Hi From Shropshire!

[ninjaboi]

I just found this site whilst googling for packer info! Looks like a good place, so here i am.  Im a 44yr old gender queer. I am female who considered self butch, until i realised i didnt fit with the butch label and so i came to the conclusion i must be genderqueer. I would love to have chest surgery and hysto but thats as far as i would go, if i could. I wear a packer, use a strap on. In my head i have always been male, certainly not female.
I am *married* civil partnership. We have two adorable cats!
I love football (Aston Villa), collecting action figures, watching crime shows, especially Criminal Minds.

We're a wacky and diverse and friendly bunch here (the head count is over 7600) - get into things as slowly or as quickly as you feel comfortable, I'm sure you'll find plenty of support here. There are quite a few Brits on the site (I'm just down the hill in Devon ).

Shropshire lad huh? Before I moved to Indiana I lived in the wellingon/Telford area.  I was there for about 7 years. So, welcome to Susans

As and when, mate, as and when...

Telford isnt far from us at all, we live near Shrewsbury. My nan lived in telford in the early 80s. (sadly she passed away in 1982)
I am actually from Birmingham though. Havent lived there since i was 14 though.

I used to go to Shrewsbury every month to pick up my monthly issue of Ranma 1/2. It's a manga about a boy who turns into a girl when splashed with cold water. Hot water reverses the effect. And in Birmingham, I would do some of my clothes shopping.  *sigh* happy times. ^_^

...It's a manga about a boy who turns into a girl when splashed with cold water...

Ah, the quiet joys of shrinkage...

[Keaira]

Lol shrinkage?

[Padma]

Lol shrinkage?

what cold water traditionally does to boys .

[ninjaboi]

Yes Im glad i dont have a real one at times like that 

[Keaira]

Yea.well now HRT is taking care of things for now. I wish transitioning was as easy as getting splashed with cold water. lol

[Padma]

Make it so, Number One . I can't wait for my matter to be converted into antimatter...

Wouldn't that be nice. I'm not actually transitioning FTM but if it were easier, i probably would!

Yay, more Brits! We're slowly taking over Susan's

Hi Nemo, wheres the best place for general FTM topics? Im still getting used to the place!!

[Nemo]

Funny you should ask, I've just come from there

https://www.susans.org/forums/index.php/board,27.0.html <-- that's the general FTM board (also has a sub-forum all about things such as binders, packers etc.), but you can also check out the board above it, or the transgender board for more general stuff.

Enjoy your stay - I know I have

Oh yes, nearly forgot: if you also ID as genderqueer (like me!), there's also this place: https://www.susans.org/forums/index.php/board,57.0.html - known as the Unicorn Forest for some reason, but its technical term is the androgyne forum.

[ninjaboi]

Thanks Nemo!
