Hi, as you can tell by my username my name is Rob, or Robert. I am a trans male looking for support. I was recommended to this website by a friend on another forums website. Not much to tell about me except it is debilitating living in the closet and a family member of mine would probably harass me for discovering I am transgender due to the fact they came out way before me. I also struggle with other issues that I won't mention for privacy purposes. I like music and movies. Not much to tell about me except that I'm glad I joined this website for support and I hope it can benefit me. Thanks for reading.

Welcome Rob.  This site was important for me.  Finding that I wasn’t alone in an environment of non judgemental acceptance certainly has helped me get through rough times.

Try to relax and enjoy.

 

Hugs

Hi Rob and welcome! This forum is full of friendly, supportive folks, who helped me a lot through my trans experiences and transition. 

 

For what it's worth, I've seen a number of articles about multiple family members being transgendered. I can't help if there is a genetic factor to these 'coincidences'.

 

Also, I can't speak for you, but perhaps the family member of yours who came out inspired courage in you to realize aspects of your own identity? 

 

Again welcome. Feel at ease to post and inquire here, it's a great supportive community.

Hello Toni,  perhaps subconsciously it could have helped but after reading more and watching videos and movies about transgender-ism it helped me realize my identity. Thanks for the reply, it means a lot. :)

Hello Rob and welcome!  Please join in the conversation.  As to your trans family member, I wouldn't be concerned.  We are all individuals.  We live our lives and do things on our own timeline.  I sure they did as well.  

 

Cheers, Jani

Hi Rob! Welcome!

I'm pretty new here myself. Lots to read and learn here. Very good support from caring people who have very likely trod the exact same path you're on.

      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.
