Hi everyone,
Just thought I'd give myself a quick introduction. These forums have given me so much hope and understanding in my journey to work myself out and I guess if nothing else I'd like to thank you all for that. Kudos!
I'm a genetic male whose finally coming to the understanding of myself being androgenous, it's been quite a fraught time with a lot of soul searching but I'm finally understanding my makeup as a person.
My story comes from a particually oppressive time just after I'd quit university when I was 20. After being prescribed many anti-depressive meds and spiralling into nervous breakdowns and isolation I had finally discovered my true calling in life.... housewife ;D.
A long repressed desire to simply stay at home and care for those around me came gushing like a great wave over me... and has really helped me stave off those all encroaching depressive thoughts. I grew my hair, started wearing girls summer tops, and it all felt entirely natural. I really want to explore this side of me further, so I can finally be myself, instead of a socially woven collection of stereotyping.
Now then, what do I do with that information? LOL. Always another question.
This is my first step into accepting my femininity and I'm overcome that I've found this place. Many thanks!
Chrissie

Hello.
Coming away from university makes you realise how restrictive the outside world is doesn't it?
