Title: Hello
Post by: Zach R on June 19, 2011, 09:27:58 PM
Decided to move from lurker and finally introduce myself. 

FTM I have felt this way since forever, but haven't had the 'guts' to do anything about it.  Something that I'd research and then put it on the back burner.  I finally decided to make an appointment with a gender therapist and start moving forward.  I am over 30, have a 6 yr old son, and still haven't come out to anyone. For some reason I'm seeing this as more difficult than coming out as a lesbian!   

If anyone has any suggestions/resources in Minnesota I'd be interested in hearing about them.  Or any experiences with MN Blue Cross Blue Shield.

Thanks all.

Hi Arctic, :icon_wave:

Welcome to our little family. Over 7400 strong. That would be one heck of a family reunion.

But remember we are family here, your family now. And it is always nice to have another brother. :icon_hug:

Welcome, Arctic Wolf, you'll enjoy it here. I've only been here for a couple days (not that often at that) and I love it!  ;D

Hey man welcome to the site
I think you'll find that there is a huge range of ages on here, and a lot of us have had to deal with sexuality before approaching gender.  Here's hoping we can help you out some.
Good luck!
