I would like to introduce myself, I am LyndseyQ a genderqueer asexual person. This is all so new for me. I have felt fear, shame and embarrassment. My journey began with a very abusive marriage mainly emotionally and some sexually. Last year I had kidney surgery that left me in intensive care on a ventilator and a catheter.  This left me incontinent for months, in severe pain and this is what made me hate my body (specifically my genitals) especially after my abusive marriage. I am coming to terms with my newfound lack of sexuality. Try as I might I have little to no desire for a sexual relationship. I am hoping to find clarity by participating in this forum. Do I fall under the trans umbrella? I was suggested to join as I figure out who I am. Thanks!

Welcome to the Forums, a general maxim that we have here is that if you have ANY questions about your gender, then you are NOT Cis gender.  That alone makes you one of the people who can and do get the best from these Forums.  Somewhere in all of these topics we have is going to be one from a person very much like yourself.  Sometimes it does take medical interruptions to our lives to get us on the right path and that is just fine.

Welcome to the forums, Lyndsey! You'll find lots of information and many, many helpful people here. Poke around, ask questions and join in discussions if you are comfortable doing so. Many of us have found working with a gender therapist to be especially helpful in understanding our identity and finding our path forward. Perhaps that's an option for you, as well.

 

In any case, welcome!!

Vicky and April,

 

Thank you for such a kind welcome. This makes me feel less alone on this journey. I hope this helps me find who I am. 

 

Thanks,

You ARE NOT alone, Lyndsey. It's a common feeling for many of us but just know that you've found a community of people who care about you and are here for you. We all need a shoulder to cry on, a smile, a laugh, some encouragement...and sometimes a gentle nudge. 🙂

      Do you use make-up? If so, why and what types?

      Hi Sally, okay I'll head on over to your post and check out your makeup techniques.

      Hey all,   It's been a while, but I blogged a whole series on makeup.  It's an eight-part series where I talk about my techniques.   Here is the link to Part 1:       Hopefully the blog series is helpful.

      Oh, I can relate to that one Vicky, leaving lipstick in hot weather  I've lost count how many times I had to purchase new purses.

      Thanks for the replies, as an admin from my own group I understand the same rules, agreed.

      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.

      Sort of a Lousy Introduction

      By Abigail Genevieve · Posted

      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.

      Question

      By VickySGV · Posted

      @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?

      What do you think is the biggest block to LGBTQ+ acceptance?

      By kristinabee · Posted

      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.
