This will seem weird to some of you so I figured I'd explain why I now have a female name in my profile. I'm trans, MTF specifically. It feels weird to write and I'm sorry if this is really awkward since you've known me as a dude named "AJ" for so long. But I can't keep lying to myself and pretending I'm a man. I'm very happy with my new identity and I hope this doesn't change things too much. Thank you.

Congratulations on your brave step, Olivia, which I hope brings you lasting happiness. (One further suggestion for lasting happiness is do not see Space Jam 2.)

Not weird at all: I'm genuinely proud of you for taking a very positive step forward in your life and as AHD said, living authentically. Also I doubt if there's anyone here who would have any issue with you being trans.   Smile

Now, see, if you'd chosen to go by "Andrea Justine," you could have kept your old user name . . .  ;-)

I've always thought Olivia was a lovely name. If I may ask, what made you choose it?

I just really liked it as a name. My earliest memory of hearing that name was Animal Crossing Wild World. One of the villagers was named that and I liked it a lot.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.
