Title: Over-30's?
Post by: Kreuzfidel on November 04, 2011, 02:20:02 AM
I don't want this to be taken out of context or misconstrued as something against our younger members, but as a suggestion, I would be thrilled to see a sub-forum for over-30's individuals, especially transsexual individuals.  While I understand the importance of helping young people, there are a great many issues (especially lifestyle, work and health issues) that adult transsexuals have to deal with that differ from the issues of the younger generation.  I have just seen so many members in their teens here, especially FTMs, that I feel a bit out of place sometimes.  Again, just a suggestion and it does not mean that I have no interest in young people's issues, but it would be nice to see an older perspective especially with issues such as hormones, surgery ramifications and lifestyles.  Thank you for listening.

I'd like to see something like that, also.

This seems to be a good idea to me, too.

Over 30, or over 40-50-etc, then MtF-FtM-Andro, etc.

It could become unlimited. 

We do have a diverse age group here and we do have issues that differ by age and other factors.

I'm not sure of how to answer your request, it does have merit.

I have brought this idea up with admin before.
I was told it was a good idea but logisticaly it would be too much of a headache to impliment.
