Hi everyone! I just recently had the epiphany that I am a transgender person (I was born female) a few days ago. Up till then, I had 'flirted' with the idea, but I just thought I was Butch. It's all so complicated. Once I really said the words out loud, though, and allowed myself to really think the notion through, it all felt 'right'. It all clicked into place and I felt so immensely relieved. It was like I had been living in a dark room with a tiny bit of sunlight and then somebody threw open the big shutters and flooded the room with light. It was overwhelming and wonderful all at the same time. I live with my wife and our many fur kids on the Sunshine Coast in BC, Canada. We just moved here from a colder part of the Country, so it's all been one huge upheaval. I find myself without friends, without a job, in a house I really don't like..and now the Gods have revealed this little life fact to me. I swear I must be a favourite of Loki and Discord's. lol :) Anyway, I wanted to come here and hear your stories, and maybe find Community. I have never felt a part of any Community, always been on the outside looking in. Reading some of your stories all ready, it al feels familiar, so maybe I found my 'tribe' this time round. I sure hope so. I just wanted to say hello, and introduce myself a bit, and I look forward to getting to know you all.

Welcome Colt to Susan's family,
Well i am from the colder part of the country, or well i am old so seems more colder then i like it to be.
Everyone has there own way of coming to a idea they may fit in the GD spectrum.
I would suggest looking for a gender therapist in your area for some guidance.
Baby steps, little step or big steps are all things we do on this path of life. Just remember it is not a race to the finish line, its more a walk with obstetrical sometimes in our way.
Safe passage on your path, popcorn?

You are all awesome! Thanks for the kind welcome. I'm very happy to have found this wonderful place. :)
Hi Colt! Welcome to the forum. When you said Sunshine Coast at first I thought you were referring to the Sunshine Coast in Queensland Australia, north of my current locale. But you meant even further north!! :D

I thought he mine the Bay Area in California. :D
Welcome to the site, Colt. :)
Yeah there's definitely more than one Sunshine Coast. ;D I discovered that when we moved here. I love Australia, I wouldn't mind living there (except for the bugs. Australia has some of the biggest, creepiest bugs on the planet. Ugh lol)
