Hello to all.

Background.

While growing up I concluded that everyone learned how to be the gender that corresponded with the body. What came naturally to me was, apparently, "wrong" but I didn't agree with that. I've always tended to decide what is right for me.

Life hasn't always been good as a result but it was my choice to be myself as far as was possible at any given time. Eventually, recently, I did relate to something in the media and realised that I had been following my gender identity's directions all my life. It was good to learn something that confirmed what I had vaguely thought.

I have an understanding SO. If I was younger this would be a liberating discovery but I'm not so it's more of a Pandora's box with the lid off for us right now.  At least I know I was right and my discovery explains much that never made sense before.

 Theo,

Hello Janet,

Thanks for pointing to the site links to read. I've been having a good read round to get the feel of the boards. I'm another one from the Uk so there are a few words I don't know but I'll catch up.
