Transgender: an ftm intro (sort of)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ot-i4DwcZas&feature=channel_video_title


There are others, too, like me, who came from a small, Christian,conservative, Baptist background and have still managed to blend fairly well into societal "norms."

I thought that a fairly thorough photo journey of my 27yrs of life will best tell the story that I've allowed those outside myself to know of me, without getting into the gritty details of the real story happening in my mind. So, when seeing the pictures from childhood on, remember that being transgender doesn't just happen one day-- transgender people were transgender kids, transgender teens, and, now like me, transgender adults who may be-- as it is in my case-- still lost.

Transitioning shouldn't be deemed immoral any more so than allowing a person with a broken leg the right to wear a cast until it heals should seem like deviant behavior...

If you're wondering what I plan on doing with my newfound label, then I have no answers for you. For now, I'm just satisfied knowing I'm not alone.

These 4 channels have been the most explanatory that I've found so far. Check them out if you want to watch/hear some guys with quite a bit more knowledge/experience than I.

And to Sky, Charles, Kaden, & Ky-- thanks for being positive, informative resources.

Hey, just found yr videos. Hit me up if you ever wanna chat. I really wish youtube had been around when I was coming out! That's for sure. :) I started my medical transition when I was 26.

@sneetchinflux Wow... I'm debating whether I should be intrigued or slightly disgusted. But I think the outcome depends on one question: What kind of pudding was it? :p
