This is me. I'm not covering my face to hide it, I just thought it was a cool pose. I wanted to do both hands, but one of them had to hold my iPhone! lol
I'm still to early to post anything meaningful. I'm just a colorful looking middle aged guy at this point. lol My 22 year old son calls me "goth" or "emo" (ewww to the second one). He thinks I'm weird, but he loves me anyway. My eight year old daughter likes the way I look. (I'm divorced now but my son lives with me.) I'm just starting my transition, after waiting way too long. I'm so mad at myself for allowing that to happen.

But I'm glad I'm actually doing something about it now. So far only my older brother and a close female friend know (and also few trans women I know on Facebook).
Like other stories here, I knew since I was about 5, and only wanted to play with the girls on my block. I asked my mom to paint my nails like theirs. She did too! My mom was great. But she didn't understand when I kept insisting I was a girl, and wouldn't let me dress like them. So I stopped talking about it. I still spent the rest of my life hanging out with the girls.

I don't relate to men.
I will post new ones when I have something to post. But that might not be for a while...

But hopefully not too long! I'm so excited to starting this journey and to find a great place like this. OK, I'm getting teary.. I better stop.
