Well... Im back! Kinda...
Posted 5 years agoSo, I used to frequent FA a lot a few years ago. .... Few probably being more then 5 at this point. Haaa.
I was part of a small group back then an always felt like a bit of an outlier. Or, long story short, I was a lot younger (Fresh out of highschool) and had a lot of unmedicated problems.
Today (yesterday, really) I return with a new character (fursona) in development. This character is meant to help represent the multiple feelings and faces of myself. To any readers wondering, I'm not diagnosed bipolar, and I dont have multiple personalities.
To better explain.. how, to better explain?
Well. I've struggled on and off with how I self identify for years. Now, as I dive into this, I ask you to please be patient with me. I'm unfamiliar with what terminology is and isn't considered proper in public fronts.
Most days, I shrug the worry off and say "Hey, I feel feminine, I have a female body. Ill go with it!"
Some days though, I do get a little dysphoric. Ill feel like I don't fit right in my own skin.
Its hard to go into the details because its a topic that's always mentally pushed down. My anxiety takes over and fills me with "Just be happy with what you have" or things like "Don't talk about it to others, they might think its a phase!"
But the thing is. I've been in this "Phase" of off and on not knowing how to identify myself, for YEARS. Even back in highschool, I can remember having days where I felt ashamed of my female body, or days where I wished I were different. I cant say entirely that I often feel alien in my own skin in means of feeling masculine so much as having days where I simply felt too feminine.
Anyways. Its hard to focus for me right now. The point is. Galatea has no set form. They fluctuate as I do. Frankly, I don't know if NSFW art will ever show up of them. But if it does, you might notice they are portrayed differently in different pieces. Most of the time they will likely appear more genderfluid. However there might be artwork depicting them male or female at some point. Softer or harder facial expressions (Hard to pull off with those bangs hiding most of their face but we'll see how things roll.) Larger or smaller .. other assets. Who knows! It will be between myself and the artist at the time to work together to portray myself as Galatea Mae Tarothian in what feels right and like home at that point in my life.
