Hey-o! I'm Kylee.

I'm really not sure how to go about this.  It's been several years since I've joined a CD&T community, the first I left due to negative reception to my personal opinions and beliefs.  I'm an open-minded, free-thinking person who will accept anybody and everybody and that group was so closed minded and non-accepting it was harmful to me, so I left.  Here's to a better second attempt.

So... As the title says, I'm Kylee.  Ky for short, Kynimer as longer nickname and for my PSN and Minecraft accounts, and Kylee Nikole Merc (Mers, not merk) if I'm in serious trouble... :P.  I am 27 years old, and six years into transition/trying to get out of the closet.  I was born male, raised hella Christian and today identify as a pagan woman (Specifically; a Gaian Priestess, though the priestess part is not self-identification but rather qualification).  Don't let this turn you off if you're Christian; I love all people and I don't judge until judged. Personal choice, not act of rebellion or hatred; Honest~.  My background includes a lot of stereotypical "guy things" (Computers, robotics, cars, etc), but I suppose that's to be expected seeing as I've always been a bit gothic/punk+tomboyish.  The good thing is that it's almost universally accepted that women working on their own cars is sexy, so I'll run with it.  It's actually part of that background that lead me back searching for a community so I can connect with others that maybe followed similar paths and maybe use that background to help others.

Things I still need help with are make-up and hair removal, self-esteem, and being brave enough to girl-out.  Last night I went out with a good friend of mine after work to see the new xXx movie (I squealed when I saw Ruby Rose...) wearing a waist trainer, and some 3D printed breast forms that I designed and made myself (Remember my robotics interest?  😉 )... It was terrifying, liberating, and horribly exciting all at the same time... Unfortunately, it wasn't all that obvious either because I spent the majority of the night with my torso hidden under a billowing black trench coat... I keep telling myself; baby steps... I have one picture of the night if people would like me to share.  The quality is crap, but a good friend of mine (Who I took the picture for) says I nailed the look, so I'm happy.  Her exact words, actually, were "Woo! Look at you! Damn, girl!"

That's... pretty much me and the last few hours of my life in a nutshell.  If you want to know more, get to know me, or whatever, just ask... I'm an open book. I'm off to work now, so I'll catch you all a bit later~

Blessed be,
KNM
