Title: Hello again
Post by: John Bull on May 11, 2012, 07:08:37 PM
Hello Everyone,

My name is Victor. I registered a while back and made a  introduction post  about myself but I wasn't really upfront with why I'm here or what I wanted from this place. This was mainly because I had issues with what I was going through and I really didn't understand what I felt. However in the interval since my last time posting here I have come to understand that what I was experiencing was a feeling of alienation from my current gender identity (which is that of a man). I have struggled for many years with this issue and my desire to closely mimic females in my presentation and expression of myself. I now have come to the point where I wish to explore this part of me and I am ok for the most with the fact that I feel drawn towards a more feminine expression of myself e.g. wearing makeup, women's clothes, and so on. I have never felt comfortable discussing how I felt with anyone but I wish to get help with this problem and think the people here on this site may be able to offer me insight into myself. 

Anyways thanks for reading

Victor

Welcome, Victor.

When I found this site 4 years ago, I was just beginning to explore my gender identity. Through this site and working with various therapists (and a Zen priest), I came to better understand my identity and began transitioning last year.

I think you'll find that there are others here in situations similar to your own. You aren't alone.

If you haven't already done so, please review the site rules and terms of service (http://"https://www.susans.org/forums/index.php/topic,2.0.html").

Enjoy your stay!
