I had a fake name on my account, but all of my real life friends knew what my name on Facebook was. I liked this system as it allowed me to connect with my friends without worrying too much about my name and data being out there. Eventually

Yes, I imagine the experience these boys had would be very similar to that of a trans man. It seems with trans people, they are assigned the correct sex (technically) but wrong gender at birth. We don't have a way to know the correct g

Yes, I hate the fact that when I turn on my TV, it takes a full 5-6 seconds for it to respond to the remote. This can be very bad if the volume was up high, and you turn on the TV late at night and are greeted with blaring sound an no-way t
