Uh, just wondering... If this person is FtM then why are you using female pronouns in the news? That seems like bad form to me.

Ratte has stated that she does not really mind being called "she" or "he" currently. I've always known of her as a female, so that's what's kind of stuck with me.

Plus, I did run the wording of this news post by her before I posted it. She never said anything about me labeling her as a "she" in it. So I understand your concern, but can assure you that Ratte does not mind.
