Hi everyone, I am a 23 year old from England. I am a musician and I love listening to punk rock and watching horror movies.

 

I was assigned male at birth and have lived as a male my whole life, but deep down I've always felt female. I have always wanted to be seen as a female by others, and every time I am called "he" or "him" it just doesn't sound right. I hate my body and wish it was feminine instead of masculine.

 

This is the first time in my life I have admitted this. I suffer with depression and anxiety but when I dress up in feminine clothing (in private) I feel happy and confident. I feel as though I am whole. Coming out as transgender (which I have come to the conclusion I probably am) just isn't an option though at the moment because it would be very upsetting for my family and ruin all my friendships. I have joined this forum to hear the experiences of similar people and and I hope one day I will be ready to live as a female.

Welcome! This forum is awesome, alot of helpful, supportive folks here. I just started using it recently to seek help sorting out my gender dysphoria. People here are pretty warm and welcoming. 

 

Love your username! I have a passion for punk rock here in the states. All my friends are anarcho crusties! ❤️

Welcome Sophie.  When i joined this site i was much like you.  I loved presenting as female.  I had started to move in society as myself but only where no-one knew me.  I also feared the reaction of family and friends.  The time i spent here and some time with a gender therapist helped me discover my path. 

Simply knowing i wasn't alone helped a great deal.

 

Hugs,

 

Charlize

Thank you everyone for such a warm welcome! I really didn't expect such a friendly welcome. And it feels so nice to finally be referred to as my 'real' name instead of my male one ☺️

 

In response to Jani's question, I play guitar and bass.

      What do you do when you feel triggered?

      By atlantis63 · Posted

      I'm not happy to admit this, but I usually scream or break things.   Breaking things became a bit of a no no, because It was always a cd or something I liked and it got very expensive to replace stuff

      If you could talk for 1 hour about any topic without preparation, what would it be?

      By atlantis63 · Posted

      Probably amusement parks. I've never been to one sadly, but I think I could talk for an hour about them without any problem

      That's horrible that they are blaming you for her presumption. I hate to say it but maybe they are looking for reasons.

      Voting for Trump

      By Mirrabooka · Posted

      I have no skin in the game here, apart from the signal that a re-elected Trump sends to likeminded politicians around the world, which would result in an indirect yet detrimental effect on many people here and elsewhere. So, hopefully what I write here can be used as a reference for how he, and American politics in general, is viewed from a country that is not directly involved.   It seems to me that politics is not taken seriously by enough people in America. Actually, specifically the USA (America can be anywhere from Prudhoe Bay to Panama to Patagonia). Electing a celebrity to high office just wouldn't happen here, let alone one who has overseen the bankruptcy of several of his business ventures and is embroiled in hush-money scandals. I remember during my teenage years when Reagen was elected; the main point of conjecture here was that he was just a B-grade actor. Equally laughable was Arnie as governor of California, although he turned out to be somewhat more socially progressive than most Republican politicians.    I simply cannot understand why the Dems cannot find a decent candidate. Biden has cognitive issues. Everyone expected Harris to step up by now, but no. Where's Jed Bartlet when you need him, lol! In my mind, if Martin Sheen threw his hat in the ring, he'd be elected in a heartbeat because many of you would actually believe that he was the real deal! Even though he's older than Biden!!!   Sorry if that sounds like I am trying to insult the intelligence of y'all. But y'all asked for it, by valuing celebrity over substance over the last five decades or so.    I have no doubt that Trump will win in November, even if he is in jail. His rusted-on supporters will just say, "Yep! That's our boy!!!"
