My name is Sam. I'm 19 years old, biologically female. Um, I've been questioning my gender for quite a while.. I still haven't reached a firm decision at all, and I'm just hoping to learn more through this forum    I've been lurking for a bit, and I figured it couldn't hurt to join in on the conversation. Even though I'm really nervous about it, considering I've never mentioned this subject to my friends or family, and I don't know if I could. But idk. Here I am anyways, hello everyone!

Welcome to the forum Sam, I hope you learn the info you are searching for Always nice to meet a new person. So can I ask your preferred gender pronoun like he, she, or just Sam?

She is fine by me    thank you.

Hey there Sam. I'm a yr long partner with a pre-T FTM. You actually remind me a little of a book I'm reading called "F2M: The Boy Within". You could look it up if you want...Anyway, I found this place to be very informative for all those in the trans community, whether it be finding out info to understand how you feel on the inside or a partner or a transgender.

Hope you find what you need and welcome~

Welcome! I'm just new here too. There is no rush in coming to a conclusion about your gender. And even if you do it's really not a conclusion as our gender is and remains fluid for the rest of our lives. The most important thing I've found is to try and be happy and not worry so much about labels or what other people think about you. Also, coming-out seems like a big deal before you do it but afterwards you look back and realise it's not so big after all. But, as I said, there's no rush, take things slow and you decide what pace you take. Good luck with your path!
