Tried to donate blood today but my pulse is too fast. Could be because of stress.

On the bright side, my iron levels are healthy.

Am meeting lots of nice boys lately. Eee, boys make me feel squishy inside. :)

Finished my essay for tomorrow, called Transgender Tribes and Tribulations. Is it cheating that I write about trans issues? :P I actually did have to do a bit of research, and I dug up an interesting statistic.

From http://www.hbigda.org/Documents2/socv6.pdf:

The earliest estimates of prevalence for transsexualism in adults were 1 in 37,000 males and 1 in 107,000 females. The most recent prevalence information from the Netherlands for the transsexual end of the gender identity disorder spectrum is 1 in 11,900 males and 1 in 30,400 females.

I had frequently heard the first estimate, but not the second one.
