects a time I'll truly regret for its short duration. The highlight was having a smiling young construction worker call down "Hi" to me, as I was walking by. He'll never know what a huge compliment he paid me. I rode that "high" for weeks! By joining this community, I hope to gain companionship. Meeting over coffee, going to a movie, and/or walking in a park all appeal to me. I find that I crave the company of those who share this hunger, this difference and desperately want the opportunity to let our femininity be seen and (hopefully) appreciated.

My Ideal Person In order to prevent disappointments, let me say that my ideal person DOES NOT just think of me as a receptacle for semen.

The brain is a marvelous organ. I admire people for their intellect and their imagination. I have found that nearly everyone has SOMETHING intriguing about them. The trick is listening to them and understanding where they are in life's journey. Using one's imagination is great for creating opportunities. I like people who are willing to talk about their fantasies and are willing to work with me to see what we can achieve. I despise bigotry in any form. I promise to meet people on as even a playing field as we can create.

My ideal person will need to be patient. I want to get to know you. If you're interested, let me know.
