Hello people,
My name's Victor, I'm 24 year old, and I live in London. OK I've been lurking around here for a little bit and I thought it was time I introduce myself to the community. First though I'd like to ask if it is OK for a cisgendered male to post here or not? If it turns out that the latter is the case then consider this my first and final post and I'd like to take this opportunity to apologise for intruding. However if it turns out that it is OK for me to post then I'd like say thank you for the opportunity to get to know you all and make friends with you folks.
In order to help people have an idea of who I am I thought I would post a short list of things about myself so here we goes:
1. I'm a gamer and my favour games are Mass Effect 2, Skyrim, and Shogun Total War 2.
2. My favour book is Dune by Frank Herbert
3. I love comic books and I am a big fan of Batman
4. I love music especially Metal and Black Sabbath is the best metal band ever.
5. I am afraid of large open bodies of water (e.g. Oceans, Lakes, and Bays etc).
6. I love poetry particularly Tennyson stuff, but I also partial to Walt Whitman.
7. I love Chemistry and Physics
8. I am Dog person I just can't stand Cats.
9. Red is my favourite colour
I don't know what else to say but if you have any questions just ask.

Hi Victor from London, I'm Devlyn from Boston, welcome to Susans! I'm an AC/DC fan, just the early stuff with Bon Scott. We're glad to make new friends of any variety, but did you come here to talk music and games or do you have something transgender related on your mind? Either way, you'll find lots of people here to talk to. See you around, hugs, Devlyn PS Don't look, but there's an Atlantic......something between us!

"do you have something transgender related on your mind?"
Devlyn@
My I ask what you mean by this as the question is very broad and some of the topics associated with TG can be very personal. And thank you for the welcome also I agree AC/DC have a good sound and their early stuff was very interesting.

Hi Victor, I didn't mean to sound like I was prying. Transgender issues are indeed personal and private sometimes. Welcome to the site and see you around, hugs, Devlyn

Hi Victor,
A big Aussie welcome to the family at Susan's. Heck no, we take on all comers here. The more you understand the TG community, the more you will understand yourself. You just never know when or if you may be called upon to help someone.
Hopfully I'll hear more of your story in time to come. But in the meantime, please enjoy the information and resources here, and be safe, well and happy.
Lotsa huggs
Catherine

Welcome Victor! It's great to see a cisgendered person introducing himself! I guarantee that you will find the people here very accepting, it shows a lot that you've come here and feel comfortable introducing yourself. We're all here to help. Whether trans or not, it's about spreading of information. I'm positive that you're welcome to continue posting.
I'm completely jealous that you live in London, I visited a year and a half ago and have been dreaming of the big city ever since. It's probably just a tourist feeling, but there's just something about it that is very attractive to me. Perhaps you'll see me on the streets sometime in the future (as if that weren't a "needle in a haystack" possibility :laugh: ). Cheers!

Devlyn@
Hello again I just wanted to say that on rereading my last response to you I found it to be a little snappy so I would like to apologise if I offended you as that was not my intent.
Felix@
I'm pleased to meet you and thank you for the welcome and the information. By the way my name is Victor also your name is cool if you don't mind me saying so.
Catherine@
I'm glad to make your acquaintance and thank you for such a warm welcome and I also hope to get know you better.
pidgeontoed@
Thank you so much for your lovely welcome. Also don't be jealous of me I was born and raised here and I can say with a lot of certainty that London is a charming and beautiful place but it also as much dark parts to its character so much so that I now prefer the countryside to the big city.
Anyways thank you all for reading and commenting. :)

Victor, I figured as the first one to reply that I might as well ask the obvious question. No one has to reveal anything about themselves to join us. See you around the site. Hugs, Devlyn

Thanks Victor. Btw I love Walt Whitman, and I'm also pretty bugged out by open bodies of water.
