Hello, I’m Anya
Hello, I’m Anya
A2N0Y6A posted a photo:
I’m 44, i live in Seattle, Washington.
I’m Transgender, I prefer ‘Anya’ to pronouns. I do not see myself as either male or female. I’m not transitioning fully to ‘female’ in the ways many may think of us and to be honest neither ‘She’ nor ‘He’ fit me, my body now 3 years on Estrogen or my outlook. I’m a bit of both and i understand this can be complex for some who’ve never met someone like me. I’m otherwise like everyone else. 🙂
I’m disabled, i have Marfan Syndrome & am Bipolar.
I learned DSLR photography while homeless on the streets of Seattle beginning in 2015 after a year and a half of Point And Shoot photography while homeless. I found photography helped me a lot during that difficult time in my life and it continues to be in my view perhaps the best ‘therapy’ in many ways. Having a positive creative outlet helps a lot.
All of my photographs are shot with my Nikon D3300, with most taken with my beloved Tamron 18-200mm lens and a few older ones with the kit Nikkor 18-55mm lens.
I now live in my own apartment in Seattle with help from agencies who assist disabled homeless people. I’m stable but i struggle financially. I’m not a professional photographer available for hire, i sell prints and products featuring my photographs to help me.
I’m friendly, i like everyone unless they are disrespectful to me for being LGBT. It makes no difference to me what anyone else is or what they believe. As long as i’m treated with respect and not as someone to be converted to whatever religion someone is pushing on everyone or told i’m less of a person for being Transgender and/or for being someone who dates men i accept everyone.
Here in Seattle i have friends of every race, religion and view there is pretty much. Differences in belief / lifestyles don’t prevent us from being friends here in person and i hold the same view online when connecting with others. I try my best to give everyone a chance equally just like i do here in my city.
Earlier in my life i produced Electronic Music, it’s all free to Download on Bandcamp with additional links for lossless files on MEGA.
If you’d like to connect, feel free to follow (I follow people back) or say hello on a post instead if you’d like. I use translation software in order to speak to everyone easier worldwide as i enjoy meeting people all over as i enjoy the adventure of seeing your photographs on Flickr!
(*I don’t use Facebook or Twitter and my Instagram, Pinterest and YouTube accounts are archives. This is where to find me daily.)
Thanks for stopping by & checking out my photography 🙂
Much ? From Seattle,

Gay guys share the most embarrassing ways they’ve acted with a crush
Gay guys share the most embarrassing ways they’ve acted with a crush
It’s hard to keep your cool and say all the right things when you’re around someone who makes your heart flutter — think Simon saying, “I like your boots!” — but some guys’ interactions with their past crushes continue to haunt them years later.
Here are some (minimally edited) horror stories from Reddit users who bravely shared the embarrassing things they’ve said and ways they’ve acted around a crush. Read ‘em and cringe…

“I kissed a guy on the forehead. Had no idea what I was doing…”
“I went to a few of his lacrosse games he invited me too, and I dropped him off one night afterwards, and we made out. F*cking great kissing. I was so g*ddamn awkward, I literally didn’t know what to say afterwards, and I PATTED HIM ON HIS HEAD. He said, ‘Did you just pat me on the head?’ Lol, I was full-blown embarrassed.”
“HEY DO YOU LIKE PIZZA!!!!”
“I tossed a squeeze bottle full of chocolate to him and he caught it, but it was COMPLETELY full, and there was a hole in the top, so when he caught it, he inadvertently squeezed it and… he was covered in chocolate. Did I mention we were at work? Yeah, this was at work. Oops! Just so we’re clear, this isn’t a euphemism.”
“Got him some pepperonis as a date gift, because I was nervous.”
“I was in college and had a crush on a guy. It was in theater class, and he asked what I like to do. (I didn’t realize at the time he was flirting with me) and I told him read Edgar Allen Poe. I turned and left, ‘cause what do you say after that? Next time I saw him in class, the handed me a book, the complete works of Edgar Allen Poe.”

“One time in middle school, I was trying to impress a girl (weird times), and I told her about how you should not try to approach flies from behind if you’re trying to kill them.”
“I looked at your peen when we pee.”
“When we stepped outside at night, he wasn’t wearing a jacket and got real close to me saying how cold he was. My response? ‘Want me to light a match and throw it on you?’ It only took me about two seconds to realize how ridiculous that came out.”

Uber Driver Kicks Couple Out of Car Because They’re Gay: WATCH
An Uber driver in Camden County, New Jersey kicked a gay couple out of her after one woman kissed the other on the cheek in the back seat. The incident was captured on a cell phone.
NJ.com reports: “Kristin Michele and Jenn Mangan were in an Uber on their way to a Zac Brown Band concert in Camden on Friday night when Michele leaned over and gave Mangan a kiss on the cheek, they said. The driver then immediately told the women to get out of the car, Michele said.”
Said Michele: “I said ‘I don’t understand.’ She said ‘I can’t ride with that. You kissed her.’ She said ‘I won’t have that.’”
The driver threatened to call the police but never did. Michele and Mangan walked about half a mile to their home and took a train to the concert.
Uber has not commented on the incident.
