So here I am in a place where I can finally rest comfortably in my own skin. Are we all freaks here or have the well adjusted people finally just found a place to get away from the sick people who hate their own bodies and can't stand the thought of finding their sense of "self"?
Do they hate us because we are different from them? Or do they hate us because we are so obviously okay with who we are and because we wear our hard won identities so proudly? Because we remind them everytime they see us that they still don't know who the fuck they are?
Okay, fine, I am good with being called Freak, bitch, whore, or any one of a hundred other stupid, mindless, so much less than creative things I've been called over the years. Hell, I'll even wear the tags proudly. As long as I know there are other women out there like me walking the same path. Staring the blind and close-minded straight in the eye as we wait for yet another tat or piercing to heal. Watching them watch us as we adjust a garter in public, watching the "I want to be you but I don't dare..." expression in their eyes as they see the freedom we have to be exactly who we want to be.
So here is the first entry in my BLOG. Take it for what its worth. Or dismiss it as more self righteous ramblings of a psycho freak bitch. It wouldn't be the first time and I know it won't be the last. But one way or the other, something in here is bound to make you think. Or remember something someone said, or some incident. If it did, let me know. Even if its only a "fuck you, why'd you have to bring that up?" Just know this. It probably won't shut me up. It might get you an apology. But it won't shut me up.
