Ruin begins this interview saying: "My name is Ruin and I usually introduce myself as an MTF transgender lesbian. I’m also a vegetarian and a cat lover. I started thinking about gender issues in 2004, and two years later I became an activist. I wasn’t quite aware of sexual identity issues before encountering feminism; through feminism I realized that the general notion of femininity or masculinity was completely different from my personal experience."
