Hey, I'm new.

Hi everyone. My name's Bethany. As it happens, I am not intersexed, but I am an ally. I am female-boded (is that even an appropriate term? I don't know...) but I don't really participate in the gender dichotomy. I'm not saying that a non-gendered person and an intersexual go through the same experiences. Not at all. However, I think my gender identity is something that has... I guess, helped me, because I have strong opinions. I believe that everyone should be treated with respect regardless of chromosomes, gender identity, genitalia, and so on.

About me: I'm a college student, studying art at the University of Minnesota Duluth. I love to draw. I'm agnostic. I'm really looking forward to the end of the school year (one more week!)

And I'm working on a book. I've been working on it for a year, but I took a very long break, so now I'm only on the 23rd page. My main character is intersexed, so that's a big part of why I'm here. I need to educate myself.

I do not mean to be intrusive and I hope I will be welcome here.
