Hi new here


PurpleBlue

Recommended Posts

I am new to this forum. I am from the USA. I'm 25 years old. I was assigned female at birth. I have been questioning my gender for 2 years now. I am constantly searching articles online about gender and searching Tumblr and watching videos. I am so confused and want to figure myself out. I joined this forum to talk to people like me. 

 

I live in a small town and the people are very against LGBTQ. 

There aren't many resources where I am. I have no friends in real life and I feel so lonely and isolated. 

 

I am diagnosed with depression and anxiety and auditory hallucinations (hearing voices). 

It's so difficult. 

 

I have struggled with my sexuality in the past. It was difficult. Currently I identify as bisexual. 

 

I am from a Christian family.

I am so scared of them not believing me or accepting me or hating me and not talking to me again. 

 

Sorry this post was just me venting. Hopefully we can be friends.

Hi. Im new here too. I've been reading the forums as a guest for quite some time but only a few days ago joined. Im in the same boat. Live in a rural town..... Its terrible. Anyway, this is a great place to talk for sure. I have actually learned a lot by reading these forums. Most questions I ask myself have been answered somewhere in here.

Welcome PurpleBlue.  I can only say that times are definitely changing for the better regardless of the present administration.  Simply having a space like this where we can be open and honest about our journeys can help a great deal.  I know it has helped me.  I also grew up and have lived my life in a small town where i have known everybody forever.  (I am in a more accepting state for the most part.)   I remember that feeling of desperation.  I lived it for years but eventually i've found a new more honest path.  I don't regret my life pre transition.  I did the best i could and learned a great deal.  Give yourself the gift of time and miracles can happen.

 

Hugs,

 

Charlize

      Any links posted would have to meet this criteria  All content posted or shared through TransPulse services must be appropriate for minors. We welcome members aged 13 to 18. As such, adult or pornographic content, nudity, underwear images, violence, gore, and other content not suitable for minors may not be posted anywhere to this service.

      I do spoken word acting, and give Trans 101 talks and other public speaking.  I wear make-up for those occasions.  Sephora is easy for me to get to, and has a foundation that does a good job for me and the sales folks there are Trans Friendly.  Their eye shadow pallets are also fun to use. Another source of my foundation is Ulta which carries Dermablend that does a consistent job of my lower face and chin.   I just use good old Revlon lipsticks because I ruin them by leaving my purse in the hot car too often.

      I'm not interested in makeup, jewelry or nice clothes or girly stuff.  It's made me wonder at times.   It saves some money.  If I wore a skirt it would likely  be denim.  I thought about a woman's skirt suit but nah.   Neither of my sisters are into that stuff either.  One likes peasant chic (still a 60s flower girl)  and the other - the only time she has ever worn a dress was at her wedding.  Jeans at all other times.   Jeans and t shirt here.  Content being a girl.  Weirdo. Weirda? Never mind.

      Thanks, Mindy.

      @Ladypcnj Before posting links to other group's websites, PM one of the Staff (preferably an Admin) and have them check that site out.   We have specific rules here regarding age appropriateness and would need to know that the other site is in line with those rules.  We do have members here between 13 and 18 and other sites need to be safe for that age range, legally and otherwise.  Also, we are not a dating or pick-up site, not do we allow people selling things to advertise here.  As I said clear the link with a moderator or admin before posting it.  Mod's and admins do check out posts and if we find problem links we will remove them and notify the OP of a rules violation.  Go to https://www.transgenderpulse.com/community-rules to understand where we are.

      I raise my hand in the group, I have a question and a suggestion... is it allowed to share other new lgbtq+ website links here? 
    • Ladypcnj
      Yeah, ELF is a good brand, another brand is Revlon ColorStay last 24 hours.

      Sir is good, as well as mister! I don't mind Mx. but my brain's first thought is a mixer.

      giggles..sounds much more comfy   I'm on 5 minute break outside n wondering if i can open my blouse..oops..maybe not ..laughs

      I really don't think that's a good idea. The unity of the LGB and T community is historic and has been central for both groups rights. And the vast majority of people advocating for splitting the two are transphobic LGB's who are broadly condemned by the community anyway.

      Congratulations, and best wishes as you move forward.   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      A bit late in updating, but I've had the draft of the official diagnosis and have (as yet unconfirmed) an endo consultation next month.   Next to arrive will be the supporting documentation for my new passport application for my correct gender.  This will then be my official ID for all the other updates - bank, tax, payroll etc.   It just feels good to to be proactive again rather than waiting for other people to move at a leisurely pace.

      I like ELF brand cosmetics, I can pick them up at JC Penny.    I wear makeup everyday, but mostly just very light makeup.
