Hi everyone, I am new here, but figured i would finally say hi.
By new i mean i finally have a profile, I've been lurking for the better part of the last 3-4 years (pretty sure its been that long =P) but I finally feel decent enough to come in and introduce myself. Also, THANK YOU ALL, without reading the posts here i would have never had the courage to be me.

By the way, like most of the other girls here, I'm in the first stages too. HRT for ten months, and trying to figure out how to pay for the things i need. I live full time as myself, and have for nearly half a year. Below is one of the only pictures i have let people take, I'm usually cam shy but i had a couple drinks (very rare for me now) and said OK. Really bad pic i know, but drunken halloween crawl = bad photographers with cam phones.

Hi Gen

Thank you, I read through all of the rules and TOS. I will happily abide by everything set out in them.

Thank you for the compliment, I personally think I look awful in photos, but i appreciate the compliment.

Oh, I forgot to say, I am of legal age to drink, so no issues with my picture =P

Hi Gen, welcome from Boston! We're glad you decided to stop lurking and join in the conversation. The more, the merrier! See you around, hugs, Devlyn

Hi and welcome, Gen - and see my recent post if you want to know how to post a Flickr picture directly here, instead of links (we prefer this) - I fixed your post, hope that's okay.

Hi Gen,

Welcome to our little family. Over 8748 strong. That would be one heck of a family reunion.

Feel free to post your successes/failures, Hopes/dreams.  Ask questions and seek answers. Give and receive advice.

But remember we are family here, your family now. And it is always nice to have another sister.
