Hey there everyone.

I got pointed to this forum from another forum I am also on. Though, that is not really a forum like anything like this.

I have never really done anything like this before, so I am not really sure where I should start really since this kind of forum is very much new to me.

I'm 23 years old, you can call me Dalex. I was born a female, but I have always felt ether genderless or a male. Up until now, every time I have spoken about this, I have just been told that I am confused or going through a phase. And I get told that even more so now, after I was diagnosed with PTSD after three and a half years a few years back, that many have described as torture, that also were followed with other not so fun events. But I am not going to go too much into that. It is not really a happy fun story's with butterflies and rainbows.

Any who! Since I am getting off topic here... Yes, I'm 23 years old, and live on a tiny little island in the middle of nowhere that has been called the island of fire and ice. My sexual preference? Can I say personality? If I like someone, I have never looked at the gender, they are who they are. I love to draw, paint, sing, and almost anything that has to do with my hands. I have been told I am very much down to earth, but can be extremely hyper and random at times. I'm shy, clumsy and timid at certain points, and I love to make people laugh.

I now managed to gather up the courage, since this time I don't want to climb up into bed, turn off the lights and hide myself away. This time, I'm trying to just approach this head out and be vocal, and find out who I am.

I think this turned out to become a lot longer then I had firstly planned... So! I think I will have this as the end! I hope you will all take very good care of me.

*Bows, headbutting the keyboard*

Ehm, yes.  Hey there everyone ^^

Hi Dalex, welcome to Susan's!

Any chance you're related to the Daleks? FYI, exterminating is prohibited.

 

*HUGS*

Amy

Thank you all for the very nice welcome! And I read through all of the links Janet, which is the reason why it took me a moment to reply again. And Visitor 591, it does indeed rhyme with "I see Land!"
But as for hugs, they are only sometimes okey. As long as I can see them coming and prepare myself for it.
Hehe, no Amy, sadly I am not related to the Daleks  
Again, thank you all for the very nice welcome

Whoa, Dalex, you sound like you could be my twin from a parallel universe. o.O lol

Everything you wrote, I could apply that whole thing to myself and nearly all of it would be true.  No joke.  o__________O *cue Twilight Zone music*

I'm also in my twenties, (27, so a little older) also born female, but always felt more like a male or somewhere in-between.  I also have a lot of creative hobbies including writing, drawing and composing music.  I'm a dork, you sound like a dork (I mean that in the most affectionate of ways!!) We should be friends!

I also like your stance on sexual orientation.  Personality is a good one!

Anyway, I just joined the forums too.  When I posted my intro the other day that was the first time I have ever outwardly expressed it to anyone.  Glad you gathered the courage to take that first step!  It was a hard step to take for me, but I found I felt so much better when I finally did it.  Everyone here is super nice! 

Welcome from a noob and fellow arteest!

*Blinks eyes and listens the Twilight Zone music* Where the fu- did tha- Ahh... I see ._.

Well, pleasure to meet you Kai! And yes, you are right... A huge, major dork and I love it! And it is always great to meet a fellow dork! *salutes so hard, that I leave a bruise on my own forehead*

*rubs forehead* And thank you I thought my sexual orientation seemed fitting to place as personality xP
And also, thank you. It did take very much courage... Even though I don't know anyone here personally. It still was such a huge step, and it took me a while before I could actually get myself to start typing.
And yes! I would very much like being your friend

Welcome, Dalex!

This is might my favorite place anywhere. I made my first post only 3 days ago, so I'm really just another newb. And I was terrified. I'd never told anyone before. The response has been amazing. I can't say enough good things about this place. These are some awesome people.

If anyone gives you trouble, let me know. I'll totally make Kai take care of it. 

::hugs::

Thank you very much Maggie! *hugs*

And hehe x3 I will remember that! Wow, I don't think I have ever been as much accepted before :3

It was hard coming out as bisexual, due to the fact I looked past the gender and looked for personalities. I got harsh words thrown at me from both sides, really. One of the more common one, was that I just came out as Bi because I was too scared to come out as a gay. The second, was that it was an attempt to get an attention. So, I have never dared to say anything about how I feel what I am on the inside. So

*super hugs everyone*
Really, thank you all so much.

Oh yes, it has become a bit crazy. Even more so, considering it is now 8:28 AM where I am I should not be this hyper after being awake for so long. But, somehow, even if it was coming out with all of this to people I don't personally know, I am just feeling rather excited! That, plus energy drinks xP And oh! If you like Secy and I know it, by LMFO, I recommend you search up 'Noah Cover of "Sexy and I Know It" by LMFAO' And even if you don't like that song... That cover is just great!
