G'day all.

I guess I should start with my age, I'm 25, and thoroughly confused. I have for many years repressed what I've felt about myself, and tried to live a "Normal" male existence. But after a failed relationship, I've had to come to the conclusion that I need to finally deal with my image issues. I guess part of my biggest problem was that until I found this site a few days ago, I'd always just figured I was a sexual deviant, but after reading information on Autogynophillia I've finally been able to understand myself much better.

Anyway, I guess I've felt since I was very young that deep down I want to be a Girl. But when I started to go through puberty, well things got complicated, and I decided to push the thoughts as deep as they would go. And over the years I started to realise just how badly people view transsexuals, and pushed everything even deeper. After having a relationship with a girl I love very much, things became even stranger for me. I guess part of it is 18+, and unsuitable here.

Anyway, thanks for reading,

December.

heya, I'm 22, and I had the saaaame issues as you. I would say that you should try to venture around and see if it's really right for you. Gender therapist is probably a right place to go at the moment :)

I had the same issues when i was your age and at 51 years old and I am still having them.

Yes i felled in love when i just got out of school. Of course it went south and sour.

But(Behold untimate thruth) there was this aching inside me that was allways there prior before when i was even in jr high school.

I realted to the girls than the guys and the things they did .I had no interested in organized sports . i tried at little league and i sucked I was interested in music and art and etc.

I cant cook so that a minus on the girly stuff from my days.

so hang in there...

Thanks everyone, I feel so welcome here.

I will be seeking professional help in the new year, it's just finding a GP (general practitioner, don't know what the US would call them) I feel comfortable talking to in order to get a referral letter.

I must admit a lot of my confusion has cleared over the last month or so. I'm one of those people that think everything through thoroughly before I make decisions. So after spending a lot of time thinking and talking with my closest friend, and reading many of the posts here and on other websites, most of my confusion has just disappeared.

Thanks for the warm Welcome.

Hello again!

Finally come back after a long time of hiding from both myself, and the entire world. Have been kind of ducking in to lurk, but not too much. Hopefully feeling much better now, so decided to stick my head back in...

Welcome back, have you found a gender therapist yet. You really need one so that you can eventually get your SRS letter if you plan on going that far. My surgeon required two years of therapy before they would se me for SRS. I do hope you are finding Laura's a useful source of information in your transition and if toy need any help please feel free to ask, that's what were here for. Take your time finding yourself though, it's the best way to make sure you've made the correct choice for your life and future.

Take care of yourself

ARGH! Life sucks!

Long story short, I was made homeless, and now, I have to also look for a new job... Just as I was getting everything sort of sorted in my life!

Somedays I just wish I didn't have to get out of bed.

      Funny how when i read the topic name i thought you were asking about the study of plants and animals.  I'm a bit into that as a farmer at va time when a cell phone makes plant  for insect identification easier than it has ever been.    Now on to your topic.  I don't farm in the nude.  I have wondered at whether i would skinny dip as i did as a kid without thought of how my body might affect others.  The effects of hormones makes me different from the average person and perhaps i'm "neither fish nor fowl".  I would certainly depend on who my fellow passengers on that cruise would be.   Hugs,   Charlize

      This is also a relatively small forum and it can take a long time, seemingly, for someone to get around to replying to a post.

      I am also pretty sure that several of them are folks who are "trans curious".  Sometimes folks who are trying to find their own identity, are attracted to trans folks or who are simply interested in the trans community.   There may also be some who wish to do us harm which is why ......... I've just learned to smile figuring "i'm on candid camera".   I'm sure many of our younger members never experienced that show so my age is showing.   Hugs,   Charlize

      Most of those "guests" are web bots from China, Indonesia, France etc. looking us over. They are mostly benign.  All they can see or gain access to are the general forums.  Members should be careful not to post anything that could readily identify themselves such as real names, addresses, phone numbers, etc. They do not have access to our gallery, blogs or private messenger. They seem to haunt all forums. Not just us. I should add that they can make us known across the internet. That's how prospective members find us. Google would be a good example.

      I hope he gets what he deserves.

      Heck I didn't even know they could go up that high! I just have a four burner and one to keep stuff warm. What kind of pies did you make?

      That's all the matters.   Well me and the wife rode to Perkins for breakfast. As we were waiting for our food. Being it is Sunday There are a few gentleman in suits, my guess from church. I think to myself. I hope I never have to wear one of those monkey suits ever again. Now a nice dress maybe.   Hugs,   Kymmie

      From time to time I've looked at 'Who Is Online" and I have consistently noticed that members are ALWAYS outnumbered by Guests by a wide margin, sometimes, like a minute ago, by more than a 10:1 margin.  I have never seen that before on an internet forum.  It can be explained partly by the nature of what this is, that it draws the curious and they are certainly welcome to read here, and to join, but it leaves me with a feeling of being in a fishbowl.  I wonder who ARE these people?  Donald Trump, is that you? Biden? Sinwar? Putin?  We can only guess.

      So from time to time my brain gets a hold of information and puts it together with other information in weird way that get me thinking. I was reading about a nudes cruise that they are running out if Miami. It got me thinking that a transgendered person who is also a naturalist, has to be one of the most unlucky people alive. How does one manage that and does that ever come up? Not trying to make fun here, just genuinely curious. Things that make you go hmmmm....

      No luck there, really. She's getting a signing bonus plus a little extra that I don't think would cover much in the way of the move, but it is something!   Oh my! I am glad to hear you're not passing anymore blood. I hope they figure it out soon! How distressing!   @April Marie @KymmieL @Mirrabooka @Willow @Justine76, thank you for the kind words and thoughts! We told our best friends last night. There were many tears. Now it's all about the work: selling the house (my wife's friend's son said he may want to buy it direct!), a job (a former employee of mine wants to bring me over to his company--and they're based outside of Tacoma!), and moving (just started going through what we don't want bring and donating things). So things have kicked off.   I'm not so sure of the job, it would be good to work with my former employee (he's great) but I fear the culture may not be super welcoming to someone like me--and the guy doesn't know I'm trans in any way. But I'll give it a shot as my authentic self and see what happens!

      @LadypcnjI'm sorry. I know the feeling my mom thinks I'm going through a phase too although I didn't come out till April 17, 2023, so it was later in life. I was in denial majority of my life. I would love to hear more about this if you are comfortable sharing more of it.

      I love fashion. I have over 100 dresses and 74 pairs of shoes. My walk-in closet is full of other clothes as well. I'm getting more shorts soon. SHEIN is awesome for quality and price. Just when you get a leather coat from them it's just the shell not the liner. Most of my shoes are from Torrid because I wear size 13 women's.
