    I was digging through old forums and saw the post of a fellow mod a ways back and I kind of thought about it. For a while, I've been rolling as 'male' generally on SGM, because I know my voice is a little on the masculine side (though, luckily, people still insult me for it being too feminine under the assumption that I'm a guy ;P), and it's... admittedly a bit of a toxic environment usually, so I don't exactly feel good about trying to get people to call me by what I prefer.

    I would like to let y'all know that I'm transgender, though, and identify as a female. I'm not necessarily going to fault you if you happen to refer to me as male or whatever, it's easy to forget or make mistakes, but I think what that other moderator (who I'll only name if they wanna' be named later, it's a rather old post) did and the response that it got gave me a little bit of inspiration and hope to come out to y'all as well. If I'm gonna' be moderating a community, I might as well trust them a little bit!

    This isn't that important or anything, I just thought I'd kinda' let you know. If you keep referring to me as male, whatever, but you'll score bonus points with me if you do otherwise. <3 If you have any questions or anything of the sort, I'll answer them, as long as they're made in good faith.

    There been a couple of transgenders who joined the community here and there, and they have all been welcomed with how open they were. I just think the community Regulars have gotten used to it, ofcourse you cant help but meet a couple of disrespectful randomers from time to time, but the community Regulars will often be understandable towards these things ^~^

    I don’t know why but you seem to be hated by people for doing your staff duties? And maybe othere are trying to pick on you and blame it on you being a staff or whatever but just know that there are people in this community who are nice, welcoming and friendly, pretty sure you know that yourself, you do you and fuck whoever tries to make you feel different
