I'm a pre-op FTM, I'm 20 and British. My parents have known everything for a while but don't accept. I'm going through a difficult time right now, feeling isolated and such. I just feel that something that may help a little would be a place that I could share things I normally keep inside, with people who should understand. So here I am :)

Hey Bernie, thank you so much for such a nice welcome. I really appreciate it, I've been feeling so alone for years but it's just becoming so much heavier on me lately. Just looking around here so far has helped so much but I look forward to meeting other people too. Everyone seems really nice :)

See you around

Hey Djay,

Just like you I am FTM and your parents are just typical. Your loniless, let it go you now have friends here at the playground who do understand exactly what your going thru we have or are going thru it too. So lets all go thru it together.

Great pizza huh? Yeah its free so are the cookies Sally does alot of baking around here ain't she great. And everyonce in while Berni will be cooking up Hot Wings and Sloppy joes and if you are real lucky Stranded cooks a mean steak.

So come on in and enjoy the stay.

Peace and Love

Hi Djay,

It's been quite a while since that pizza so you should have plenty of room for some of my double chocolate chip cookies and cold milk.

Dee Jay calls them melted chocolate with a bit of cookie crumbs, but they are so good!

I am so glad tha you are here, so don't be shy you are part of such a wonderful family now, we support and help each other and just have a good time.

Ask questions, tel us what you think and just enjoy your time here.

Welcome to the forums, Djay.

Love ya,

Sally

Hey there, djay!

I already wrote you a mega-post on your thread in the FTM forum. Well...welcome to the family! You can always be yourself here!

Oh yes... Steaks. I've got t-bones, NY strip, ribeye, and filet mignon (if you are a bit more high-brow).

I've also got this fried cheeseburger, if that's more your speed. I'm going to warn you though, it's pretty greasy.

WELCOME WELCOME WELCOME

Save those virtual 'pounds' - as soon as Donna Jean figures it out -Dollars to pounds - she might send you a virtual bill!

Look around - you have a great presentation - so POST a bunch. We always need input, especially from a Brit. Too many Canadians and Texans here!

LOL

I wonder if you could slip one of those fried cheeseburgers into an envelope - no wat a hefty bag and mail it to me - it looks good!

Not Chicken Fried but not bad.

Love ya,

Sally, if it'd keep, I wouldn't mind mailing it. We couldn't get chicken fried to work, so we made something like fish batter. Frying a cheeseburger is no small task!

Lizzy, it was quite a mess. The floor was literally slippery afterward. Ever had fried dill pickles? YUM!

I have the perfect drink for after dinner, Djay - if you have the fried cheeseburger and fried dill pickles I suggest a Phillips Screwdriver - equal parts of vodka, orange juice and Phillips Milk of Magnesia!

Love ya,

One more thing since you are British. Here is a bit of Anglo Saxon. Can you translate? Oft Scyld Scefing sceapena preatum

monegum maegpum meodo-setla ofteah

Translation:There was Shield Sheafson,scouge of many tribe

a wrecker of mead- benches, rampaging among foes.

Herew is what a healthy meal looks like cooked tonight for me and my gal oh and by the way welcome to the family

Mia, your food is pretty. My food is less pretty. It IS shiny, but that is because of the grease.

Girls, one of you warned me about the T and heart disease. 'Tis true! Believe it or not, I do eat healthy in RL...just not all the time. When I was at the grocery store today the older lady at the checkout said that my mom must be proud of me. She said that most young men my age just come in and buy junk food. I told her that I'd make a good husband for some lucky lady because I can cook. :)

      My mom has been more accepting of me being trans lately and even promised i could get a binder if i pay with my own money. The preferred name is still an issue. So far my mom, close friends and brother know i identify as trans but no one else does. I recently told mr grandparents about my partner and explaines the perferred name as a nickname they prefer to have. Luckily everyone who knows is accepting but i feel like i still have so much progress to make. Started getting more uncomfortbale being reffered to as my deadname and she/her in public. My therapist is getting me a trans pin for my birthday next time I see her. I have hop but sometimes I feel like the goal is so far. HRT and top surgery are things i know i want but there has been warnings given to me about the problems that come with it from the ones that have accepted me and I trust most. Mainly from the adults in my life that know, also been getting nervous many people dont see me as a man but i also go to an all girl school. being consistenly reffered to as women has started to get to me and have had urge on several occasions to write perferred name on paper. i dont think pereffered name can go into school system due to being catholic school and for graduation diploma we have to contact the person in charge and ask. I just need some advice on what to do, I am thank ful for the advice everyone had given me, made me feel better about future and hope that I can transition but also worry about familial ties and affect. due to most f them being born in the 80's and 90's and not taking it well originally mostly based on my moms reaction. I love my family alot but how they might react is scaring me. my mom still donesnt want them to know. I know they love me but when I eventually come out and medically trasition in several years hopefully, what will happen? there are little kids in the family and I already dont see them a lot, how would their parents react? what would they say to the kids? I know my aunt would not take it well due to political belief and warnings from cousins.

      Maybe.  But they'd probably resent being required to do it.   IDK.  You have to show ID to register already.  And you have to be registered to vote.

      Hah! Woke up the Red Scare!   I’ve never read Marx. I tend to believe in the inherent goodness in people. I let their words and deeds change that. Insisting people are immoral/less than/should not exist, stripping them (or keeping them from) human rights, is an a most basic example of true evil. What evils do LGBTQ+ people present simply existing? How does the Right justify their crusade against us? What justifies the manufactured fear and loathing they spout every day about us?

      Congrats on the new addition @Ivy I have the opposite I have 4 grandson and a granddaughter. 3 of whom are visiting this weekend. I am feeling better. I think the biggest thing is that I got some much needed sleep.   Well gotta go and speed sometime with the grandsons.   Kymmie

      I saw this concert in which it is said that the famous phrase of Jon Landau "I saw the future of rock and roll and his name is Bruce Springsteen" comes from that night. By the way Bruce opened for Bonnie Raitt that night and she was the better performer . . . just sayin'.

      Astronomy and astrophotography.  I have done a few public presentations on the subject and could most likely wing it for an hour without putting you to sleep.   On the other hand if you need a sleeping pill, I could also talk for an hour about flying and you'd be out cold.

      Please consider joining us, even if it's just for a few minutes to see what the meetings are like. I've learned so much, had so much fun and gained confidence in myself just by being a part of this amazing group of people. It's a low key, no pressure, non-judgmental chance to just be among people who are supportive, understanding and affirming of each other.    I'm travelling out of state and still planning on dropping in for awhile.    Come see what it's like!! 
    • April Marie
      Thank you, Susan!! It was such an amazing experience for me. I can't remember if I even talked about it on a Zoom meeting.   Here is the link to the post I made about it. And, again, thank you for helping to give me the courage to do it.
