Hey everyone,
My name is Laurel. I am a 23yr old mtf trans girl. I came to this site hoping to find friends, wisdom, encouragement, and to provide the same. I think it can be very difficult to find trans friends for most people. It's hard to escape the "tranny chasers" and most of us are scared of how we look, sound, and we worry about being outed.
But I'm tired of being afraid.
I'm in the U. S. Military and because of that I cannot be very open about being trans or start hrt. That bothered me in the beginning but now I see it as an opportunity. I have been forced to pace myself and it had brought me strength and clarity.
The world can be dangerous for us, and I know many of you know that much better than I do. But I am not going to hide away. We are here and we are real people. I'm not an activist, but I am free and I think it would benefit all of us to let go of our fear.
Easier said than done right?
I have a philosophy that I have lived by most of my life and all of my adult life. Stick to your guns on every decision you make, and make that decision with confidence in yourself. I have made some stupid decisions but I stood by them and faced the consequences with an open mind and humility.
You make choices for yourself and you must stand by them.
I have chosen to make my body mirror my soul and I will stand by that, no matter the cost. I encourage all of you to stand with me because I stand with you!
We can surround each other with all the love and support we will ever need. Together, we are strong. That's why I am here.
I love and respect you all!
