So I知 a 19 year old MAAB trans* person who is currently enrolled in university: I知 majoring in Political Science with a focus on American politics; and I知 minoring in Women痴 & Gender studies (because it痴 only offered as a minor) and War, Peace, and Terrorism. My aspirations are to hopefully become an elected official, career activist, or maybe even a porn star. As for my hobbies I知 active on reddit and tumblr, I am one hell of a video game player, and I知 engaged in several feminist and LGBTA clubs on my campus. And I love piercings and tattoos- I have 10 and 2 respectively.
I think that痴 enough about me for now (enough to make Amy happy. :P); but if any of you are curious to know more, feel free to take a gander at my blog.
So in conclusion I hope with the combination of Amy and I, we値l be able to bring you a better experience from the blog you know and love, Dear Cis People.
Thank you, and g地ite (or g知orning if it痴 around that time for you |

I used to like sneezing when I was a kid. How stupid is that? For some reason there was an element of pleasure for me in the tell-tale nose tingle, the slightly watery eyes and then massive explosion, that made me look forward to it all.
It's all different now of course. I relish my daily quota of sneezes like it's a session of electric shock therapy. It's damned annoying, the nasal irritation, the runny nose, the streaming eyes, the sniffiness, the looking like you're having an epiphany moment when instead you're staring up up at the light bulb for the last 20 minutes to coax the bugger out.
I think it was developing hay fever and allergies in my early teens that did it for me; not only did I get an itch in my nose, I would actually get one inside my head, deep in my ear canal or down the back of my throat where I'd never be able to scratch it. How infuriating is an itch you can't scratch? I often woke up in the middle of the night with this maddening, torturous tickle somewhere deep in my brain and I sooooo wanted to saw off part of my head to allow me get inside with a toothbrush like in the Reach ads and scrub it all away. And all the while I'm sneezing sneezing sneezing and swallowing repeatedly as it was the closest I could get to scratching the itch in my throat that no man could ever scratch. It nearly drove me loopy.
Sneezing styles vary of course. I favour pitching mine somewhere beyond reserved but well short of a lion's roar. My grandfather was on the other hand not so much unique in style but was rather prolific. He would always sneeze uncontrollably after drinking whiskey so every Christmas in our house we'd all sit around watching him and waiting for the show to begin. His record was set in 1992 when he sneezed 27 times in succession, no word of a lie, I was there. Counting. He said "excuse me" after about the first five but then just abandoned all pretence of manners and was soon going "Achooooooo ya in' bastard ya" before pausing and delivering the next one "Achooooooahhhh it anyway" and then "Achoooooo Jasus Christ whaddein bastard" and so on. The one that cracked us up was "Achoooooothedoyouthinkyouare for s sake."
That was a great Christmas.
Timid people choke their sneezes, usually in public places, but not my Dad. My Dad bellows out his sneezes no matter where he is. If you're not used to it he'd frighten the out of you. I was on the phone to a girlfriend once in a room at one end of the house and my Dad sneezed downstairs and she could still hear it. "What was that?" she asked. "The dog barking," I said, mortified, hoping she knew of a dog that sounded like a volcano erupting when it barked. There were other times when I looked at Hurricanes on the news and wondered did one of my Dad's sneezes inadvertently contribute to climate change.
Then there was the lad at work who absolutely put everything he had into his sneezes. He'd shatter the silence of the workplace about five times a day with these abrasive interjections and everyone would look over at him and shake their heads and mutter. His sneezes made a very deliberate high-pitched whoop noise, it was extremely distracting. I asked him about it one day and he told me that he sneezed like that ever since the day he was in school and he tried in vain to hold back a sneeze and ended up blowing snot all over his hands. He lived in fear of a repeat from then on. Everyone in the office understood straight away and let him get on with it, we'd all been there.
Anyway, I hate sneezing now. They say it's one tenth of an orgasm or something but I neither feel or look at all sexy while sneezing and grandad didn't seem particularly turned on back in 1992 either, and he'd just had 2.7 orgasms. Which was some going for a man of 83 who, now that I think of it, hated whiskey. Hmmmm. |

What is a "singleton"?
"singleton" is the term used for someone who is one-mind, one-body, and pretty much one-personality in their body, ie. most of the world. . It is meant as a neutral identification term, which helps multiples dicusss their differences in comparison to people who are 'singletons' without implying that being a multiple is an abnormal trait.
What is a mask?
If one reads up on Jungian psychology, one finds that having masks is normal for singletons. One does not behave the same at work as one does at home, nor with one's spouse as with one's kids. Doing so could be dangerous. Compartmentalizing one's personality by one's roles and environment is a positive survival trait, and if a person acts inappropriately in an environment or within a role, they might get in trouble. Singletons are automatically considered to have masks for their roles, subtle shifts in personality.
What do you mean by "Aspected"?
People who are Aspected have more clearly defined masks. In the Otherkin community, it might show itself by a person taking on the role of one of their former Otherkin lives. For example, someone who is normally an elf Aspects as (calls up the personality of themself as) a dragon, perhaps from another lifetime, to see what the reactions to a situation would be like to that creature. |

How can I tell who is who?
The best thing to do is ask, and be observant, whether or not you share a body with the person/s in question. If the being is unable to tell you their idenity or name, you should simply observe their mannerisms, voice, choice of words, posture, and so on, and use those as identifying traits so you know when you see the person again. This works from inside the body as well, although thought patterns and emotional states might be observable as well. For outside observers, there will often be sufficient facial expression changes and overt personality traits such that even the face may seem subtly or substantially different from individual to individual. Each person within a Multiple can be vastly different. Some are very adept at telling you their name and all about themself, while others are shy or unable to communicate for various reasons. |

ARE VAMPIRES REAL?
Yes, we are. And no, we're not going away. :P :)
WHAT ARE THE TYPES OF VAMPIRES?
In the vampire community, the "types" can typically be broken down into one of three categories: Sanguinarians, psivampires, and hybrids. Sanguinarians are vampires who physically drink blood, and do not feed on energy. Psivampires ("energy vampires" is another name) are vampires who feed exclusively on energy and do not drink blood. Hybrid vampires feed on both blood and energy.
Psivampires and hybrid vampires, depending on the individual, may be broken down into further subtypes depending on their preferred / most effective feeding methods.
WHAT MAKES A PERSON A VAMPIRE?
Sanguinarians (blood drinking vampires)
Vampsires that feed only on blood, not energy. For this category, attempting to subsist using energy feeding methods may be damn near impossible, even when they do know how to do it. Some people swear up and down there's energy in the blood, others swear just as much that there isn'tl...it's been the cause of many a flame war over the years. Blood can be gotten from different sources: donors, eating rare steaks, etc. (If a sanguinarian has no donor, what often happens is that they're in a perpetually Thirsty state of mind when they are without adequate substitutes. This is one of the reasons I have the getting blood from a steak article on this site.
Psi-vampires (psychic vampires, energy feeding vampires)
There are many "subtypes" that fall in this category, with the type names (such as "elemental vampire", "tantric vampire", and so on) mainly used as a reference for the preferred/most effective feeding method. No matter how it's described, it's still *energy* in some form. For other people, the differences seem more important, swearing they can use one type of energy but not another.
However, some things get lumped in this category that really shouldn't - like some people's descriptions of themselves as an "empathic vampire" - At it's basic level, being an empath means you're able to feel people's emotions. In some cases, or with unguarded or particularly strong empaths, they actually EXPERIENCE the other person's emotions. (Now picture that in a crowd, and you understand why some people just CAN'T deal with large groups of people for very long...) Taking on someone else's emotions is not a vampiric trait, just an empathic one.
Vampires can also be empaths. Not all empaths are vampires.
Hybrid vampires (utilizing both blood and energy)
This seems to be a pretty typical combination for the majority of vampires online, at least according to Suscitatio's survey results. These are the vampires that can use - or need to use - both blood and energy feeding for best results. Just one or the other doesn't seem to work as well for long periods. The types of energy used will likely vary per individual, the same as there are variations for people who are just energy vampires. |

Needless to say, You're definitely not alone in asking whether you're a vampire. :) However, there's no easy way to tell. How do you get rid of those nagging doubts? You can't. At least, not easily. You must be happy with yourself, whatever you are, and must learn to accept yourself as you are, vampire or not, before you can shake loose any nagging doubts about your 'inner nature'. Always check out the mundane reasons for your "symptoms" first before jumping to the conclusion that you're a vampire. Chances are there's a reasonable explanation, and there's always a possibility that you could be suffering from a serious medical disorder in need of treatment.
Vampires are not immune to illness. It is possible to be a Vampire and have AIDS, cancer, diabetes, schizophrenia, a cold, the flu or any other disease or illness. Not only that, but many of the symptoms of vampirism are also symptoms of other known, treatable illnesses.
It is VERY important that you see your doctor when anything that concerns you is happening with your body or mind. |
