Hello all, 

 

My name is Liza. I come from a small, conservative town where peers are hard to find and harder to connect with.

My bio lists some of my interests and whatnot, so I'll save the long-winded autobiography for another time. For now, I simply want to introduce myself and say thank you for being here!

Welcome Liz.  

Jump right in dear.  Even if you can't express yourself as you wish in your home town you are amongst friends and like minds here.

 

Hugs,

 

Charlize

Hi, Liza!!! Welcome to the forums!! You'll find so many wonderfully helpful people here. I'm in a similar situation where the trans community is non-existent...or at least very hidden...and the people here have been amazing accepting. Wander around, ask whatever questions you may have and jump in wherever you feel comfortable doing so.

Hi! Welcome you have come to the right place. Ferrets huh? I have never owned one but my oldest sister did. I remember them being very playful but also likes to hide. I do remember the stench. She even had Her's dissented.

@Liz-Liz Hi Liza and Welcome!

I agree with what you wrote on your Profile page ... "There is so much more to me than my gender identity ..."


I feel the same way. But also, I feel we cannot be our complete selves without being our true self.  When I found this Forum and the wonderful people here, and their stories (and then therapy) it helped to finally open my life to the possibility of True Self. 

 

I hope you discover the same, and I am happy you found this special virtual community where you can be yourself, and we can share our unique but common stories, experiences, and encouragement.  Welcome, again❣️

Hi Liza, welcome. As an Australian who has rarely seen snow I am fascinated to see you live in Alaska. I certainly don’t envy you the small conservative town though. Thank heavens for the internet, huh?

      Isn't it illegal to be examining people's genitals without their consent?    Could've sworn that was some sort of law already.

      Hi Vidanjali, both of my parents had pasted on in their lifetimes.

      Oddly i often feel i pass but then bump into someone who reads my past attempts at maleness.    Last week at the market a man spoke me as i went back to my car.  I heard "You are beautiful"!  Odd!!!!!  Then he said something about marriage and i started to get worried.  Turned out he is married to a trans woman.  He was sweet and probably is tuned to trans folks but it was a bit disquieting.     Hugs,   Charlize

      I decided to power wash our back porch and the porch furniture so the uniform of the day is a skort, t-shirt over a sports bra and flip flops with my hair pulled back into a ponytail.

      It's been touched on in another thread, the perception that the folks who scream loudest in favor of free speech are also the loudest in wanting to stifle the freedom of people not like themselves.

      I wonder if the LGBTQI+ umbrella should be split? Create separate entities for LGB and TQI+ folk?    I have no doubt that some cis het people probably think that sexuality and gender identity are the same thing, for whatever the reason, not necessarily willful ignorance. It would be natural for such people to observe that both LGB and T folk are under the same umbrella, so they must be the same, right?   Just as (and I know I'm making some pretty big assumptions in this post) some cis gay folk would think that the LBGTQI+ umbrella is pie - give trans people a slice, and somehow, they will miss out. Just like cis het folk might also think that their lives are somehow being diminished by allowing trans people to have basic human rights.

      Some anxiety is building up inside.

      Suppressing your emotions because you’re afraid of them can be bad for your physical and mental health. Here’s what to do instead. When a toddler feels a “big” emotion, like anger or sadness, they tend to have a big tantrum on the floor. And these tantrums can be a lot to observe, full of thrashing, screaming, and tears. But a child reacts like this because the emotion they’re feeling is uncomfortable, maybe even painful.   Of course, as adults, we feel emotions too, and those feelings can be just as overwhelming, uncomfortable, or even painful as they were when we were children, even if we don’t let ourselves react in such a big way. But, sometimes, in our attempts to not give in to our emotions, we go too far: we run from them or suppress them — even if that harms us in the long run. Although there are many reasons we might suppress our emotions, one of them is that we are afraid of our emotions. Fear of emotions is called “animotophobia. It is not an official term in the DSM-5-TR. Still, fearing your emotions can have a significant impact on your well-being.

      Been a while.... Do you sing or play an instrument?   I sing, write songs, play guitar, bass, harp. It is my sanctuary.
