New Member Intro, Y'all

[DV]

So, my name is Lee and I'm a trans guy living in the rural south. Been out for a few years, but haven't had access to hrt so most people still read me as a very masculine woman, and I don't correct them for safety reasons. 

It's very nearly a done deal that I will be moving to a college town in NY soon to get my PhD, so I'm hoping to use that five-year period to medically and legally transition, and I've got a lot of questions about that process. (Of course I'm still a 'woman' going by my old name until I get my acceptance in writing)

 

Mostly, I'm here because I want to be able to talk to other trans people in a safe environment.

Greetings Lee!  This is the place to engage in conversation in a safe and caring manner.  There are many other guys here and they come out when there are subjects they can comment on so don't be bashful about asking questions.  

Great plan to use the time in NY to transition.  You'll do well.  

 

Please join in the conversation.

 

Cheers, Jani

Welcome to Trans Pulse, Lee.  Congrats on your pursuit of your PhD.  We have quite a few trans men here, including our own trans man Moderator, JJ.  He's also resides in the rural South.  Please make yourself at home and look around the forums.  Ask whatever questions come to mind,

Thank you all for your nice greetings!

I tend to do more browsing than posting, but it's nice to see this place seems super friendly and chill, so I'm sure I'll get over being shy about that soon enough.
