Title: Hey all
Post by: RaiJaxO on August 24, 2018, 11:51:17 PM
I'm Riley, 26yo transman from Alaska. I've been officially out for three years now and started hormones Obtober last year though I've been off them for a few months now due to losing my insurance. Been tough, but I'm in a better place than I would have been if I hadn't been on them at all cause now I know, y'know? Taking it one day at a time and clinging to positivity  for the life of me. Idk other trans people and I keep thinking of topics I want to discuss with other trans people... that I don't know. SO instead of talking to myself again I decided to come here and here I am! Hi!

Hi RaiJax0

Welcome to our little corner of the net...lots of great guys hang out here and I am sure at least one of them will be along soon to intro themselves. Have a hunt through the forums and you will see there is so much ion the way of information. Failing that just post a question and I am sure someone will jump in and give you a perspective. There is a FTM area which you can post in as well. Have fun and let us know if there is anything we can do to help.

Take care

Liz

Hi Riley.

It's great that you decided to talk to us instead of just yourself. It's a bit hard to get new points of view and new information alone. ;)


I've just started my journey. I'm on a "coming out crusade" at the moment. Did not realize I know so many people. I tell them face to face. That's my thing. Easier to answer questions face to face than on a face book post. It's more personal that way.

Anyways. Welcome from Sweden.
