Hi y’all! Molly here!

[SharkGirl98]

Hi y’all! I’m Molly! I’m a 20 year old trans woman who currently lives in rural Texas. I love sharks, video games, reading, and writing. My datemate and I are hoping to move to Rhode Island by Christmas this year. 

 

I hope y’all don’t mind me doing a get-to-know you question. What is your favorite type of Shark?

[DeeDee]

Pleased to meet you Molly, I'm with you on the video games and reading... My favourite sharks are all on screen. Bruce from finding Nemo would be my fave  

[SaraAW]

Hi Molly and welcome to the forums. My favorite shark would have to be the goblin shark. It’s not a looker, but has adapted amazingly for its environment.

Greetings Molly and welcome.  Quite a change, Texas to Rhode Island.  What's the occasion, school?  

 

I like Mako because they are sleek and fast but the Great White is awesome for its size and strength.  

 

Please join in the conversation!

Hi Molly,

Welcome to TransPulse. I'm glad you're here!

 

My favorite shark is any one that doesn't eat me! I did have a Silver Shark in an aquarium once.

 

Lots of love and a big welcome hug,

Timber Wolf?

Welcome, Molly! The Nurse Shark, because I'm a nurse.  I found a fossilized shark tooth at the beach when I was teenager, and I keep it in my jewelry box. Have you ever seen one like this? Do you have some shark tooth jewelry?

Howdy Jani! Sorry for the late reply. We've decided to stay in Texas, but move to Austin. To be honest, I'm a bit scared of transitioning in this state. As a redneck who grew up in an extremely traditional southern family (think shooting by 3, being giving firearms for holidays), I've seen just how hateful and violent this state can be to trans folks.

[Charlize]

Welcome Molly.  I've heard Austin is a great place.  Just please do be careful.

Glad you've joined us.

 

Hugs,

 

Charlize

Hi Molly, welcome ?

 

Sharks are not really a big subject over here as we see few except for those on TV, but with my liking for dogs I look upon the dogfish with affection (even though it obviously has nothing to do with dogs lol). I also find the Hammer Head Shark interesting, particularly with its electrical field sensing.

Hi! I live in San Diego , and used to virtually live at the beach growing up. My parents dropped me and I friend off at La Jolla Shores early , and pick us up later in the day. I have seen sharks close up at the beach , to kinda close at Sea World. 

From time to time, hundreds of Leopard Sharks swarm La Jolla Shores as close as the shore line. Google “Hundreds of sharks swarm La Jolla shores. One day we heard about it after we arrived, and heard that Leopard sharks do not attack people, and that we were allowed to go in. Most people didn’t go in, and they certainly didn’t go boogie boarding like we did that day. It was the coolest thing ever. There definitely were hundreds, and they swam right past us, and we even swooshed past them when we caught some waves. Very fun and surreal. Apparently, they come in for schools of fish that swim close to the shoreline, and the water was warm too. Occasionally, a freak white will pass by, but they do not come that close, or the lifeguards would have warned everyone. For this reason, I pick Leopard shards, although I do like the whitetip sharks because they look kinda cool, and they also hang out at the kelp beds across the way at “The Cove.”

Hello!  I guess for favorite shark I'll go with Mako, because they share the same name as the voice actor for Aku and Uncle Iroh.

I think it’s called a thrasher shark? All I know it it’s got that giant top half of the back fin. They look like something out of an alien movie or something. Welcome to the forums!

Welcome to the Forums, Molly.  I hope you find the answers to whatever questions you have, and not just about sharks.  On that subject, though, I like whale sharks, because they seem like really gentle creatures and are in great need of protection.

Hi Molly, good to meet you. Gotta say, I winced when I read you're in Texas. That is not an easy state to live in when your LBGT from what I've heard. Good luck with your goal to move north.

I was born and raised in Florida. I have a great respect for sharks. I had the privilege of diving with schools of sharks in Galapagos as a teenager. My favorite is the same as Carolyn's--the whale shark. I think it's incredible they get so big by eating plankton.

Molly,

 

My father owned a 19' cabin cruiser when I was in my teens.  We took a trip to Santa Catalina Island (Southern California) one day, and on the return trip there was this huge thresher breaching for no apparent reason.  Just as the boat pass over it came completely out of the water, and I was standing in the aft part of the boat watching.  It was so beautiful, and it seemed as big as the boat, though I am sure it was not.  So, that has to be my fav.
