Hi everyone. I have been thinking I am female for a long time and have decided it's time to act...It was such a great feeling to talk to a professional about transitioning mtf, they made me feel that it was perfectly okay to identify as a women and the natural thing to do, also reading the stories on susans has given me the confidence to come out and say Hi.

Hi I am new here too. good luck in your travels. Have a great day .

Hello LusciousBeauty, welcome to Susan's!

Thank you for joining and for posting in the Introductions forum.  It's so much nicer to be able to interact instead of just reading - that's what I found when I joined.  Talking to people here with similar experiences helped build my confidence.  And I'm glad you talked to a professional, I also found that very help helpful. 

See you around!

Kendra

hi and thanks for your warm welcomes. I have taken the next step and made an appointment with a doctor who prescribes hormones for mtf transitioning... i can't wait, 2 weeks and I will be on my way although I may have to see a psyc first. the last week i have been gaining confidence and browsing and  buying womens lingerie and clothes-it feels so liberating, and i don't care anymore at the looks i get from the sales attendants, i feel emboldened and one women staff member helped me with my bra, i think she was turned on that I was wearing womens lingerie
... more soon .
have a great day,

Michelle

Welcome and may many good things and results come your way!

Hi LusciousBeauty 🙋‍♀️ I'm Jessica. Nice to meet you.  Glad your here!

Welcome.  I am glad that the posts here have helped you.  It is one of the reasons that I am trying to post myself.  Knowing that there are people who feel almost identically to myself (even amongst the huge diversity of trans women) is really helpful.  I am not alone!

I still find it difficult to go shopping.  I kinda play it off as me shopping for my wife.  The big problem is when doing that, I can't try stuff on.  So far I have only really frequented thrift stores (there is some REALLY NICE stuff there) so at least if I get something that is a little too small, I am not breaking the bank.  Also, as I intend to lose a large amount of weight, those garments might fit better in a month or so.

        Cya around!
