Hi everyone, I have had little interaction in my life with community or support groups. Transitioned over a decade ago in a small rural town in Australia. Seems like a friendly forum.
Maybe I can help some of the people who are newer to this and learn some things from those who are more experienced.

Hello Serenation welcome. Yes this is a friendly forum and the Australian contingent seems to be growing daily. Having visited a few of our rural towns myself in the past myself my I say I'm in awe of you please how did you do it. While I have found them to be straight shooters I can't imagine how difficult it could of been for you.
So let me give you a big East Coast hug :icon_hug: and say welcome to Susan's

Welcome Serenation!
Another of the Aussie contingent wandering by to say hello..
I came out as a gay guy in a smallish rural town in the 90's.. An interesting experience that didn't do the way I expected at all..

Hi kelly , Hi Immortal thanks hugs.
Hug thanks, I'm from east coast also. Transitioning was not so bad for me as I had pretty severe androgen deficiency, so people where already used to me being feminine I think half of them never knew I wasnt female in the first place, those that did where happy I was finally doing something about it, and those that I had to tell I was transitioning were like ok that makes sense.
Of course my family and some friends took it very hard. Lost some friends, made some new ones.

Welcome from Sydney
There must be something in the water here in OZ. ???
Looks like we're going to wear out the branding irons.
