Welcome to Kayla's World
Jan. 19th, 2025 06:22 pmThis journal will be mostly limited to friends only. If you know me by another name and want to be on my access list and agree to respect my identity, write to me to be added to my friends list.
I am Kayla Allen, and I am a trans woman. I well along the transition path, and with a few "boy-mode" exceptions am living full-time as a woman. While I have known since I was a child (single-digit years) that I've wanted to be a woman, and have from time to time shown myself that way, it was only in October 2024, when I was 59 years old, that my "egg" really started to crack and I started taking steps to present myself as female in public much more often.
This journal is likely to include pictures of me and discussion of what I'm doing, including my public appearances. My look is apt to change from time to time as I figure out what works for me and what doesn't.
While at the time I created this account, I had an active Facebook account, posts to DW are usually longer-form and you might think of them as more "behind the scenes" material at times. I created this account because of my concerns that other forms of social media will become too toxic or even unsafe. While I initially discussed myself on what I now call "The Former Tenant's" account, it became clear to me that it would be better to have a separate account for my femme self.
I'm very active in SF/Fantasy fandom, including organizing fan-run conventions like Worldcon.
