Hello!

[Calder Smith]

Hello there, the name is Calder and I'm a teenage trans-guy. I joined this site to get some advice from fellow FTMs as I haven't come out yet to my parents (only a few close friends) and I don't really have anyone to talk to about this. I've always been a tomboy but I haven't really started feeling like I actually wanted to be a guy until about a year ago. I'm kind of confused about all the stuff I'll need to you know, pass as a guy (I'm pretty sure I'm not yet old enough to start T) and I hope some of you will help me with that.

Welcome, Mr. Hockey!  Nice to meet you.

As Henry said, we have a great FtM community here.  I am going to guess you are from Canada or the Northeast.  Don't you find it odd, though, that the two best NHL teams are from here in southern California?

A big warm welcome to the family! You have found the right place for any information about what you are going through as well as support, caring and some fun to break the stress. I hope you have a good time with us. PM if you ever need anything. Here is a BIG HUG ( ) to get you started out right!

Hey dude, welcome to the forum!

Yeah, this stuff is totally confusing, especially if your going through your teens, which are a rollercoaster even for cisgender folk.  But it is also the best time to deal with HRT- so good timing!  Just know you only have to ask and we are all behind you.  We certainly all understand the situation!  And hey, don't just hang with the ftms- scruffy bunch of bad asses they are, do come say hi to the mtfs from time to time too!  Lol.

Thanks guys for all the warm welcomes! And Jamie, I'm a huge Sabres fan from Buffalo, N.Y.; Anaheim and San Jose are doing very well this year.

The Ducks are leading the division right now, but the Sharks and the Kings are #2 and #3.  Very competitive.

Buffalo, well, off year I suppose.

Yeah it's disappointing but at least our future looks bright. Ted Nolan, Pat LaFontaine and newly hired GM Tim Murray.. that's one hell of a staff.

I'm surprised that the West is dominating this year, most of the time it's all about the East. I wouldn't be surprised if a Cali team wins the Cup or makes the Finals.
