Title: Hi There
Post by: ema_m on June 15, 2018, 12:30:25 PM
Hi there, I'm Emmalyn (but I don't know, that might change). I am 41 AMAB, married with a young daughter and pre everything accept coming out to myself, wife and a few friends. I have been intimidated about opening an account here. ->-bleeped-<- is one thing, this place makes it feel more real though, and that's exciting.

I still have doubts but have come to the conclusion that I am a transgender person, either TransFemme or a Transgender Woman. I am still trying to figure the labels out, like which one fits me. I plan on starting HRT, just waiting for the doctor to set up an appointment.

I have major doubts sometimes, especially after I come out to someone new.

Well that's about it for me, who I am in a nutshell. Thanks for reading and it's nice to meet you all

Hi Ema_m
I know how you feel. I went through a similar scenario a couple of years ago. Like you I made a decision to start HRT. Glad I did. I have learned a lot as a result. I believe the uncertainty can only be undone through trial & experience .
All the very best with your life plans.
Kirsten.
