My name is Jamie, which is kind of funny to be born with a unisex name and then wind up questioning one's gender.

I don't really know where to a start - I was born a woman, and up until recently felt OK about that. I really just woke up one day and felt horribly wrong, and I've never heard of that happening before, so I've been afraid to reach out to anyone about it because I don't think they will take me seriously, and a lot of days I'm not sure they should. It's all happening so fast - in a matter of months, I've gone from happily woman to feeling choked when someone calls me one - and it's all complicated by the fact that I'm a feminist activist and don't know what I'd do if I weren't welcome in woman-only spaces anymore.

Anyways. I'm super happy to have found this forum, given that the local all genders clinic has a wait list months long (but at least we have one! Go Vancouver.) I'm looking forward to meeting everyone and learning lots!

Hi Jamie, :icon_wave:

Welcome to our little family. Over 7999  strong. That would be one heck of a family reunion.

Feel free to post your successes/failures, Hopes/dreams.  Ask questions and seek answers. Give and receive advice.

But remember we are family here, your family now. And it is always nice to have another member.

It does not take courage or bravery to change your gender.  It takes fear of living one more day in the wrong one.~me
