…if you get motion sickness, you may not want to watch this video. ;( i’m really sorry for the poor quality! nothing has gone right for me today… lots is going on for me right now, so it’s time for a life update! i’ve got two new jobs and will be moving to Japan in November, so the next few months will be insane. please bare with me as videos become a bit less frequent and some changes happen with the channel.

sorry for the long video and please do note that everything i said in the video is purely my opinion based on my experiences etc. i don’t claim to be an expert on anything…! and i totally forgot to mention how obviously i have to keep my gender under wraps during all of this being abroad business. i have to check “female” under “gender” on forms, if anyone asks i’m female, if anyone acts on the assumption that i’m female, i can’t disagree with them, etc etc. le sigh. sorry for being M.I.A. lately…! will try to do better. ;(
in this video i talk about how my anatomy (biology) affects my gender presentation/the clothing i wear. as a short, FAAB (female assigned at birth) neutrois person who dresses androgynously, shopping for clothes has always been a problem….
in this video i talk about how i’ve come to the conclusion that i won’t ever be coming out to my mom. at least, not intentionally.
my last update before moving back to America. why am i moving back to America….? life shit on me, that’s why. no, but seriously. i’m moving back “home” temporarily and will be on hiatus for a couple of weeks. bbs.
as a followup to QAC 02 – The Road to Asexuality, this video “briefly” covers my childhood and what brought me to questioning whether or not i was asexual in the first place. it should probably be noted that i am what some aces call a “non-libidoist” asexual. that is, in addition to being asexual (ie. not experiencing sexual attraction), i also happen to not experience a libido/sex drive. not having a libido/sex drive should NOT be confused with asexuality , which is simply a lack of sexual attraction. some asexuals do experience an active sex drive/libido, while others do not. either way, my lack of libido/sex drive is just something that happened alongside my asexuality; it isn’t what makes me asexual……
nighstar blurbs about how they discovered pansexuality and panromanticism.
i think that dealing with dysphoria is all about owning the situation– taking control of the things that you do have at least some control over and doing what makes you happy. for me at the moment, that involves getting a septum piercing. 😛 i happen to like certain body mods, but body mods aren’t for everyone.
to bind or not to bind….? and if so, which binder should i buy? in this video i think aloud about my binding dilemma.
