Hey, I'm Leo. I'm a 16 year old ftm from Michigan. I've been lurking these forums for a while, but I figured I'd finally join.
I came out last year, and I've been on T for just over 2 months now. My parents are super accepting, which I'm unfathomably grateful for, and I'm hoping that I'll be able to get top surgery within the next year or two.
I recently switched schools, and though I'm stealth and completely presenting as male, I've been having a lot of trouble passing. I think it's because a lot of people don't know me, so they assume I'm female at a first glance. It's tough, but I'm hoping that will change soon when the T starts to really kick in.
Anyways, I hope to get to know some of you guys.
