Thank you so much, those were nice to read and i can relate with a few. I've tried tucking and it was weird probably because i was doing it wrong lol Also, i find it hard to call myself a girl, or to feel like one, i know we've talked about there's no right way to be a girl but it's hard for me to g...

I think there's definitely been a lot of information but there's a few pieces I definitely want to go back and touch on real quick. I'm really sorry to hear about your family situation, I know how hard that can be and I hope that gets better. I also want to let you know that part of being closeted,...

Thank you so much for helping and giving advice. I hope you stay safe out there.

Thank you again for helping. I can definitely relate with most of that list. Whenever I'm out and about i see cute girls and wish i was them and had what they had, however due to this fascination really i always felt disgusted to myself and almost perverted, which is a mindset I'm struggling with. A...

Hi there, CaptainWildRose! As like the others said, you don't need any amount of dysphoria to be trans. The only person that can say if you're trans is yourself. From personal experience being trans mtf, I can tell you that not only does the amount and severity of dysphoria vary by person, but can ...

Thank you for sharing your experiences and thoughts, any little bit help honestly. I'm very closeted, I've only told two people in my family, mainly due to the fact that my family is conservative Christian and won't accept me if they knew. However, as for why i think I'm trans is, i never felt like ...

Those were nice to read, thank you

I'm still curious as to what other people think on this though.

Hello! I'm transgender (MtF) and I've been thinking about my body a lot recently and I've noticed that i have very little if any body dysphoria like other trans people have had and i was wondering if this means I'm not actually trans? I've felt okay in my body for the most part but never felt like i...

In this case, I'm referring to bottom surgery (vaginoplasty), I'm curious what it's like and how different it is compared to when you have male parts.

Hello, this question is for transgender women who have transitioned from male to female (MtF) and i wanted to know, if it's not weird or inappropriate of me to ask, but, how different was masturbating after transitioning? Was it better? Longer? I'm curious how it works.

Okay, I understand that. I'm heading out for the day soon, but if you want to, I'd be happy to talk to you -- presently or later on if you feel differently, whichever you prefer -- about working to accept things like your body size when it comes to your gender. As someone pretty agender but who als...

Hey there. :) Can I ask why weight loss came up again? Was that you that brought that up or her? I know it's already been said, but for your sake and that of anyone else reading, I do just want to reiterate that people of every gender come in every size and shape. There is no one "right" ...

It's absolutely okay to use this space to process and vent. I think this sorrow and loneliness may also be a point in favor of at least calling the local LGBT center and asking if they know of ways to help you visit, or other resources in town you could utilize that would be sensitive to what you'r...

Me and my sister had a long few talks and i had an epiphany, I've never been skinny or anything in my life, so after some long thoughts, i thought that if i could lose weight, i could try being a guy and seeing if the dysphoria goes away, but if it doesn't get better I'm going to do what'll make me...

Oh, wow. I'm... so sorry to hear that, CaptainWildRose. It sounded like your sister had been initially accepting, but now you're forcing yourself to go back into the closet even to yourself. =( How did you feel during this conversation with your sister? Is she the one who suggested you might be con...

I'm so glad that things went well coming out to your friend and your sister! That's awesome! It's been a few days, how are you feeling about that now? I also just want to encourage you to really think about taking advantage of any reason you can use to get out of the house, including the resources ...

I have a lot on my mind right now so i haven't thought about calling but, my relationship with her is almost nonexistent for a few reasons, but my sister will say she's going over there for a day or two and my mom doesn't care.

I know this isn't a direct reply to you, alexa but i felt this was worth a post itself. I've been buttering up my sister to see if she'd understand and accept me. Well tonight i asked what she'd do if out younger sister was gay, to test the waters, she said she'd still love her and eventually we got...

You don't have to give them either of those names if you don't want to when you call in! Or, you don't have to at first, and then you can decide if you feel safe to do that after talking with them. You also can make up a whole different name if you want. The people who run these centers will usuall...

How do you feel about calling your local center, telling them you'd like to go but have transportation issues/concerns, and seeing if you can't brainstorm together to come up with some ideas? For instance, maybe someone there would be willing to take the bus or train with you so you don't have to g...

I'm not sure my local center does that, however what i do know, is my family is very close, if one leaves the house everyone knows and asks questions, i don't have any friends so unfortunately i can't lie about where I'd be going and they wouldn't let me walk even if i tried. As for public transport...

I'm glad to hear that you have a plan for getting out of your family's house and out on your own; with an unsupportive family that's likely to be the best way for you to be able to live more authentically as yourself. Have you ever looked into whether your area has any sort of support or social gro...

All of those are helpful, just having people to talk with is nice.

I plan on getting a job sometime next year, I'm going to save up and maybe buy a car after i get my drivers license, my cousins offered to take me in (unfortunately they aren't accepting) but I've figured that while I'm with them i could save up money for a car, and eventually a place to live, I'm p...

I had an online friend of mine check this theard and mentioned that thea was a real life friend of mine as to hide the fact it was actually me. He wanted to help and gave me advice to give to her, and eventually i contemplated telling him the truth and later that night i got into an xbox party with ...
