Member Introductions

Hello to everyone Now - how do I introduce myself? What labels/descriptions/terminolgy do I use? Gender and gender identity is so complex and individual that sometimes none of the prepaid labels seem to fit. First of all, "Ben Verona" is not my real name, but I guess many people here use a pseudonymn. On the face of it I'm a 64 year old man living in England. Here's the first stumbling block - your image of "64" might conjure up the word "old". Well - I don't feel "old" but I am also entirely comfortable with my age. I'm far more at one with myself than I was when I was 30. So - I'm biologically male but for many years I have identified more with my feminine psyc…

Hello all. I am Jan-cd. Hope to have fun on this site. Hugs!!!

I'm Joy from Dover in the UK, still in the closet, looking to make friends to help me emerge!!

I am a 27 year old MTF crossdresser and considering becoming a full Transgender woman and completing the surgery. In the meantime, I am here looking for other crossdresser/transgender friends to connect with and talk to. It would be even more incredible if I could find some friends that lived close by me in the Columbus, OH to Marion, OH area to hang out with, have girls days with, go shopping with, drinks, look at cute boys and girls together with. Someone to dress up with and just be girls with. I am looking for friends only. I am in a committed relationship with a girl and just looking to have "girl"friends to do things with.

Hi all just wanted to introduce myself my name is nick and I've recently accepted that I like to dress up as a women and that I'm attracted to men as well as women and ts/tg I live in perth australia and would love to hear from anyone in this area and would really like to make some friends along the way. If anyone can give me some info on the ts/tg community in perth I would really appreciate hearing from you

Hello, My name is Sandi and I'm from sunny Arizona. I'm a mtf transexual that has just started down the path of discovering who I really am, and how far to go. Like most other "girls" in this situation I was born and raised during a time period that our "situations" were not discussed openly. I felt both ashamed of who I was as well as desiring very much to become the "person" I felt I was truly meant to be. Having lived almost 50 years as the wrong gender, I'm not sure I can correct things now, but I'm hoping to at least learn how to let Sandi live her life in a manner that gives her some freedom, joy and happyness.

Hi my name is Andi. I have newly found out that I am transgendered mainly gender fluid. Hope to find some friends :-)

Like in the title, my name is Ashley and I identify as a pansexual pre-op transgender Wiccan man who was in a bit of denial for the first 24 years of my life. Well not quite denial until I was in fourth grade. Up until that point, I just thought of myself as different but a normal kid nonetheless. My earliest memories of my childhood was the continuous shunning of dresses, dolls, tea sets and tea parties for playing with the boys in the neighborhood, playing on my Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle big wheel, and always wearing little boy's clothing. Then around fourth grade, I started to realize I was attracted to both boys and girls and started making myself feel guilt…

Hi everyone..first of all i would like to say thanks to all of you for sharing yourselves and making me and everyone feel comfortable in our endeavors..I guess i been doing this all my life..but most times i supressed it cos i was supposed to be a guy..i thought i wasnt normal or something was "wrong". I always hid who i wanted to be in favor of who i was expected to be..but no longer!! better late then never right? I truly wish i had the courage to be who i wanted to long long ago..instead of purging my feminine side..feeling i was doing something wrong..so the other night i did it for the first real time. I was blown away by how i felt..now its on!! lol..glad to meet yo…

Hello everyone my names Paige I'm a feminine crossdresser and have been crossdressing pretty much my whole life, well.. for as far back as i can remember anyway. At 7 yr.s old I was sneaking my mom's nylons to wear. I always had that deep desire to be a girl! Pretty much behind closed doors, although i've had a few occassions where i was out of the closet..so to speak. I'm bisexual and have dressed for men on a few different occasions, and also dressed for a lady neighbor of mine when i was livng at a hotel for about a year. But unfortunately where I live now, its basically alot of closed minded people that wouldn't and don't understand my desire to be feminine. Which…

I started following @TGGuide on twitter and Lori suggested that I join and introduce myself. I am Jeremy Mathis. My daughter is Coy, a 6 year old transgender girl. I just want to get to know people and make new friends. I have been fortunate that the very few number of people I am friends with in person have been supportive of me and my wife and especially our daughter, but I feel that they don't quite understand. Since Coy's story has been in the news, I have been able to meet other transgender men, women, and their supportive families. It is so uplifting to speak to people who understand without question. Thanks for hosting this website and for letting me be part of it…

Hello my name is Ethan and I know how awesome this site is...its been awhile since I have visited and thought I should check in. I started my transition in 2006. There have been many bumps in the road but that is life. I have support from my family and friends and I know just how blessed that makes me. Its good to be back!! Ethan

My name is Loreena, and I am 35 years old. I am married and have 2 boys. I realized I was transgendered 10 years ago. I have within the last month completely accepted it and have decided that I can no longer hide the truth. I am going to a community college in Nebraska to earn my Associate degree. I have one more year, then we are moving to Wyoming so I can complete my degree and become a Mental Health Councillor. I am going to start transitioning now, but won't sit down with a councillor to start the road to HRT and SRS until I make the move to Wyoming. So that's were I am at.

Hello to all. I am re introducting myself as I have been doing some stuff in my personal life that have now changed my life forever. My name is Daniel Caswell, I am the distant cousin to the famous Alexis Caswell..former Brown University 6th president out of Providence RI. I have been doing my family tree and now found that my blood that runs through me is of a strong welsh origin. I have now shed that old Ravyn name and now my life has become with a purpose now. I am trying to learn everything about my Welsh culture and will from time to time be speaking in Welsh language, which I will add english translation to it. I am now happy of my new found life and will be posting…

Hello, My name is Lilly Blue (not my real name) and I am a 33 year old transgender woman living in fabulous Las Vegas. While I knew at a young age I was "different," I had no idea how. I lived the majority of my life trying to blend in but I found myself suffering from chronic depression and became intent on finding out why I couldn't be happy. After ready a blog by a trans woman in Australia, I started to understand my depression. After some experimentation with cross dressing and the like, I began seeing a therapist who helped me understand myself further.
