VR: Who is Buck Angel?
BA: I am a Female to Male transsexual Pornstar with the only adult website on the net today!

VR: Where are you living these days?
BA: I live in the amazing French Quarter

VR: I know this is a hard question, but can you tell us what your life has been about?
BA: HAA! Well if I did that it would take up about 20 pages..but in short it's been about bring awareness to the world and the adult world in general about guys like me being hot and sexy and not freaks of nature!

VR: When you were growing up and each morning you would look in the mirror did you feel that was the wrong person looking back at you?
BA: Oh totally, I can always remember feeling sick to my stomach everytime I had to put a dress on or do something that made me feel like I was in the wrong body.

VR: Who was your inspiration growing up?
BA: Well I was a professional runner in my early teens and there was this amazing woman runner who was so focused and butch, She didn't care what anyone thought of her and I always remember her for being so strong and not really caring what anyone thought about her.

VR: How long have you been living as a male?
BA: I strated my transition 11 years ago and never looked back.

VR: How far have you got into your transition?
BA: I have had a full sexchange. I have had my top syurgery and all my legal paper work changed so I am now legally male.

VR: Have you had any surgery to help your with your perfession?
BA: I have kept my vagina and this is basically what I use in my profession as the only FTM pornstar. I am "Buck Angel the man with a pussy"

VR: Why did you get in the porn business?
BA: Because I saw that there were tons of MTF porn sites but no one doing any FTM porn so I decided to step up to the challenge. I love what I am doing..I am educating people as well and also I ONLY have safe sex in my work.

VR: How long have you been doing these kind of movies?
BA: I started in February of 2003 and I just signed a 12 picture deal with Robert Hill Releasing. I have basically just made porn history as the first FTM to sign with a major studio.

VR: What do you think, do you think you make a hot looking guy, someone us girls can not live without?
BA: Haaa! Well I do get lots of email from MTF girls telling me that!

VR: Who do you admire these days?
BA: My best friend and biggest supporter Elayne Angel(www.ringsofdesire.com) she is the most amazing woman. Self made and at the top of her field. Without her support for what I am doing this would not be happening. She is awsome.

VR: What has been your biggest accomplishment?
BA: Signing the 12 picture deal..I worked so hard to get noticed with tons of doors slammed in my face so I feel really happy about this.

VR: Do you have any pet peeves?
BA: Yes people who just feel like victims and never try to make life better.I am an example of if you want something you can have it just go get it whatever it takes!

VR: Do you think you are a nice person or do you think you can be a bitch at times?
BA: I think I am a very nice person..People are usually scared of me at first because of my looks but once they get to know me they always say"Damn Buck you are a really cool person!"

VR: What do you think makes you stand out above others?
BA: The fact that I am not afraid of being proud of who I am.

VR: Do you get nervous when you are asked to speak to a group or perform on stage?
BA: I used to but I think the more I do it the less nervous I get.

VR: Would you ever get SRS(reassignment surgery) or when did you have your surgery?
BA: Oh I answered that already ..

VR: Are you in love now?
BA: YES!

VR: Where do you see yourself in the future?
BA: I am in the process of building an empire..so keep your eyes open for me!

VR: As a transgendered person do you think you have receive proper respect you deserve in life?
BA: Yes I think so because I am proud of who I am so people see that and they feed off of that..they can't really fuck with you if you are ok with yourself. I have to say with doing my porn I haven't been getting much support from the FTM community on a whole. They don't really like what I am doing they say I am degrading them , But I have to say in my own defense that it's not really about them it's about me Buck Angel being ok with himself and his sexuality.

VR: What do you think you have to offer the transgender community, anything at all?
BA: Yes self respect around our sexuality and that we are hot sexy people and sex is a good thing not a shameful thing that we need to hide in the closet with. If someone is attracted to us that should be a goodthing not something they feel ashamed of.

VR: What words of wisdom would you give to someone who is reaching out for help?
BA: Be strong! There are tons of support groups now for us. When I started my change there was really nothing out there. So don't feel alone because there are tons of us out there to help you along the way!

VR: Do you have a final statement, for our readers?
BA: Thanks so much for this oppertunity to tell you a bit about myself and hope you check me out. It may not be for everyone but it is for some so please don't put any judgements on me and my work. My work is very important to me. You can see more of me here

Note from Vicki Rene: I don't know Buck at all, from the emails that he and I have sent to each other my impressions of this young man is that is a very driven but sincere person and someone I would like to break bread with some day.
