Hello! So.. I just found this site today and have been looking around for a few hours when I decided I should make an account and the email said I should introduce myself so here I am.

So.. I'm Amelia. I'm 19 years old and am currently going to Devry for a degree in Game and Simulation Programming (GSP).

At first I wasn't sure if the way I felt was right or if I was too young but a few months ago I saw an article about a girl named Kim in Germany who start her ... Journey? at 12 and I was really inspired by it.

This is actually the first time I've ever told anyone.

I think my parents would be okay with it. Since I've never had a boyfriend or girlfriend my mom thought I might be gay and has told me numerous times that it was okay if I was. I would hope that still holds true to this situation as well.

All of my friends seem pretty excepting of people. I'd like to talk to my best friend Chris about this if I can get up enough nerve when he comes back from basic training.

Umm... I guess a little about what I like now... Hmm...I like playing computer games and... watching anime. I also Tabletop Role Playing Game with a group of my friends (Female characters of course :D )

So.. I guess that's all I have to say for now. Thanks all for listening!

Hello Amelia!

Welcome to the Playground!

How about some nice hot chocolate and some cookies while we talk....OK?

The fire feels good, don't it?..I sure like it....and I think you'll like it here with us..it's a place where you can be yourself and no one will be mean and you'll be safe because we keep it that way!

So...going to learn simulation game making?....Good...

Because I LOVE Microsoft Flight Simulator and there won't be any more out so I need you to get after that...OK?

Well...enjoy yourself and just wait a bit and some of the others will be here to say "HI".

Thanks for joining!

Welcome to LAURA's

Yeaaaaaaaaa

You have just found a great place to be. Two of my good friends have already said hello and a big bunch of others should be here soooooon.

Lotta people JUST like you here - and a lot about your age, and they can help you discover more about yourself. You DO need to tell your parents, Be careful in telling too many others at first until you see what is going on, gender dysphoria is complicated.

So WELCOME WELCOME WELCOME

Hi Amelia, welcome to the forums.

19 is not too young, definitely, though it's still a good thing to transition early and 19 is pretty early in North America (Thailand kathoey transition younger, but are literally culturally encouraged to do it).

My parents also thought I might be gay. Until I came out actually. I came out 4 years ago. I transitioned 3 years ago.

I also like anime, computer, console and tabletop games.

I'm playing a tabletop with a friend and his housemate and some of his other friends.

I'm playing this petite girl healer-type character who has much of my child persona's traits. And a very cute pony (I joked to my friend's housemate that my pony was prettier than his horse, we rolled dices, and it turns out my pony IS prettier :P) to boot. She is only 4'6" and 65 lbs. 16 years old but appears 9 (and ages 1 year per 25 years). It's not D&D, I'm not sure of the game name.

That sounds fun, The game I play is called "Exalted".

I play a fairly creepy looking (blood red hair with jagged teeth) "necrosurgeon" (Like necromancers but more scientific) named Riina, I even resurrected myself a daughter <3

Even tho she's a necrosurgeon I try to be nice to people. Being mean gets you in trouble excessively fast in exalted.

      Thanks Davie! And don’t worry, I didn’t take it that way. It’s just such a big topic I can only hope to tackle it one bit at a time.

      This is not uncommon.  I started out going to the therapist in androgynous clothing: from the women's department, but plausibly masculine.  What made it easier was when I started going to a trans peer support group.  Most of the people there were presenting fully feminine, so I looked out of place in my androgynous clothing.  The peer pressure made it easier to dress in skirts.   I started out changing in a gender-neutral bathroom near the meeting room.  But I soon started wearing skirts in the car to and from the meetings.   Yes, it was nerve-wracking at first, but I soon realized that no one was looking and no one cared.    You can do this.

      In my last session my therapist is starting to suggest that I need to start exploring my gender identity in a more tangible way through wearing feminine clothing at least during sessions.  I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around her seeing me actually en femme.   I love and trust her, but the thought of being visibly feminine is scaring (and thrilling) me.  Is this a common thing in gender therapy?  How do I get past the fear?  More importantly, what should I wear?

      USA doctors denounce Cass Report, support trans folks.  The Endocrine Society And American Academy Of Pediatrics Respond To Cass, Reject Bans. In recent weeks, the Cass Review out of the United Kingdom has been used to argue for bans on care. The Endocrine Society and American Academy of Pediatrics respond, rejecting such arguments. —Erin Reed https://www.erininthemorning.com/p/endocrine-society-and-american-academy?publication_id=994764&post_id=144592467&isFreemail=true&r=rebf4&triedRedirect=true

      Congratulations on your new family member!

      I felt the urge to date and felt just like a teenager again. I have recorded my journal titled Ashley's Life From Start to Present. I was very moody and agitated and happy. I think it was my body's way of being in shock. After about two months it got better. Remember that you aren't the only one transitioning because your wife is too. Consider yourself lucky because I lost mine because of it and so have many others. Just enjoy the ride.

      I'm sorry for asking so many questions about your situation. I'm in your camp and believe you should be able to be whoever you feel you need to be. I guess it the Union Shop Stewart coming out in me. I want you to be treated fairly as well as respectably. You're human, you're a client of theirs. Especially if you're paying money to be there.   Hugs,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      I'm not sure the time frame.

      Views, terminology, and aspects of how events came to be....aren't those directly related to the news item?  If not, I'm rather confused.
