hello everyone!
today is a pretty special day to me; it marks my eleventh month on hrt
so to celebrate, i thought i'd sign up to the forum i always end up on when my girlfriend and i google stuff for my transition..
we have learned a lot here, and i am looking forward to being able to actually interact with all you lovely people :D
what to say about myself by way of introduction?
i'm a crazy australian girl, living it up on the West Coast in antipodean splendour
rapidly advancing towards my third decade on this planet and trying to make my body match my mind
whilst attending as many punk rock shows and staying as far from sober as possible at any given moment.
i'm into all sorts of obscure noise you probably hate
i'm undeniably an evil influence [decepticons unite]
i call myself a fine artist but the word 'despicable' can be swapped for 'fine' interchangeably.
i've known exactly what i was [a girl, i mean] since '99, and so have most of my friends
but i didn't learn that transgender is even a thing til several years later, by which time my confidence was so battered
by my family using 'girl' as an insult for me [they didn't know, they just thought it was an appropriate insult] that i thought i could never
ever possibly be right in myself... that was my status quo, desperately wanting to transition but terrified i would be stuck halfway,
until fifteen months ago this very day, when i met the love of my life, and everything began to slide into place.
now i am totally Out, to family, friends, bosses, you name it, and working on changing my official documentation as i type
[or... procrastinating from working on, whatever]
my real journey is still of course only just beginning and there is still so very much for me to learn
and i am looking forward to sharing that journey with so many sweet ladies :D
thank you for reading! i hope we can all be truly evil together!

A warm welcome from another of the Adelaide girls.. You'll fit in just fine here.. :)
wow, i've met more fellow australian Girls in one post than in my entire transition so far...
i knew signing up was the right idea!
right now i'm stationed in Perth, but that's liable to change at a moment's notice
both my girlfriend and i are very wanderlust types
as soon as we find somewhere we'll be more welcome and comfortable nothing will stop us getting there :D
yay evil!

We are breeding like rabbits here, many more of the Aussie mafia here at Susan's, so be afraid. Very afraid... :laugh:
Cough.
Jenny has Myxomatosis but we don't talk about it.
Laura, not to interrupt old home week down under, but a warm welcome to the site, from sunny southern California! :)
Hi Laura, welcome to Susan's Place! I'm from Boston, the northern annex of Australia. This is where all the tea comes from. Hold on, I'll send you some .... <throws chest of tea in harbour>........ there, that should find its way to you! See you around the site, hugs, Devlyn
