Hi everyone I am new to the site. My name is DeShelia but I am looking more into changing my gender because I suffer from not being happy or confident because of my gender and who I am so I recently just started using the name Drew. I am 22 years old and ever since I was little I have always felt like I was born in the wrong body. Now that I am living on my own and am considering having a child with my fiance in the near future I want to go through the FTM process so I can be happy and truly be a father to my children. I joined the site to read some of your stories and to get some of the answers to some questions I have from those of you who have already gone through the beginning stages of the journey i am about to begin.

Hi Drew,

Welcome to our little family. Over 11840 . 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 brother.
