Hey all!

After letting this account sit waaaay too long... Finally got the courage to post.

I'm Damien. I'm an FtM but I haven't begun transitioning yet (much to my utter dismay).

I can't really think of how to say it, but I guess I've always known I was trans. It never felt right having a female body, and until middle school I tried to ignore these feelings. Long story short, denying what I am only hurt myself more... Ended up trying to commit suicide at the start of sixth grade... I realized something had to change.

Things did change since then... I came out to my friends and boyfriend and was surprised to find acceptance and love...But still, these past few years have been the hard for me, and I finally just broke down and realize I had to talk to people who feel the way I do.

So yeah, other stuff about me. I love animals and I'm in college right now studying to be a vet assistant! ^_^

Nice to meet you all!

Hello Melodium (or would you rather be called Damien?)

welcome to the forums, more of the men should be by to say hello. A vet assistant? That's really cool, that was something I wanted to do until I realized that with my luck I might hurt something

I'm going to be a forensic anthropologist.

Don't be afriad to share your thoughts here,beveryone is extremely understanding and caring of each other. See you around. :)

Hi Damien! I am the mother of a FtM who came out to me just a few weeks ago, but when I listen to him and read his blog, I realize how "together" he is and how much we have to learn from him! You will do just fine---keep yourself in touch with people who make you feel good about yourself and your decisions! All the best and welcome to Laura's!

      PM any or several of the Moderators or Administrators if you want to have something changed due to spelling errors, or if you simply want to have an entire post deleted.  We do not allow members to edit their own posts since there are some items we restrict from being posted.  Those things are in the Community Rules and if a Staff member has removed something because of the rules we do not want it coming back.  https://www.transgenderpulse.com/community-rules/   Use the PM system to contact us and include a link to the post you want changed.

      you're welcome. I tagged one for you and hopefully will respond soon.

      No only moderators and admin can edit and delete posts.
    • Ashley0616
      Do I ever feel? There isn't a single minute that goes by that I feel that way. I have such a strong hate for what I have that there isn't a word out there for it.
    • Ladypcnj
      Are members allowed to edit or delete their post? I can't delete or remove my post if there are misspelled words.

      I already tried that. Either too old like 60's and 70's or married. Not many people who would want to date a trans woman in dead red Mississippi. Maybe once things calm down just get a Mustang GT and just give up on it. Both are going to bring joy and pain. At least I could learn and share my love of cars with my kids when they get that old. I wouldn't even know what to do if someone said they wanted me. I would've already been thinking in my mind they are just going to ghost me so what's the point. I just don't know what to do anymore. I tried putting myself out there online and out in person. I haven't tried a bar yet although that's probably a bad idea. Maybe just to experience it again. I haven't been to one since 2013. The only problem I see is I'm not a night owl for sure. I go to bed at 8-830. My expectations were just that I wouldn't get rejected last. I have been able to handle a good bit of it but this one really hurt. I guess that's what happens when you have some hopes and expectations. It's not like I have another friend IRL to talk about this. She is my only one. I wished I didn't put myself out there.

      As one who had to deal with the Porn/Adult Entertainment business as commercial, taxpaying businesses on a professional level, I can say that they are in it for money and the highest percentage of their income comes from ultra conservative areas where adequate Medical and Mental Health Profession and University Science instruction on Trans issues are banned.    It makes me wonder how much porn literature is hidden behind the 13 Bibles and Bible Study guides on some people's family bookshelves.

      Do you ever feel trapped in a body that doesn't feel like yours?

      There's the old thing of getting out and getting involved in things in the community and meeting people that way. Does your church have a food pantry? Does it have service opportunities you could plug into otherwise? You might run into someone that way. 
    • Ashley0616
      Well that didn't go well. She said she is intentionally single. When will I just stop thinking about putting myself out there. It really hurt but rejection and getting ghosted is just my second language apparently. The one person I have told all my dark secrets and didn't run off. At least we are friends. I'm happy only when I'm sleeping and that is it because things actually go my way from time to time. Just another wonderful day of me. SMDH!
    • Abigail Genevieve
      In their minds, yes, unless it is clearly, consistently, forcefully articulated by those who represent trans people that we are not.  I'm not sure who that would be.

      So, this proves that we're all  pedophiles? I suspect that the majority of pedophiles are probably cis.   Yeah, Alexander the Great was probably queer.  What does this have to do with me needing to pee?   I am so tired of this ___.  I raised 8 kids and never molested any of them - unless you count changing diapers without closing my eyes.  Yeah… so tired.   It makes me wonder what is actually on these people's minds.
