Introduction

[LoveYouToTheEnd]

So, this is my first post here. Hello.

It feels odd posting here because by doing so I am sharing a secret about myself. I'm not typically a person to share stuff. Anyway, this is a step towards the future that I want to take right now.

I am MtF. I suppose I have known this for a while but couldn't quite bring myself to call myself by that. I have not known this from the very earliest age I can remember and I have no desire for surgeries. Hair removal, yes, if that can be considered as such. Those two facts have made me feel that MtF is not me because of most of what I have read on this topic. Doing more research and realizing I cannot suppress my feelings for long and with success have led me here.

I will be quiet and lurky more than open and posty, but here is my Introduction. Thank you to the people here who are open with information so I may learn. These upcoming days will have me reading a lot here and working on a voice.

Hi and welcome!  I'm a newbie too, but let me be one of the first to say greetings
and we are glad to have you here.

I identify a lot with what you are saying I think.  I have a lot of 'feminine' desires
and inclinations, but although I really love everything about women's styles, I
don't think I would be comfortable presenting as a woman all the time because
that's not really who I am 100% either.  I feel like somewhere in between - I
would love to have long beautiful hair, no body hair, great skin, and be sort of
androgynously good-looking, but I don't have any serious desire to have breasts,
for instance.  But enough about me.   

I think there are a wide range of viewpoints represented here, so whereever you
find yourself on the gender spectrum (or rainbow, maybe?   )  this is a good
place to let your feelings and thoughts out and find support.  Hope you are able
to find some of that here.

Hugs, Julia Erin

Many years ago I came to the realization that I am a Tomboy. This was before I thought I could be MtF, which led to confusion but the title fit so it stuck in my mind. I have a female core but I am not very girly. This is part of my problem. My femaleness wants to be expressed but the standard outlets don't really appeal to me so I am at a loss of what to do. I really enjoy having long hair, painting my nails, and fighting the good fight against bodyhair. Outside of that I don't know what to do. I desire a change to myself but I don't know what the change I want is.

I do admit I'd like to wear skirts with goofy knee high socks but I could never wear something without pockets. I've always seen legwear without pockets to be useless.

Hi LYTTE,

Welcome to our little family. Over 9862  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 sister.

Firstly, a warm Aussie welcome to you!

Secondly, I'm a fairly non-girly woman.. You are more likely to find me wearing a thsirt, jeans and a pair of Cons. Don't think that because you don't fit the standard trans narrative, that you are not as much a woman as any other.. I had little, if any, dysphoria. I don't hate my genitals.. I just knew that being a man was wrong - I am a woman. So I've done those things I felt were needed and transitioned - and I could never, ever go back..

I now happily live my life as the somewhat butch dyke I've always been..

Hi LYTTE,

Another big Aussie welcome to Susan's family. It's good of you to drop in and say "Hi". Hope you like it here, and you stay for a while.

There is a mountain of information, resources and friendship waiting for you here, you just need to jump in start talking and ask any question you like. You're quite safe here and we are very accepting.

Feel free to be who you are. That's what we are all about. Feel free to lurk, post, chat, dance, make the coffee, put the rubbish out on Tuesday night; but we do ask you one thing. Don't sing. Please.

Looking forward to hearing more of your story in time to come, but in the meantime, be safe, well and happy.

Lotsa huggs
Catherine
