Er. First post here, obviously. I also think I may be too young for this community. (There is the completely dead transgendrteens. But I want advice, dammit, so I'm posting here before I do anything rash ( Read more... )

Nice post title :-D I'm not a big fan of The Who, but the video left a very big impression on me when I was too young to even understand :-)

Thanks. I was trying to come up with something interesting and attention-grabbing, and that song popped into my head. :D

I'm all out of advice, so I'll just say "good luck with the gastric bypass surgery" and "good luck with finding who you are"..
.. Hope you find yourself quickly and painlessly!

First off, you don't have to decide, today, tomorrow, or even EVER just what you are (male or female).

Second, Welcome!

Third, Good luck with the impending surgery.

Fourth, since I saw from other comments that you're already seeing a therapist, try talking to him/her about your gender identity concerns.

For myself, at 15 almost 16 I knew I was a guy inside, but didn't know that things like transmales existed. I lived in the dark of this reality for a long time and my confusion didn't hit until many years later. I applaud you for the strength of courage that it takes to come here even, to say "hey I feel this way." (even if it is "Hey I feel CONFUSED about my gender!")

I know. One of my friends that I told, but wasn't so certain, said that I was at that age where I would have months and years to think about it.

Thank you!

Thanks again. XD

Yeah. I see her friday, and my psychiatrist on the 17th, so I'll ask then.

Yeah. but times are changing now. I've pretty much always known that transmales/females existed. (Or at least drag queens. :/) I guess it just shows you how the media and such have changed. (I remember watching an episode of Maury where all his guests were transgender.)
