Title: A new FTM
Post by: Nygeel on August 02, 2009, 11:46:47 PM
Hello everybody. I'm a trans-masculine identified person that's stuck in a somewhat crappy situation. I'm also on trueselves and urnotalone but don't really feel acceptance on any trans-forums. Hopefully this will be a bit different. I'm not entirely sure where I fit within the gender spectrum, nor do I know if I want testosterone (I've been pondering it for 2-3 years). Sooo yea...

Hi Nygeel. That's okay. I think we've all been at that point where we weren't sure how we wanted our transition to go. I'm Nero. Welcome.

Hi Nygeel,

Life takes time. But you are in the right place. And welcome Bro, or Sis, or both. I don't have a problem with any of it, at an intelluctual and mental level. I'm really p**d off at the physical level with me.

Cindy

Welcome.  We have people here who identify all over the gender spectrum.  I'm sure you'll fit in just fine.  :)

Welcome.  In some ways, I dislike the idea of a gender spectrum because to me that implies a two-dimensional line with male at one end and female at the other.  I think gender is much more complex than that, with nodes where lots of people are but large spaces where only a few of us are.  And it's all good. :D

This is a good place to explore those perplexing questions, like: What am I? :P

Welcome, Nygeel.

I have a pretty good idea. I've been living near full time as male for 3 years and I'm still not 100% sure if transitioning is for me.

We have people here who identify as all walks of life here and who also do not identify anywhere so I am sure you will fit in.
But welcome to Susans. Take a look around and feel free to share your story and opinions.
