Post by: darksou on July 12, 2024, 07:34:35 AM
Hello, everyone. I'm a 25 year old nonbinary person looking for community to talk about experiences related to being transgender. I have been out as trans (but people assume I'm a trans man) for a few years and U'm reaching my 10th month of hormonal therapy with testosterone. I plan on doing top surgery next year and I'm already planning my phalloplasty.

Hope we can learn more with each other by sharing experiences.

Well you certainly have come to the right place to talk about issues that concern the 'transgender' community.  Just remember that all you have to do is ask a question or seek help and other members of Susan's will come along and offer their advice that might help resolve your issue.

Also remember that what ever you post here is open to the public and anybody is able to read it.  So only share what you are comfortable with.

Continuing with your hormones and with time people will see you and gender you correctly.  If you search for FTM videos on YouTube, you will see the stunning transformations that are possible.  However, I'm sure you know this already

I see that you have made yourself comfortable here on Susan's joining in some of the current conversations.  Please keep doing so as I like reading what others post and I will appreciate it very much as I'm always interested in learning something new about new members.

In addition members of Susan's will more than likely will discuss problems or issues that are similar to yours as most have experienced these issues as well.

Take care and all the best for the future.

Once again, Welcome to Susan's Place!

Hi darksou and welcome to Susan's Place.  The people here are wonderful.  I have found, If you are open to them, they will open their arms and hearts to you.  We all have experiences that are different that, when shared, give a different perspective to our specific journey.

I wish you the best as you get to know us and we get to know you.  Please take advantage of the resources here.

Once again, welcome!
