I despise photographs of myself. . . immensely. But these absolutely TERRIBLE ones keep making it online, somehow. Apparently people want to know what I look like, to find me at cons. . . I. . . guess?
Enter dumb photo I in-expertly took of myself. Notice how it's just my face, and not a fugly full-body shot. Yeah. Chicks without breasts don't photo well. We just don't. Please stop?
My hair color changes from con-to-con, but. . . it'll pretty much always be this length from now on. So now you know how to find me. . . and hopefully, no more pictures of me will make it online. Please?

You look like you like the punk style, I think it works for you, everybody has self image issues. . . in some form or another, I have only ever taken 2 photos of myself and I still hate them somewhat but it had to be done. Just keep pushing through life! Cause that's how life goes.
You know, I don't get this at all: You repeatedly state explicitly that you're 'physically' female, and imply that you're cognitively male, yet when someone addresses you as masculine (which is, more often than not, merely used as the generic grammatical gender), you insist that you're female. It's a shame, too, because you'd make a cute guy.
*shrug* I understand what you were talking about, but my point was who are we to judge her gender identity. It may seem confusing or whatever to others, but ultimately it's her business and it would be best to just respect that rather than confront it and suggest she go nicely into some little category.
I know it's teh interwebz and such but the way in which you pointed it out seemed to be "calling her out" on it, which is a bit rude.

I randomly found this just now, although it seems like it was posted awhile ago. . . so lemme reply.
I don't care whether I'm addressed as a 'he' or as a 'she'. It actually makes me giggle every time someone online addresses me as a he. If I had a choice, like if I'd had a box to check at birth. . . male would have been what I'd chosen. But this is the genetic card I drew, and I'm opposed to mutilating myself through surgery (not that I have a problem with people who do, I just prefer to remain natural, myself) so this is the way I'm gonna stay. I actually have a hormone deficiency, which is why I appear so masculine. There isn't anything I can do about it at this stage of my life, so I make the best of what I've got.
My insistence with people on FA that I'm female, if I've ever expressed it, has been to clarify it so people know how to FIND me at conventions. I've gotten more notes than I can remember at this point from people who wanted to meet me at cons, and went looking for a man. Ironically, sometimes these people DO find me, meet me, and leave unaware that I was a female. I consider that a compliment at this point in my life. . . it means the way I present myself is masculine enough to fool.
I actually have a brother that many mistake as my twin, and he's adorable, so I know pretty well how I'd look as a male. It's unfortunate, but what are you gonna do?

Was anticipating horror from the way you always talk about yourself, but you're good looking! I love the hair. ^_^ You look like a chick I was crushing on back in high school... she was part of our crazy punk-outcast scene. ...anyway, thanks for the photo up! I like associaing faces with people.
*has his own naughty thoughts, which may or may not overlap with your own*
I can understand how you feel about photos, because I don't like having pictures taken of me, either. But I honestly and genuinely think you're gorgeous. And "chicks without breasts" are underrated in my opinion...
Rar. Thank you for sharing, ma'am. Ignore the moron up there and any more queuing up to run their mouths just because they don't know any better. You're gorgeous, and that's a fact. *nod*

Girl, FUCK whatever anyone else says. You're a cute sassy spitfire with a heart of gold and nothin' any lowlife troll has to say is gonna change that. I think you're a DAMN amazing person with gumption, strong work ethics, and a gifted artist. More than your cute looks, you being YOU is what makes you the prettiest.
So don't stop being awesome, and fuck people like Xmaster1. He's a limp-dicked coward who, from what I see, is both ugly outside AND inside:

From one girl to another, you definitely are pretty :3 Your hair and eyes are really pretty <3 Ignore what the trolls say, especially that one dude above. He isn't all too good looking either, and are ya gunna take someone who's artist profile says 'penis penis penis' seriously? :P

Hmm...there's something about your look that's familiar. Not sure what though, as I know we've never met (and doubt we've ever been in the same state at the same time, being a Michigan native). Maybe it's the "I refuse to conform the societies definition of beautiful" look. I still think you're selling yourself short in your own assessment of your looks. I mean, I see no scars, no blemishes, your skin looks remarkably clear, though it is a smallish photo. It looks like you take good care of yourself, and you don't try to look like someone you're not. You plan to look like you. Personally, I prefer girls who don't put on five pounds of makeup and try for hours to look like supermodels. At that point it's just a disguise, and I'd rather see the real person.
Hope this doesn't sound creepy, but you look good to me.

Aw! Rukis! You're so cute! I want to gobble you up and cuddle you!
>>; I know what you mean about photos though, I hate getting my photo taken, bullying in highschool, being flat chested, and having horrid self image does that too a girl. But, you find a way to get over it.
Anyhow, you're so cute! Like super cute! :3 I'll be sure to drop in on you at one of these cons, and give you flowers. >:3 Sweep you off your feet, mhm! -Naughty innuendo insertion.-

Don't think wrongly when I say this or think I'm a weirdo, but I think spikey hair on a girl is very cute and cool. I don't try to think of myself on how I look, I like how I look and don't care what people say, if this describes you in this way, then your doing the right thing. =)
honestly I never would've guessed this face to match the person behind the screen. And not to sound creepy but I was pleasantly surprised! you have a lot of strength in your eyes and I like your chin, hi5 you rule rukis.
Dont be ashamed of who you are... most furries look like creepy fat trolls, and that you are not

I always find it really interesting to see the face behind the art. Kinda the same thing when I see pictures of warcraft friends and finally have a face to associate with the ventrilo voice lol.
I love your hair, always thought the pixie cut on girls is awesome because it gives a spunky look

In light of some of the rather dickish comments retarded trolls left, I would like to tell you that I think you’re very beautiful. And I sincerely mean that. You look like the kind of chick I would crush on actually ^//^
I love your hair. I wish I didn’t have retarded super curly hair, so I could cut it in some awesome way like that. You look like a chick with attitude. Me likey ^_^

Um...Rukis? You're too hard on yourself. You look perfectly fine. If you'll allow it, I'd even say attractive. *nod* I really shouldn't talk, though. I'm the same way when it comes to self criticism...worse, probably. x.x
Oh...and um... *inserts mental image of three white horses...running through mud* There. Dirty thought for ya. ^^

you dont always have to use pictures. i 1st learned what you looked like from this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oIa4PURU1aY
and this way i can hear your voice, and know more about you :D

I should add, as a fellow shorthair-person, that if you've gotten "dike," "little boy," etc comments, thats an inevitable part of having short hair. I suspect that is one reason why you criticize yourself. You don't actually look like that. I don't think I look masculine at all and I've struggled with that problem for years. It used to bug me enough that I've donated 2 feet of hair in the last couple years (hearing a few mean comments, deciding to grow it out, chop it back off, repeat process).
People are just assholes like that.

Aww rukis i would say you look very cute, you are very different for having shorter hair which makes you stand out. Most girls try and look cute and sexy but it comes out way too much and to me turns me away from them but your care free look (not saying that you do take care of yourself cause i bet you do ^^) is actually really attractive and beautiful. To me your a very adorable looking girl also you look very very very artsy, i know two girls at my school who look similar in a way to you one had hair that was pink at the back then went to a red up front.
i think you look really good, even though you look tired, if yer ever in alberta and are lookin to go to a movie (possible date :D) drop me a line :)
your one of the people i look up to, you've made a really good impression with all yer posts, dont let little shits like the 3poster down get to you, life is hard and some people dont understand that
Cheers

One of the reasons that there are so few images of me in existence, is that i hate how i look and could never understand why some people consider me attractive, especially my lover, but i figure in my case there's no accounting for taste, or lack there of...
Guess i'm just getting too old to care anymore, and if you'll take a bit of advice from what i've learnt these past 47 years, it's not how you look on the outside that counts, but what you feel on the inside... and you've got some great stuff going on in your heart and your head!
BTW: i agree with the majority of the comments that you look awesome!

If you don't think you photograph well then go to Thalian, the convention photographer, plaintively offer him a sketch in return for a brief portrait session, and (without going being so rude as to actually volunteer his services), I have a shrewd suspicion that he'd gladly prove you wrong. Don't be put off by his possibly-ominous appearance: five seconds of conversation will amply demonstrate what an enormous and gentle heart lies underneath the clothing and the beard.
For my part, I think you look like a perfectly good human, and I wag my tail at the thought of fanboying you at the EF. (Don't worry: despite my enthusiasm, applicable self-restraint will be applied. *wag*)

"Chicks without breasts don't photo well"...You can ignore me if you wish, but...what? Are you saying you actually need a D4...(or big ass cup, dunno, I'm a dude, pardon my ignorance) to "photo well"?
I'm sorry, but I have to say that you look pretty in this photo (Flirt alert; don't give a damn...with all your respect).
To be honest with you, I though you were a guy. NEVERTHELESS, it was not from this photo that I assumed that, but from your comic (Cruelty) and some of your artworks that I watched in this site. Later on, I would discover for myself that you are a woman by reading some of the comments of those artworks.
Moving on. It is not like I prefer to see the full body of yours instead of your face only. I like this photo, but I cannot help myself (to point out to you) that, breast-less or not, I will still love (or have a crush) of the person who can create such amazing works. So, yeah pretty much thats it. Next time take that camera, take a picture of you (in anyway you are pleased with yourself), post it here or whatever you want to post it (completely up to you, that is) and write something like; "this is how I am, don't like it? Go fuck yourself. I give a rat-ass what you see pleases you or not"...maybe not that harsh, but you got the idea.
Anyhow, this is just my opinion. Hope this cheers you up a little bit (who am I to try to cheer you up? Dunno, but I did it because I wanted to so. So there you go; apologies again) Love yourself girl, don't let assholes like Xmaster1 turn you down and ...
"Insert Dirty thoughts here" ...So, what should I do next? Mmm, is getting hot in here....
Cheers

...Dunno what to say this one, but I'll try to argue with you anyways. *Chuckles*, my opinions still continue...
"kind of necessary to make you appear feminine..."
Asides from the physique, there are somethings (could be more) that could be feminine. Attitude, character, mannerisms, voices, vaginas, just to name a few. In short, you don't need a pair of boobs to be feminine.
"..unfortunately..."
Indeed, unfortunately. All I can say is this...
Screw Society. Screw Fashion. Screw Models. Screw Barbie Dolls. Screw Plastic Surgeries. Screw Playboy. Screw Lady Gaga. Screw Angelina Jolie. Screw Britney Spears. Screw Zig Zag. And screw other sex symbols.
You- "but when I say 'no breasts', I mean. . . NONE. I look like a dude"
Me- "but when I say 'dudes like me don't give a damn', I mean...DUDES LIKE ME DON"T GIVE A DAMN". Breast-less and dude-looking, I'll daringly say to you "So? I'll still will try to conquer your heart"
"As a guy, I guess it's a bit hard to understand"
Don't quite understood this; Is it for me is hard to understand? Probably you're right. Damn, everything has to be complicated, ain't it?
Alas, is just me. Then again, there could be others that could have the same ideas as I do (You never know). All I'm trying to accomplish is to let you know that there are dudes (they do exist, believe it or not) that like ladies like yourself, and try to give you a big happy grin.

I think you look damn sexy!
*insert your own dirty thoughts here*
I think you look great!
BTW I am pan sexual and it just means that I don't have any gender preference. Your personality is what sells. You could be a transvestite or a hermaphrodite and I couldn't' care what plumping (or not) you got down there.

Whenever I looked for you at RMFC I just saw the Cruelty books and your style is very recognizable and once I saw you I was like "squee! There she is!" I thought you looked bad ass and maybe a little intimidating to talk to you xD But then again I was a little shy specially since I was givin ya something. All in all I love the way you look! You kick ass gurl! =P
Did I miss something? Someone made a nasty comment? What the hell.
Anyway, I must say, you look fucking AWESOME. :D I don't care what anyone says, you're bloody gorgeous. Looks like you sort of have the kind of punk/rock/tomboy thing going for ya, maybe. I don't know, but it's fucking awesome. Girls with short, spiky hair are the BEEEEESSSSST. :D

Hey I for one think you look just fine. :) Don't worry with the stupid comments, the world Fur Affinity is full of dicks and stupid children. Pay them no mind. Some people think I kill babies or something when they see how I look. lol Just because I look mean does not really reflect my true personality. Don't let others comments or labels bring you down. Stay true to your self!
Lmfao Rukis i literaly think you judge yourself way to harshly. lolz you actualy remind me of one of my bestfriends haha. but seriously Stop telling you're self that you are not beautiful because you are.. anyone that can create such beautiful art and characters must be beautiful on the inside and out...and this is coming from a gay guy so u know this is true :D Gay guys don't lie *true statement* BTW you shoulod come down to midwest Furfest!! in chicago!!!!! ahhh!! oh and cruelty made me cry....it was awsome thank you so much for writing it. oh and ever thought about writing a novel as well?
