Title: Hi i'm Ty :D
Post by: Kulti on July 31, 2014, 11:48:47 AM
Hey there guys n' gals.

My name's Tyson, nice to meet you. I'm from Texas and currently living with parents who know nothing about my life. So that's a great way to start. I'm in college, hence why the parental living situation. I could dig into my demons, but let's say that my life growing up has been the standard Southern Baptist way of growing up as a female. (No offense to Christians! Just my family lol)

I've identified as a Trans guy for almost a year now, only to close friends and on the internet. Ups and downs and learning myself has been hell, but i'm sure you can all relate. *shrug* It's hard for me because i'm so indecisive, so my automatic thought is "what if it's a phase?". I took breaks from 'trans' and was just me, or was girly, or ... yeah nothing else seemed to stick. Realizations from how i was when i was younger, what i used to do, how i acted and who i hung out with. All these signs point to it, and i think i'm just scared.

I have a binder, though i need a new (smaller?) one. I never wear it. I'm always at home and fear that they would notice - which they would considering my natural chest size.... Yay.

Anyway, rambling aside. I found susan's aaaages ago and just now learned of the forum. I was more shocked when i realized it was active, as most places i'd seen were not. I live in a small town in Texas, so i don't have any resources except my boyfriend (who is trans as well) and a few friends who i rarely see or talk to. The forum here seems nice, from me hovering over it for a week now, so ...yeah.

Thanks for reading all my mess <3

-Ty

A big warm welcome to the family Tyson!  :) I am from North of the Red River (Go Pokes)! *giggle* ;D Anyway I am glad you found us and decided to join. This place is amazing and there is always something going on. My Endo and Pharmacist was so impressed and wanted to learn even more to help trans patients that they joined as well. There is just something really special here.  :)

Please read these very important topics

I'm in one of the hottest driest places on Earth, freezing cold and in a thunderstorm.

Miserable and cold - and yes Jess I'm complaining.

What's Red River?

I remember an old john wayne movie of the name

What's the Red River??? Poor Aussie!  :D

It is the river that separates Oklahoma and Texas College football. One of the biggest rivalries in the U.S.!  ;)
