The Hurt Locker

Introduction What is transgender? Transgender is a less clinical term, referring more to gender identity and gender expression than to sexual orientation or physical sex characteristics. It is also a more general and inclusive term: a transgender person may be gay, transsexual, transvestite, or even genderqueer. Transgender has been around for many years. It was kept in the closet. People did not want to show their sexuality because they were afraid, it wasn’t something that was accepted, and…

Chapter five ***Cassidy 's P.O.V*** ~♡~ I turned around after someone poked my shoulder, expecting to see Carson, but was surprised by Dave. "Hey, what are you doing here? This is kind of my locker." He laughed. "Yeah, I know. That 's why I came here." I frowned. "Look, if you 're here because you want to have sex with me, then you can leave." He rolled his eyes. "When did I ever say that?" I laughed at him. "Everyone knows that you 're a player. You 've slept with the whole cheer squad." "Come…

I’ve never been to a college football game before, nor do I know the slightest bit about it. But I figured it would be just like going to a high school home coming game but with more people. I had been waiting for this day for weeks. Waking up from my deep sleep to my nerve-racking alarm telling me its time to wake up, I stretched my 5’1 body out of bed, wrapping my toes in the curls of my crème colored carpet. I could smell the morning dew as I woke. I had my clothes ready for weeks, so I…

“Would you tell me if you were gay?” you pressed. “No, probably not,” I chuckled nervously. “Why not?” you replied, glancing over from the steering wheel. “I just don’t think you’re the type of person who’d be very receptive to that.” You looked a bit hurt, then said, “Well, I hope you’re not gay, or else we’ll have to get you a sex change.” And there, that afternoon in the car, you’d said it. Not a week later, you came into my room and sat down on the bed across from me. I stared at the…

That…

However, because psychology looks at something that cannot be measured and observed at all times, there are many theories that sprout from the topic. Freudianism, behavioral and biochemistry are just a few examples. Biochemistry focuses on the theory that biological and chemical factors directly affect one’s psychological state while Freudianism looks at the unconscious…

A Random Autobiography April 10th, 2000: the day I came into this world. 8 pounds, 3 ounces and already trouble. 17 months, 12 days later, along came a blonde haired, blue eyed baby. Maya, although I refused to believe we were calling her anything but Pinky. A baby that, to this day, I have trouble believing is my biological sister. Windy days in California. Only 2 years old, and I still remember it well. Bawling my eyes out when I saw the crabs along the beach, afraid that they were going to…
