I'm pretty sure I'm trans and bi and I'm now at least coming out to you all. There's no going back from this now in my own mind. While I'm sure there will be backlash in my personal life when I come out to old friends and family, aside from that, I've been thinking a long time about what transitioning would entail and all of it just sounds so incredibly happy and exciting. I think that's probably a sign that I'm making the right choice. This isn't a new thing by any means (actually going back many many years, but not realized until now), but being around you all has really helped me to identify certain aspects of my thought process that can be genuinely categorized as gender dysphoria. My current plan is to take it slow and keep walking towards what I feel is right for me, but I wanted to highlight how important the community here has been in helping me get to this point and thank you all so much for providing that.

Anyways, happy Pride Month! and if there's anything I can do to help any of you to better realize who you really are (either way) I'd be more than happy to help out. Thanks again :-)

Also wanted to specifically thank @Wake@hexbear.net, @Cromalin@hexbear.net, @wtypstanaccount04@hexbear.net for making me feel supported, and of course @TransComrade69@hexbear.net for making this site a safe space for queer/trans people in the first place. Glad to get that all off my chest and I'm going to sleep now. Hopefully none of this came off as cringe.

Nah no cringe here

It was a pleasure. Congrats on coming out! Now I'm going to change my pronouns to see how weird it feels.

[-] wtypstanaccount04@hexbear.net 4 points 5 months ago

Eww this already feels off. It's like I'm looking at a different person. I said I would do it in solidarity!

Also absolutely none of this comes out as cringe. Congrats on embracing yourself! trans-hatch

Congrats!! Are your pronouns updated on your name? Also, you're a stabby pirate/bank robber now too. I don't make the rules, here's your knife. trans-dagger meow-knife-trans

Now let's go do a heist!
