Birthday today and, a annoucement thing. (2016)
9 years ago
Today Feb 18th is my Birthday. Im officially 24 now and another day has gone by. I have a job and working the best I can to move to the next step of my life, Just taking it day by day.
Now.. I have basically something I need to talk about. most of my close friends already know but this has been a difficulty for years now. Ive been trying to talk to others to make sure I understand how I feel on a personal level. I didnt want to start throwing words that wouldnt or shouldnt apply in some way. I will say some people may have notice with how my icons have been lately or not. This is not easy for me as how much I am concern of a sort of response but im going to explain it like this..
To me, Ive been dealing and going through Gender issues. And its been very complicated to explain and I didnt want to throw terms even though my sister and others have said they DO apply to me. being consider a Trans is one thing that Ive been told that does apply to me, and that you dont have to be transitioning or starting too to be consider. I feel I am female, always have been, but look male yes.. and from there its even harder as when ti comes into question of transiting. its difficult to answer. I do but dont.. I feel am Female. but ok with my male side as a "Shell" as it were. genderfluid is another word to use in this situation but its like complicated even more in my body in my head.
I know people are going to be confused under "fireboy" name and being honest it was a name I made when I was young and didnt take it serious. and years later I now have a name I use. A fursona name. Taya Erindra. This to me is who I am, fursona wise and my life. Its even harder when I created a male side shell as Coi Erindra. they are both me, but are siblings to me as well.
IM sorry to all who feels this is odd or anything of the sort. im still the same Person you know me as, just a lot of personal issues ive been dealing with for a very long time. I wanted to be open for once so people understand so im not trying to hide around it. I already have badges and artwork (which im uploading soon my new ref). But I wanted to get it out there and not feel hidden. Thanks to all my friends of support for the past years and now im trying to be more open. Be Wonderful everyone, and Thank you.

And all your friends will accept you for what ever you choose and how you want things to be :)
Also, maybe consider making a new account on here and start with your new name ^x^ link all your friends to your new account an such!
It's really good to see you so open about this. I know it takes a lot of guts to openly talk about this kind of stuff. It definitely won't change how I look at you as a friend
