I nearly died when I saw the bulletin on the GameSpot homepage...my god, I hope this really get's produced! Already threw in my donation of 110 bucks :D
I'm transgender as well, and when I was much younger and didn't completely understand what was going on with me, video games provided me an excellent escape. I always played/related to the female persons in every game, and soon began wishing I were one. It was an interesting take on things for me and definitely a growing experience that even my brother pointed out when I came out to him. "Bro, you always played the female character in games, so it doesn't surprise me." I agree with you 100% on the fact that there needs to be more transgendered protagonists/antagonists in video games. It would add a great perspective on things and provide a nice, interesting twist to the story. It would also provide another way to have a sort of virtual champion to our cause-someone us nerdy girls could look up to! Definitely looking forward to more articles from you as you carry a very unique and proactive voice for our community.
