Hi Everyone,

I am MTF who is in my 20's. I have known that something was wrong with me since my earliest memories. I have tried to live out my life as a 'normal male', but have failed. I was married for 2 years before I got divorced. I am happy that I have found Lauras-Playground.

Well we are glad to say 'Hi' right back to you!

You have found a great place - we come and read and chat and just get to be ourselves.

We also offer support, comfort, advice and a sympathetic ear.

Come on in and sit by the fire, there's a nice comfy chair over there that no one is using right now. :)

Have some hot coco and I baked some cookies, take as many as you like - virtual foods have no calories! :D

I'll look around for some mini marshmallows, Donna Jean doesn't always straighten the cart after she greets someone. :lol:

You'll be meeting her and a lot of other great people very shortly - it's early and some of us are on our way to church.

Love ya,

Sally

Hi Danielle welcome to Laura's. Let me welcome you to the food cart and the hot beverage cafe. First thing I would like to point out is that there is nothing "wrong" with you. As Sally says you are just fine, you are Gender Gifted a true blessing to us all. So you have found a comftorable place to take off your shoes and converse with your new brothers and sisters, exhale and start typing.

Sorry about your divorce if you would like to talk about that please do,,,,,,,,,,,,Once again welcome to the forum,,,,,,,,,Mia.

Mia 1,

Thank you for your warm welcome. It would be good to talk about my divorce sometime. It really is good to know that I have one big family that I can call my own, because once I 'out' myself to my family, I really don't know if I will be accepted by them, accepted for who I really am. :(

I have already started to use the chat room :D .

Danielle,

I am going through a divorce right now myself and I would love to talk to you about it! Maybe we can comfort each other because I don't understand the whole process!

Love ya,

Sally

Mia beat me to it

There's nothing "wrong" with you

also what's this "normal" I keep hearing about (and saying myself sometimes)

it helps to realize that there is no normal

there just is

sorry about the divorce

Yeaa - you found us! WELCOME WELCOME WELCOME

You may have just come home. :P

Yep - me too - confessed to my middle wife - zap - she was gone! My current sweety-pie? She seems to be staying.

Its a diffucult thing to be transsexual. But we all know what you know (well mostly) and are like you are (well sorta) There are also a bunch here FTM, androgynous, cross dressers, intersex an so on. Diversity abounds, Look around and post all about what you see. Ask questions. And Laura's is especially good to visit when you get down or have an impossible problem

WELCOME WELCOME WELCOME :lol::lol::lol:

Hi Danielle...Normal? I was reminded of it just today on TV...it's a city in Il...a couple got married in the Taco Bell there 011109 and refreshments were straight off the menu...no kidding REALLY :blink: additionally the city next door is as close to Normal as it gets <<ouch>> I need a new writer argh...welcome to Laura's...I'm late as usual for the line-up...the Unusual Suspects are all here already...they are really a fun bunch and very sensitive as well. It's been a veeeery long time for my divorce but it darn near crushed me. One thing I might offer is to maintain the 'high ground'...own the adult half if things start going bad...hopefully it won't but I've never heard of an uncontested divorce. By doing that after the initial flurry of gabbage things became far more civil than they would have been doubtless. Hope that helps a little sweetie...I have some extra snicker doodles I'll share...I tend to wander off and need a little sweetness. Huginahug, Kelly Ann

Welcome to our little slice of crazy heaven Danielle (sorry it is late). I see you have already been greeted by some of the greats here and found out that they truly are wonderful and understanding people here. Glad to have you in our wonderful insane little family here (watch out for Liz, Sally and Kelly Ann they can get a little hyper at times :P .... love you ladies).

As was said "it isn't easy being trans" but sure can be fun (and Kermit only had to worry about being green ... lol :lol: ).

      We have been asked to bring the following to the attention of our members. Please note that you would need to send an email to receive the actual survey link.   Seeking Interview Participants for Research Study on Digital Spaces of Transgender Belonging What is the Study About? Over the past several decades, the Internet has fundamentally changed how trans people form community spaces, explore gender identity, and practice community care. My dissertation will evaluate trans people's relationships to digital trans spaces, and I am conducting interviews as part of this research study. Who Qualifies? To qualify for this study, you must: • Be 18 years of age or older, • Identify as transgender or otherwise gender nonconforming (such as, but not limited to, nonbinary, genderqueer, genderfluid, agender, or Two-Spirit), • Have sought out online transgender resources or communities, AND • Currently live in the United States. What Does It Involve? A brief (five minute) screening survey, later followed by a virtual interview lasting approximately one hour. You will receive $75 after participating in an interview as compensation for your time. Your participation in this interview is completely voluntary. If you choose to participate, you will be asked to reflect on your history with trans online communities and resources. Data Usage and Confidentiality Policy This research study is being conducted as part of a Ph.D. dissertation, which will be published. Raw or identifiable data, including interview transcripts and recordings, will not be made publicly available. Analysis from this study may be presented publicly or included in future publications. Further, your confidentiality will be respected during this study. The data collected for the study will be de-identified prior to any analysis, publication, or report resulting from the study. Identifying documents, such as consent forms, will be stored separately from all other data on a password-protected computer. If you are selected for an interview, we will review these policies and your rights in greater detail. Interested in participating? Email [email protected] to receive a link to the screening survey. Want to learn more about the study? Visit the study's website at: https://sites.google.com/view/transdigitalstudy/about-the-dissertation Lead Researcher: Theodore Davenport (he/they), Ph.D. Candidate at the Department of Geography, University of Washington.

      This will head for a court case and the notable fact that the people opposing puberty blockers is that they have not revealed their source and its competence.  It will be present the evidence and let your "experts" sit on the grill above the hot coals.

      Pretty typical for many nations.... corrupt police, and only great effort by the victim's family will eventually yield prosecution.  Conviction is uncertain, and sentencing even more so.

      Welcome to Trans Pulse, Bobbi.  It's nice to meet you.  I remember well all the emotions you mentioned upon starting on this journey, about 15 years ago now.  It's an exciting, albeit scary time, and there will be many questions and decisions along the way.  Any way we can help, all you need to do is ask.  We'll be here for you.   HUGS   Carolyn Marie

      Everyone is their own person and has their own way of operating in the world. Being “enough” isn’t for anyone to judge, outside of maybe our closest loved ones, and definitely not those that are trying to measure themselves high by cutting others down. They know I wouldn’t succeed for very long—or at all—keeping my life bifurcated as you, but I am happy you are content with where you’re at with yourself.

      My kids are grown now.  I realize I don't know the half of what they did.  But my parents didn't know the half of what I did either.  It's just how it works.   You kinda know, but please spare me the details.

      @MaeBe, Good luck and best wishes on the new start in the Great Northwest. I don’t know a parent that didn’t call out their kids for being drunk or high as rebellious teenagers. I just told my teens that they can’t kid a kidder, and I was a teenager early 1970s we could drink legally at 18 so I have tons of experience spotting drunk kids.    As for the poetry, I liked it.  We never have enough support bras or tee shirts in the rotation.    Hugs,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      Oh my @KymmieL, I’m sorry you’re on the job hunt again. They didn’t seem to be a good fit for you anyway. You deserve to be treated fairly and not undermined by competing owners who don’t communicate well.    Hugs,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋
