Hi, my name is Oliver and I'm Female to Male. I'm 22 and living in the United States. I'm currently attending college but I graduate at the end of fall semester with a degree in Graphic Design. I've been lurking on your boards for a while. I was kind of nervous about joining but I finally decided to just force myself to.
Anyway, for the last several years I've been wishing I had been born male. I started daydreaming about myself as a male and gave myself a male name. Whenever I created characters for games I always made them male and went by my new name. Some nights going to bed I would wish I could wake up as a male. It wasn't until a couple months ago that I realized there was something that explained how I was feeling or that it was possible to do something about it.
I'm going to try to come on here regularly but I have a habit of joining forums and then not keeping up. I hope I'm not rambling on too much for an introduction. I've never been real good at knowing what to write for them.

Hello Oliver and welcome. You can come by as often as you like and stay for as long as you want-it's soley up to you but it's a good place to find answers to questions or get help with something if you need it.
