What do you think about the person described (long)?

First off, I am aware that you may have thought I was a girl when you first saw me and that many people can't tell my gender. Yes, I don't dress like a typical male. Deal with it. It doesn't hurt anyone, so why do you care? Second, I am not trying to be anything. I am not trying to be feminine. I am not trying to be scene, emo or any other pointless, fashion based subculture. I am not trying to be unique. I am just living my life how I want to and if I happen to be feminine, have characteristics of a subculture or be unique then so be it. I am extraordinarily eccentric though so don't be surprised when you figure out I'm a freak (and yes, I am proud to be a freak. It's who I am, why not embrace it?) I have Asperger's which was professionally diagnosed and has been confirmed by multiple evaluations. This is part of who I am and I do not want to be cured. I am currently really into socioeconomic systems but I'm not an expert yet. I will NOT talk about sports or celebrities. Those are both extremely boring to me. Other than that, most conversations are allowed. I love to learn new things and I am very open-minded. I am a feminist because I believe in equality for all genders and want to smash down gender roles and the gender binary because I believe they are oppressive. I am againt capitalism but I'm still researching the possible replacements. I aspire to be a poet and activist, while working at a non-profit for a day job. I'm a mixture of Chicano and Ashkanazi Jewish, with a lot of other stuff in there too. I am mostly vegan, but I eat honey and sugar, though I'm trying to cut down on the latter. I have three beautiful cats named Sally, Tuxie and Fuzzy and one puppy named Greta. I love them very much. I don't party, drink, smoke or get high. That doesn't mean I don't have fun. I love to hang out with my friends, write poetry, read books, go online, garden, play with my cats and more. I get out of the house and socialize, contrary to the stereotype of the secluded, asocial hermit that many people think of when they think of Asperger's Syndrome. I just would rather go to a poetry reading than a party. I tend to offend, confuse, disturb and shock people quite a lot without intending, so sorry if I do that to you. I don't mean any harm. I am super interested in what people's first impressions of me are for some reason, even though it doesn't make me change my behavior or change how I feel about myself. I'm just curious about it. My uality is complex. I am exclusively ually attracted to androgynes and male-identified people, but I can fall in love with any gender. I can't imagine myself having with a female identified person, but I certainly can fall in love with one.
