I have something to confess

I haven't been completely honest with you. I have let societal norms, or perhaps old societal norms, change who i am on here.

Not so long ago, i told you that my parents let me play with dolls when i was a kid, and that my favorite toy was a doll normally reserved for girls. I have been lying. I actually mostly played with boy's toys. But that too was against societal norms. I am actually female, but in my desperate pursuit of approval, i have pretended to be a guy.

You see, in egypt, girls are supposed to be girls. You know, playing with dolls, riding horses and all that crap. Getting approval was very hard, especially from my aunts and grandmother, who lived in the same apartment building. They showered me with dolls and all that princess buttercup crap, but all i wanted to do was play with my action figures. Things are different here in sweden, but i still feel like i have to make a completely new exterior for everyone to look at when i'm with my so called friends, and the rest of society. But i'm not interested in horses or clothes or any of that cliched crap, i love working with computer hardware, science fiction and i especially love gaming.

This is like my home on the internet. And at home, you can be yourself. I will stop showing you my artificial exterior, and start acting as myself. I'll stop acting like an incredibly hormone pumped teen, posting pictures of half naked women and the like.

By the way, how obvious was it that i was faking it? I mean... I doubt there is anyone that easily hypnotized by boobs... Or as hormone pumped as i pretended to be. Must have felt kind off...

Actually, when you think about it, i haven't lied to you that much... I do want to become a game reviewer, and most of the stuff i've said about my personal life is true (other than what i just replaced).

I do hope you forgive me for all the lying though... I don't know why i did it. I guess i'm just so used to being seen as an alien when i show people my true self...

Wait, wait wait????

You're saying you're a girl? xD

OMG...

I'm sorry if I start treating you other way, but... If I choose to believe this... You must understand that, for me... will be like talking to other person... not the Thingy we're used to...

And yes, that means you have done a pretty good job hiding it...

Yeah, it's a bit different thingy, but it's the same thingy that loves video games and science fiction.
Really? I thought it was kind of hollow... I mean, i did the best i could, but i was worried you might suspect something or find it odd. I guess i have experience with this kind of stuff, i've always had to pretend i'm your average cliched girl.

Ok... As I said in the chatbox, the cliche is bad! Better is going on your own ways...

But, again... There will be some people you will need to convince, so... good luck with that! xD

Hmm, now that you mention it, that does seem appropriate and it doesn't surprise me i guess. I mean we have Terra here who is more interested in "guy like things" than most girls, so the fact that we attracted another makes sense too.

Now it makes... But I never thought Thingy would be the she...

In fact his... I mean, her faked obsession with boobs and such reminded me when I was 13 yo xD...

But now seeing... nice to know you, Thingy (xD)...

So your a girl, so whatm i will treat you the same, your not the first person, trust me, in america alot of people do that, it doesent matter what is on the outside (well on the profile anyway) it matters what you think about yourself....just be yourself on the internet, none of us (most of us) wont judge you.

True... I wont miss judge a person just because you're a boy or girl... Neither anyone should...

nah, it's Thingy, I say we slap him around a little

Yah... You're right

*Picks an hammer and slams it into Thingy's head*

"This is for lying to us!*

*Another hit...*

"This is for not telling us you're a girl*

*Another hit*

"This is for... because I wanted!"

that's not the type of slap around I meant....

"Oh really?"

*Hides hammer*

"What did you meant that way?" XD

But now speaking... It's nice to know the truth...

Yeah... Slapping tends to be more hand oriented, hammering someone with a hammer tends to be more hammer oriented.

And yes, it feels good to have that burden off my shoulders... Having to lie to you on a daily basis was painful.... But hopefully, it won't change much. I'm still thingy. So... Yeah, you're not getting a break from my torrents of crappy jokes.

no, if you were still thingy, my slapping joke would have set you off, well, I guess if that was all pretend before then I guess it wouldn't now

Indeed... It would have made you mad...

I think it was part of the faking, the pissing off thing...

Well, i am a little different from the old thingy. Mostly less horny teen..ish...

no, it was a gutter minded joke. Obviously you haven't heard the term to slap around J, it's along the same lines as banging

Huh... I haven't heard that one either... Must be something canadian.

You know, i think i might need a break from the forum for a while... Just to think things over.

Oh... Right...

I felt I should call you some name, but I'm not sure if I understood you well...

Ah well... nvm...

--------
Yeah, sure...

think about things... It's the best thing you can do...

Thingy wrote:Huh... I haven't heard that one either... Must be something canadian.

must be, I hear it all the time. Very gutter minded term

There's also a thing It comes to mind here...

Thingy... I'm looking at the watch, and making a few calculations:

This is not an April's Fools joke, right?

Oh... It's the first of april... Couldn't have picked a worse time, could I?

Indeed... You couldn't...

But gladly for you I don't really "celebrate" the 1st of April, so... Just garantee-me:

You're, under oath, sure you are telling the truth to us all?

Lol. But seriously, its good to assert yourself. (I only kinda know what assert means soooo...) Be yourself and in all reality, i think of this forum as kind of a home. I can be my self without worrying about my nonexistent social life outside this room. I can do what i want here w/o worrying about other people opinions. This is the only place i have ever found where i could be my normal.

Well this was unexpected. Though to be honest I always had more important things on my mind then the genders of people here. Doesnt make much of a difference, except maybe for the fact that the version of you that had an extra few parts was fake.
Anyone else got anything to confess?

Well, i have an april fools joke coming up in the reviewing section... Should be done soon.

I'm an eco freak who wants to be a scientist and visit antarctica once a year for a 45 day expedition. But that seems irrelevant and like spam.

It'll be a surprise now I know about it. But then again, I've been surprised by thing I knew were going to happen anyway. Guess I'm just jumpy.
And Leach, thats a good ambition. just dont look at how many vehicles I drive. The numbers might kill you.

Let me count:

Personal Car
Personal Boat
Military Jeep
Military Truck
Military Battle Tank
Military Chopper
Military APC
Military Fighter Jet

Am I forgetting anything?

Oh god. You dont own a hummer or jeep do you. That might deserve a beating.

Fighter jet AND helicopter? That might be a little too much... I think you need special training for both...

He has it! I remember he saying he was from the SAS, right?

Hm..since when did I have a boat?
Jet...once..G forces were bad.
Chopper...only in sims. Never in the field. They are real hard to fly.
Your missing a bike. Normal and motor. Do skiis count as a vehicle?
Probably other but I forgot
This is a little OT anywa, back to Thingys gender.
And no, I dont have a hummer. Or jeep. Why would I need one in a town?
If you must know, I have a Toyota Corolla.

WTFFFFFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



Proof! I need it!!!!

Note: Meh, I always thought you were a little gay or something. Couldn't put my finger on it. This actually makes sense. Still, we needs da proof!

Let me guess... You want a picture? I was thinking of posting one anyway... Will just need some time to get a camera working...

If you can, I would like to see you holding a wrench, and stroking a computer monitor....

(LOL, JK. I had to, sorry.)

Or... and alternative pose could be something similar to the picture I posted.

If you can't find a tarantula, any reptile will be fine, as long as it's green.

Nah... I noticed the taratula was just a stuffed animal... one of those you sleep with when you're 5 yo...

That's not bad... trust me.. when first being on the internet, I pretended to be a girl.. For the fact I am more in touch with my own feminine side than most guys, and I was originally confused as one on a lot of web based games. I try to come off as more sophisticated than I really am so that it's not as easy to get gender confused. During my little pretend stage, I almost developed split personality disorder.. kind of sucked...

Well, at least you didn't turn out like this guy in the end:



@ JP

Well yeah. BTW, you know that we have those things here in Oklahoma right?

They're so much fun to run over! :pop: Yes.... God's beautiful creation....

(Ok, I don't run over them on purpose)

OH MY EYES!!!! THEY'RE BLEEDING, OH, OH, OH, THE PAIN!!!!

DEAR GOD DJ!!! THAT...THAT IS A DISGRACE TO ALL THAT IS MORAL!! MY EYES!!! SOMEONE RIP OUT MY EYES!!! x.x

Well, I always knew thingy was a bit on the odd side, xD
Welcome to The forum... again.. xD new thingy...

Poor guy! He should submit himself to a plastic surgery!

I bet it is... I like to run over those very big mosquitoes... So fun see their legs destroyed! xD
