Good luck!! In my experience people were super friendly and non-judgemental. Personally I only introduced myself and then was too anxious to say anything other than whispers to the 2 people I already knew there.

At mine there's one person from the org leading the group and they just ask the group to introduce themselves before asking a few silly questions. After that they asked us questions like "What's something positive that happened to you recently", "what's something exciting that you did recently", "Has anyone had a positive experience with a family member when coming out?", things like that. Just topics that'll start a bit of discussion and socializing. People can ask follow up questions to anyone who answers or give out friendly advice if the person answering is open to it.

It's just a nice atmosphere for trans people to be openly trans and socialize with people like ourselves.

Almost like a curated version of our megathread i guess.

I went to a trans support group this week doggirl-happy

Took a friend and my roommate was already a regular so I wasn't alone which was really nice. I mainly went to help my friend cuz it seems like she really needed to find some kind of community, but I enjoyed it a lot as well. I didn't say much since I'm naturally super shy in new groups. Definitely wanna go back.

Also this is how i find out that IKEA plush had yet another instance of drone rights induced drama and Ada once again sided with the trolls. Gods i hope that the trans people still there eventually open their eyes to hexbear.

Sucks to fucking suck. Eat shit etc.

I don't care to federate back with IKEA.trans, Ada made her bed and now she has to lie in it. Chaser libs and all.

Just saw on xhs that some trans women in china use 🍥 as a trans symbol because of the packaging a lot of them get their E in.

This is so cute I love it, no notes.

Thank you for that post. Commiserating with the comments was... therapeutic (?) in a way.

Got really drunk on saturday and finally came out to my irl friend group chat. Waking up not remembering doing that was "fun". This is also the second time I've gotten way too drunk and came out (first time was almost ten years ago when I came out to them at a party as bisexual)

Would not recommend it.

internalized transphobia relating to ageIn my coming out message I put in my chosen name and for the first two days afterwards, I thought that maybe I wasn't ready to do that.

On analyzing that feeling I'm realizing that it might just be attatched to my internalized shame about coming out at my age and feeling that this whole thing, this whole experience, is a kid/teen/young adult thing. Like thinking about it makes me feel like I'm going to be physically ill. I actually gag when I think about it, out of shame or embarrassment.

I think I need to talk to more older trans people.

Not a huge loss anyway, they're 90% va*shites.

Also this is gonna come off as anti-fun but I personally take issue with the biggest trans symbol being a product from a multinational conglomerate.

Did my eyebrows the other day and found a foundation that matches my skin tone as well as some decent drug store eyeliners.

Then yesterday my girlfriend straightened my bangs and showed me how to do a wing decently and cleaned up my brows further. On saturday I had another session of laser as well. The girl in the mirror is starting to appear daily now and I'm so excited, I've been wanting to perform girl even more lately as I've just been vibing on HRT for the last year. My voice is starting to come out a bit when I'm actually trying and I'm becoming a bit more confident in it aahhhh things are starting to come up. I just need to figure out a way to leave my current shitty job and still be able to afford rent cuz I am struggling AND I can't be openly trans. Shit sux but I don't have any qualifications whatsoever so what can I really do emilie-shrug
