I must say that even though this is an anonymous forum, I'm still terrified of posting here - maybe because it's one of the few times that I've tried to express my true self. You see, I still have yet to come to terms with who I am, so I have come here seeking advice, understanding, and conversation with those that are going, or have gone through the same thing.

I'l probably have quite a few questions, most of which will probably be ridiculous, so just bear with me please. :)

Welcome, and let me say this is the right place to come. The welcoming ladies will be by in a moment with cocoa and cookies, I'll go scare one up from the parlor.

Viewing the posts here will give you a great deal of insight as to where others are and you may identify with some of the feelings expressed here. This is a great place to taste others' viewpoints and to find your own place. All are welcome, your spot is in here somewhere.

Hey Sara,

Good morning and welcome to the forums.

I see you have your cocoa and Cookies so just sit back and relax or wander around the forums, take some cookies with you if anyone comes by while you are gone they will leave you a note.

Don't worry about your questions, the only stupid question is the one unasked.

Welcome to the family.

Love ya,

Sally

Welcome, Sara! If you've got questions, we've got answers. A lot of us were shy when we first arrived here. :)

Your "Hi y'all" subject line drew my attention because it is in my native tongue. I'm from the Palmetto State myself, though I'm not living there currently.

Thank you everybody for the warm welcome. It truly means the world to me to be among those who won't judge me for being me. I wish this process/experience was easier, but nothing worthwhile is ever easy, right? That's what the voices tell me anyway. Hehe.

"Y'all" has been a difficult adjustment, as I'm one of the million Ohioans that moved to SC. In Ohio, if you say "y'all", you're labeled a hillbilly. Here, it's simply a natural replacement for half the english language.

Thanks for the virtual cookies, too! I can actually eat those without worrying about how long it'll take to work off.

Love,

Sara

Welcome, Sara! Like Stranded, your subject line drew my attention too. My family's originally from the gulf coast of Mississippi.

You'll like it here.

      They cut a lot of trees here as well.  A lot of them toward the coast end up chipped up and sent to Europe to burn in power plants.  That bothers me, seems like a dumb idea.
    • Ivy
      Most likely.   Unfortunately this was expected.  I expect it will be the norm in any GOP controlled state that hasn't already done it.  So much effort expended against so few.  I certainly haven't seen my area being overrun by trans kids.   And yeah, I fully expect them to go after my HRT next. I think those that are railing against us are much more dangerous than some non-binary high school sophomore.

      Her name is Sunny and she is so much fun. But, as you said @KymmieL, it is a challenge with a new puppy. Thankfully our 13 year old Lab is taking the addition in stride and being supremely tolerant.  
    • Ivy
      It should be the league's business whether it allows trans women to play, not the park's.   (They seem to be inclusive - good on them)

      Sticking my neck out here, but that's what I see the RWNJ's doing all the time! They always need someone or something to "fight". Everything is a contest to them; there's always a battle to be had, an opponent to defeat, a dragon to slay, then another, and another.    *Sigh* if only they'd put their energy into working with people instead of against them.

      I think i became much more emotional overall.  Perhaps because use a topical E i haven't had the swings that some folks feel but i can laugh  and cry so much easier, sometimes over situations i would never have seen before.  Perhaps my age has something to do with it, but i am also much more peaceful and accepting of the storm life keeps presenting.   Hugs,   Charlize 
    • Mirrabooka
      I think the interpretation of the question is always going to provide a wide array of answers. Do I have a rich inner life? Yes! Why? Good question!   Circumstances often dictate how we feel within ourselves. I don't have to deal with work anymore and we've been jus' cruzin ever since. I don't have to fix anything, literal or otherwise. My wife and I live a relatively simple life and we are true partners, but deep inside, I'm not answerable to anyone except myself. So, how's that going? Well, since I came out to myself, which happened before I stopped working, I have felt an inner glow that was never apparent before. It is permanent now and it sustains me. How? Effed if I know! All I know is that even if I have down days, and there certainly have been a few, my heart, mind and soul are still smiling. I think it comes from a realization that I am finally happy just to be me.     
    • Charlize
      I had to look this acronym up.  That certainly has never been part of the LGBTQ community!  Politicians simply attempt to use peoples disgust to create the hate or fear they can "fight" against to win support and power.   Hugs,   Charlize

      Congrats, @April Marie on your new fur kid. As the mom to a 1 yr old fur kid. I know what you are going through. LOL.   Back to work after a good weekend. I hope that work doesn't drag my good weekend down. However, I believe it is wishful thinking. I will do the best that I can, if that is not enough. They can jump in a fing lake.   I have another week until my therapist appointment. So I hope I can make it. it seems my depression is getting worse. Can it, is there something lower that major?  Especially when dealing with work. So, I know I have to get out of there. I have put in for the parts at the local GM. Probably, be like Ford. OH, well nothing ventured nothing gained.      Hope everyone has a good day. Hugs, Kymmie  
    • Charlize
      If what you mean by defemination  is that folks are doubting or refusing to believe your feminity i'm sure others here have felt that.  I know i have in the past.  It seems to be part of the continuous attempt by some to see us all quietly hiding in the closet.   I don't fit in there anymore.   Hugs,   Charlize
    • Mirrabooka
      Yay!!! 😀 What's her name?
    • Mirrabooka
      Yep, I can see that too, especially if satire goes wrong.  I can totally understand why the uneducated hoi polloi think that gender identity and sexual preference (and now, pedophilia) are one and the same, and it weaponizes their bigotry. I touched on this in another thread recently when I asked the question whether the LGBTQIA+ umbrella was actually too inclusive and should be split, in an attempt to stop this sort of nonsense. I don't know the answer; while I think it is important for non-cis and non-het folk to band together, it leaves us wide open to attack.

      Good morning, everyone!   Sorry I've been absent so much. I truly miss the interaction with you all.    We have a new yellow Lab female puppy in the house as of Saturday so it's a challenge to find time to be here as we get her settled into a schedule, work on housebreaking and training, etc.    So, I'll check in as I can...when I can get a few minutes as she sleeps.   She slept 6 hours last night so we're making progress and we've been attentive to her schedule so no accidents in the house as of now.   She's consistently following the Sit command already - the wonder of puppy treats.    Be safe!!
    • April Marie
      New puppy. New schedule for now.
    • KatieSC
      Yeah, it is a real treat trying to combat the effects of an unwanted male puberty, or unwanted female puberty. Who will supply these kids with funding when they try to transition as adults? Insurance companies do everything they can to weasel out of paying for facial surgery, voice/speech therapy/voice surgery, and electrolysis. Not to mention the pain we all go through with these procedures that we may not have to endure as much with proper care at an early age. I cringe at what the next trans generations are going to face. The governor and his ilk, are typical of these super-majority R led states. Unless there is a huge change in the next 6 months, I am fearful of where things are heading. I feel like more bad stuff will unfold. I do not think they are done crucifying us.
