Title: Hi, everyone!
Post by: ReticentRose on January 02, 2014, 10:46:07 AM
Hi, everyone! My name's Katrina, I'm 30 years old, and, though I haven't been lurking here very long, you all seemed so nice that I thought I would go ahead and introduce myself. I live in Florida. I work primarily in web development. I'm not transitioning, but I'm "feeding the need" through other outlets-- writing, trying to become less of an introvert, exploring the spectrum of gray (I dare not refer to the shades-- you'll even note the refusal to spell it with an "e") that is gender expression itself, and allowing myself the occasional indulgence into actually prodding at the idea of being physically passable as a woman to everyone else in the world.

I'm looking forward to talking to you all more and becoming more familiar with the site!

A warm and sunny southern California welcome to you, Katrina.  Glad you found us.

I think most of the folks who stop by and/or register here do it because they are "feeding the need" to explore their gender identity.

I think you will find quite a bit of information here, and with any small amount of luck, a new and understanding friend or two.  Well, you already found two!  Shan is as nice as they come.

Hi Katrina,

You don't need to transition to be welcome here. We accept everyone, mostly because there's no right or wrong way to be you. Welcome to the family. I look forward to seeing you around. :)

A big warm welcome to the family! Nothing is off limits here really, except Maggie's chocolate stash.*giggle*. This is a support family so ask and dream away.  :)
