Title: Setting my birthday?
Post by: KabitTarah on January 02, 2014, 06:17:02 AM
I just set my birthday to my re-birthday... August 5th, 2013. I have a feeling that will be more meaningful, at least here, than my actual birthday.

Will there be any problems being so "young?" (if only :P)

You know... I started HRT on 27 December, and I was counting down the days for months. . . but I think August 5th will always be more important to me. It was when I had a new, clear personal awareness. That awareness grew over the next two to three months. I say I'm not a different person, but that day did change me in a way. It changed me far more than HRT will.

~~ Proud to be almost 5 months old ;)

You won't be allowed into the secret drinking areas on the site - underage  ;)

It only affects when Susan sends her birthday greetings. No difference otherwise. Mine has no birthday listed as I am ageless.

Do you really want to be shaking anyone's hands in the sexuality forum though?

Not sure when my birthday should be. Should it be the day I first joined Susan's and began my exploration and discovery (4/23/12), the day I first went out dressed (8/25/12), the day I went full time (6/13/13), or the day of my SRS (planned to be 6/19/13)?

Which is the most meaningful for you? For me, coming out was like a light switch I flipped... one day I was just a guy with gender issues, the next day I was a trans girl. OK... that maybe took a week to a month... but the first day started it all and really was a revelation to me.

FAQ question here: Can you set your birthday to a future date?
