Hello! I'm an 18 year old girl from California and I came here at the recommendation of Lazarae. My interests include reading (sci-fi and fantasy plus webcomics like unsounded and homestuck ) and Tumblr (url proudtortoise) and Flight Rising (again proudtortoise). I'm moving to Oregon in a couple months for college and I'm excited because I'll finally be able to present as female (I'm trans and my parents aren't that accepting of it.) In the meantime, no one wants to hire a high school graduate who's only here for two months so I'm just really bored. Plus my parents are only getting more controlling as I approach leaving which kind of sucks. Good news though! I got my official diagnosis of gender dysphoria today! I'm still not sure how to actually get hormones but it's a good start!
Hello and welcome! I'm just gonna drop this link to the Username Origin Stories thread here 'cause I like your username and am interested in hearing more about it.
It's actually not interesting at all and can be summed up with a piece of information (my first online account was on Miniatures Trading) and a Google search (proud tortoise).
Yep, PT is my fault! Glad to see you on the board proper and grats on the diagnosis! I know a couple people here are on hormones, if you wanna ask for advice in the XX/XY forum maybe one of them could help. Sorry, I just woke up and am kind of tired, just the people here are really cool and have helped me lots and I'm one of those Fix ALL of the Things types.
