š Embracing My Inner Freak: Proud, Unapologetic, and Slightly Unhinged! š
The other day, someone hurled āfreak of natureā at me like it was an insult.
Honey, pleaseāI take it as a compliment! As a trans woman, Iāve collected slurs like PokĆ©mon cards (gotta catch āem all?), but letās be real: Being a freak means Iām the glitch in the matrix that makes life interesting.
While everyoneās blending into the beige wallpaper of mediocrity, Iām out here sparkling like a disco ball in a blackout.
Freaks? Weāre the ones who flip the script and change the worldābecause who wants normal when you can have fabulous?
It all comes down to flipping the script or changing your inner perspective of who you are and want to be!
Like this…
Iām not everyoneās cup of tea? More like Iām a shot of espresso in a world of decafātoo strong for some, but exactly what you need to wake up!
Skip the knee-jerk judgments, get to know me, and bam: Youāll discover Iām hilariously witty, scary-smart, and cooler than the other side of the pillow.
My mission? Warping perceptions one chuckle at a time. Remember the movie in 2000 called “Pay It Forward”? Small acts snowball into avalanchesāexcept mine come with extra sass and zero regrets. I’m living my life to make waves, not float.
Fellow freaks, unite!
Letās own our weirdness like itās the latest trend.
Whoās ready to freak out the normies? šš

Gwen ,
Please forgive me but ” NORMAL ” suits me fine . That doesn’t mean I choose to totally soak into the woodwork I make my presence known in my own way . Over the last eight years I’ve learnt how far to push the envelope , how far would a ( lone ) woman go to , have fun , say what she thinks and show the depth of her ( hidden male ) knowledge . I float along most of the time , I guess like most 75 year old’s , life doesn’t get easier for a woman living alone . BUT I also know how to make waves , I call it the DEVIL in me , just when people aren’t expecting it I will say or do something to rock the boat , I love testing people to see what makes them tick . Saying this I would never push to the limit of appearing a freak , my place at the table is set for Teresa , I love the feeling of being in a comfortable situation to be part of other people’s lives .
Gwen- Go for it. To me: normal = boring.
