Hello everyone! My name is Nova. I am currently 18, and while I have not transitioned yet (due to financial, familial and psychological problems), I'm planning on it in the near future.
I can't honestly say I've always thought that I wanted to be a girl; it really started to express itself when I was about 10-12, but I didn't really comprehend that I really wanted to be female. I finally realized what was going on when I started reading the comic Venus Envy, which is about a young transexual girl and her misadventures in high school. When I told my parents about it, they were...less than enthusiastic. By that, they thought that the devil was trying to trick me and this "spirit of homosexuality" was wrong and that I should trust Jesus. Since then it's buried itself in my subconscious, but lately my desire to be female has finally managed to come out in full force, and I'm working on finally satiating it.
Sorry if the intro seems really disjointed or badly written, I just really have no idea on how to talk about this kind of stuff. I"ve never been the best with words =P. Well, anyway, it's nice meeting you guys. I'm gonna go listen to The Polyphonic Spree.
