I came out as a transpecies last year. I had to sit down my wife and parents and had to admit that I always felt I was born a turtle in a mans body. I came out of my shell to them, and now after the operation I feel 100% complete. It is a little awkward going to work and out in public, I get a lot of stares and bias. It's not easy being a transspecies.

Also our son has expressed that he is a turtle so we are starting him early. Transspecies rights now!
