Hi there. As you can probably guess, I'm very new to all this, so I apologize in advance for stupid questions/thoughtless turns of phrase. I'm trying hard, and learn quickly. :)
I mentioned this in the "Introduction" thread, and was hoping for some pointers. I am middle-aged and very new to my non-binary nature (although in retrospect it's clear it's been inside me a long, long time and I've just been pushing it aside/denying it/pretending it's not the case--I'm sure folks can relate). I have no current plans to transition or even cross-dress, but it's not impossible that may change as I continue to get adjusted to my new perspective. In the meantime, it's mostly discovering new things that I enjoy during sexual play, new types of physical bodies and presentations I'm finding myself attracted to, ways I would like my own body to be sexually different, etc.
As such, where is a good support community/forum for newbies like myself? This set of Forums overall seems like it might be good, but I'm not sure where to dive in; it's all a bit daunting. And I very much don't want to do something stupid, something equivalent to, say, using the word "->-bleeped-<-", but am very aware I probably will.
So any suggestions? I'm already working through Kate Bornstein's "My New Gender Workbook" and am finding that very helpful. What other suggestions might folks have?
Thanks.
I am guessing that you have done a self assessment on your non-binary feelings.
Still being this path can be such a daunting path and find a therapist to help you explore all these feelings.
Reason I mention this finding that balance is hard on ones emotions and having a support system is truly needed.
I wish you luck, look around the Non-binary section if that's where you Identify.
All questions are worth asking. Just review the TOS that was given to you at the interdiction and you should fair well.
I guess it comes to more what your ask over how you ask.
Hugs

I'd say take the time you need... its a process, but many gone it before and succeeded, and people here will try to support you.
And you might keep asking questions, alone writing might help getting a clearer view on a few things....
