Thank you to everyone for my Birthday messages I had a great day and even better when I got all the best wishes from you all thank you.
Thank you for all the lovely Valentines day messages guys and girls so sweet of you means a lot.
First off let me start by saying hello i am happy to be here on this chat site and hope to make lots of new friends and maybe more.
I am a Trans activist.
My name is Seren.
Well a little about myself i am 5ft 8 tall plus what ever size heel i am wearing i have long blonde hair and before any of you say it i am no dumb blonde as it comes from a bottle i have blue eyes and have a slim build i would love to say i am golden brown all over as i travel all over the world but i can't that also comes out of a bottle as who wants to end up looking like a dried up old prune from sun damage.
I am Russian Irish decent so bit of a mad mix going on there but hey do not blame me blame my parents.
My tastes are very wide i can adapt to most things and i believe if i have not tried it so why not give it a go as long as it doesn't hurt anyone and if i did like it do it again i believe life is for living i don't judge anyone on what their choices or lifestyles are as that's their life and up to them how they live it and being judgmental has caused enough problems in this world and i wouldn't like anyone to tell me how to live my life.
I am a vegetarian and a member of PETA as i believe that animals have a right to live here just as much as us humans do and i can not stand any form of cruelty to any living thing and just because we can do it doesn't mean we should do it and fruit and vegetables are so much taster than meat i am not preaching to anyone these are just my beliefs.
I also make it a rule of mine to get to know someone online in the chat rooms and online before i meet anyone as i have heard so many bad stories about people meeting people and bad things happened to them so if your not willing to take the time to get to know me then your wasting your time and mine as i am not into one night stands never have been and never will be.
I am willing to meet new people but like i have said if your not willing to take the time to get to know me then it isn't worth the effort as i believe that something can not be rushed and in no way shape or form will i be rushed or pressured into doing anything i don't want to do.
Anyway enough banging on a little about what i like to do i enjoy.
Going out with friends.
Cooking and i must be good as my friends keep coming back and no one has been poisoned he he he.
Music at the moment Adele 21 is my fav CD.
Films.
Nights in with good company and nibbles.
Reading and not just the gossip magazines he he he.
Going on my PS4.
Now for things i dislike.
People with bad attitudes.
Liars.
Time wasters.
Rude people.
People who get a kick out of hurting other people.
People who don't look after themselves i.e. don't wash.
Well i hope you have enjoyed reading this don't be scared to get in touch i am not as bad as it sounds on here i will always talk to everyone who gets in touch even if it takes me a couple of days to get back to you i will always get back to you.

Fav Quotes.
If you're gonna be two-faced at least make one of them pretty.
I've never fooled anyone. I've let people fool themselves. They didn't bother to find out who and what I was. Instead they would invent a character for me. I wouldn't argue with them. They were obviously loving somebody I wasn't.
I don't mind being burdened with being glamorous and sexual. Beauty and femininity are ageless and can't be contrived, and glamour, although the manufacturers won't like this, cannot be manufactured. Not real glamour; it's based on femininity.
Husbands are chiefly good as lovers when they are betraying their wives.
I'm selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best.

The Act preempts the trial of Kuhnhausen's alleged killer and thus prevents the use of that defense.
