Hi!

[Guest Jenny4]

So, I've had this account for a while, and I finally decided to say hi to all you.

soo, about me: I prefer to be called Jenny. I live in the east-northeast part of Ohio, I'm a 14-year old genetic male, but I'm sure that I should've been born female.

I've been sure of that since the age of six, when I was in first grade, and all of the playing and such was divided between the two sexes.

I'm currently not out to anyone, so don't tell anybody ok?

Well, I'm not sure what else there is to say, so... hi!

Why hello. No - we don't tell anyone what goes on here - but it is accessible to guests so don't put out too much information. It seems you belong here - it's called a gender dysphoria condition, and its not fatal - GRIN!

But you need to eventually work in therapy with an expert - although at your age it is difficult to do anything without the involvement of your parents - so that could be a problem.

In any case - just stay with us - two big reasons

(1) Its a safe place here - we moderate it to keep out the bad guys

(2) You need to know you are not alone

So please look around. And be sure to go into the 'teen' forum - its full of good advice! Smart people in your generatioN!

And if it helps - I too knew I was really a girl from about age 3 1/2 - its a complicated world!

So

WELCOME WELCOME WELCOME

Hello Jenny,

Well you have been greeted properly by two of my favorite sisters (don't ask which one is my most favorite because we don't want to start any hair pulling incidents )

I am so glad you decided to post an introduction it is much easier to talk when you are inside instead of looking through the window.

Love ya,

Sally

Welcome to the Playground, Jenny!

I know you will find this site useful, for many reasons. We have important resources to help you figure things out and guide you, we have good, supportive

and friendly members and staff, and we have a lot of forums to post your questions and comments. You can be yourself here and not fear being hurt

or judged. Our goal is to support our members in every way we can.

Please look around, especially in the Teen Forum and the Chat Rooms. The Chat is a great place to hang out and meet people, but requires a separate

registration.

I hope you like it here. Relax and enjoy, and post your questions.

Welcome to Laura's Playground.

Please feel free to come over and chat sometime.

The Chat room does require another registration that is separate from from your forums one.

Please read the chat room rules before coming in, and expect a short interview with one of the chat room moderators.

One of the things that they will ask you is if you read the rules.

We have MTF meetings-Mon & Sat 9pm est, and Teens meetings -Sat 1pm est & Sunday 8pm est and you are welcome to attend.

We all look forward to seeing you.
