Name:  Ryan Leaptrott

Age:  23

Location: Southern USA

How do you identify?: (sexuality/gender) FtM preop transgender, pansexual

Interests/hobbies: Reading, travel, cooking, collecting stickers/hyenas/gargoyles/rabbits/pandas/stamps, anime, furries, conventions, sewing, drawing, history, nature, exploring other cultures, trying new foods, pokemon, video games, penpal-ing, jewelry making, computers/internet, music, animal conservation, comic books/manga,

Favourite books: Harry Potter,  The Lord of the Rings, the Dark Elf Trillogy, People of the ____ Series by the Gears, History books, cook books, Freak the Mighty, Where the Red Fern Grows, heck... I'll sit down and read most anything once...

Favourite films: Boys Don't Cry, Better than Chocolate, Inglorious Basterds, FightClub, Full Metal Jacket, Disney movies, Tim Burton movies... I love lots of things but honestly read more than I watch movies.

Favourite music: I have extremely varied music tastes and they really depend on my mood...

What would you like to send/receive?:  I would love a penpal who likes to exchange small gifts like stickers, post cards, a hand made bracelet... things like that.. It's not a requirement though, as long as my penpal has something interesting to say and will write at least once a month, though I understand that things come up some times and we don't get a letter out as fast as we had planned.

Who would you like to send and receive mail from?: Anyone! As long as they are open minded and can hold a good conversation on paper.

What countries would you like to receive mail from and send to?: Anywhere in the world! I LOVE international penpals, but ones in my own country are fun too because the letters come and go faster.

Anything that you would particularly NOT like to receive?: (eg. "food/candy with nuts") Uhmmm I don't know.. I'm not too picky, I'd just appreciate that my penpal thought of me enough to send me a gift!

What would be in your dream letter or package?: A nice long letter, maybe some stickers, stamps, or something like that.. I love surprises, so I can't rightly say.

Anything else you'd like to add?: Contact me soon! =D I'm itching to write!

I must say, I like the picture. It's... different, and therefore awesome. :D

I love travelling and other cultures (major linguaphile, it's my ambition to learn pretty much every language in the world, but I'm starting with Mandarin Chinese, German and French) too :D

Disney and Tim Burton movies = the best. No contest. And Inglorious Basterds I hear is excellent *feels pathetic for not having seen it yet*.

Oh, where are my manners?! I'm Beth, hi! :D

My intro is riiiiiight here (http://community.livejournal.com/queermail/10623.html) and feel free to PM me your email/address if you're interested! :)

Oh a response! Yay! I wasn't expecting once so quickly. You seem super interesting and we definitely have some music tastes in common too! I'll be sure to PM you, I can't wait to write!!

Hello! We used to be penpals on LBL. Then you disappeared and none of us knew for certain what happened to you. THANKS FOR LETTING US KNOW THAT YOU ARE ALIVE!

[goosestep-lion.livejournal.com]

Oh hello. I apologize for poofing. I've moved several times and been through some rough spots where I was not able to write. Afterward I did't come back to livejournal for a long while and lost touch with pretty much everyone.

I'll pop over to the com and make a formal apology.

Hey! So you identify as ftm preop, are you going to full transition then? Top and bottom surgery? I'm asking because I identify somewhere between genderqueer and ftm, leaning more toward the ftm but from what I know about everything I'd probably be no-op or top surgery at the most and using a prosthesis.

here (http://community.livejournal.com/queermail/157726.html) is my thing that I did like forever ago.

[goosestep-lion.livejournal.com]

I am still trying to decide... Right now with how the surgery results end up... bottom surgery is not looking to be a choice I will make any time soon.. maybe if they improve their outcome... I am definitely hoping that in the future I will be able to get my top surgery.

You sound very interesting and it would be super to have you as a penpal, note me and we can exchange addresses!

Love your selection of favorite books =)

I'd be more than happy to send a handmade bracelet as soon as I buy some thread/yarn again.

My post is here (http://community.livejournal.com/queermail/86689.html) if you're interested.

Let me know if you want to write!

I think what caught my attention to your post was the fact that it was so full of bright colour it literally blinded me to even read it. I had to put distance between me and my laptop, hahaha.

You seem interesting. I'd like to get to know you ;)
