I’m Aleric, 21, pre-everything due to money issues, just a lucky little duck who got blessed with a semi-masculine face and voice, and my favorite thing about being a transman is finally being able to be who I am on the outside as well as on the inside.
Hello, my name is Riley and I’m a 16 year old androgynous, male-bodied genderqueer. I consider myself mentally a girl and a man. At this point, I do not plan on going on hormone-therapy, or modifying my body to be more feminine. My sexual orientation is polysexual, and I prefer males and other non-binary genders/crossdressers. My favorite thing about being gender non-conforming is that I can express my gender through my androgyny, and not care what people think of it. I’m a free-thinker, and do whatever I please, not always to please others. I’m far too creative to dress like one gender 24/7.

My name is Mitch and My favorite thing about being FTM is that when i am a man I will will have more confidence and I will feel more comfortable and happier in myself
Now that I’ve transitioned, I have a much more authentic relationship with the people in my life. This includes my family members. Since I’m leading my life with integrity, these relationships are strong and feel incredibly more genuine.

Hello there, my name is Dylan and I am a femme, queer, aspiring drag queen. I am also a pre-everything FTM transsexual.
My favorite thing about how I identify is that – after a over a year of being out – I can march into a mens bathroom in a tutu and not worry about getting the living shit beaten out of me. It’s never happened and I don’t think it ever will. Because I have confidence. Sometimes I’ll walk out of one bathroom and into the other, simply because, with confidence, I can. A lot of trans men are afraid to go there dressed like men. I go there dressed like an alien. All I have to say to those who are scared is: ROCK IT. ROCK IT HARD.
I hope you accept this post and enjoy it accordingly. Thank you.
Hey there! I’m Nick (Rachel), a 17 year old FTM. My favorite part about being trans is definitely that I got to pick my own name. I never liked the name Rachel, not for myself and not for anyone else. So, having the opportunity to change it is pretty cool…
My name is Michelle. I am a genderqueer/tomboyish transwoman. My favorite thing about discovering the trans within would have to be that feel good that comes with being 100% comfortable in my own skin. I can’t believe I’ve made it this far considering how relentless that gender dysphoria can be. This transition is showing me just how strong and confident I really am. Life is pretty damn good now that I’ve learned how to catch the wave and let it carry me away.
Hey everyone. My name is Jack and I am a senior at Montserrat College of Art. I’d like to invite everyone in the Boston area to come to my gallery group show, Some Things Take Time.
I am a photographer, videographer and sound artist whose work is consistently presented in a provocative manner and engages the viewer to participate. My thesis work is a multimedia instillation that explores gender issues through a series of personal artworks, conveying the life of someone who is transgender.
Some Things Take Time is the senior thesis exhibition of seven Montserrat College of Art graduating students. It features the work of artists Jon Bolles, Brittany Carr, Hannah Imbesi, Jack Moffitt, Elizabeth O’Toole, Tamara Trudeau and Amanda Woronecki.
