Life sucks and I feel like shit

Holiday time, okay so whatever happen to the egg nog sold in grocery stores? lol

Spending the holidays likely alone this year.

Is it wrong that I don't identify with the transgender community anymore? I mean I go into a TS chatroom, and all they wanna talk about is hormones, appearance and sex. It's a repeat. I mean on occasion music and movies will be discussed, with the occasional politics, but amongst girl on girl conversation it's a repeat of what I said they like to talk about. Is it wrong that I don't wanna discuss this with anyone anymore? I mean sex wise, I am fine with never having sex again if that's meant to happen, appearance fades over time, and hormones it's like I would only discuss it with my doctor. I'd much rather discuss hobbies with like minded people than talk about my transition. I dunno, I just find the typical TS chatroom topics to be a bit bleh.

I understand your point, but keep in mind that this is the transgender group. And as such, this is the place where transgender topics get discussed. This forum is best served for new people coming to terms with their transgender, and or going through their transition and need help. There are like hundreds of forums on this site to cover just about any subject. Though I admit I haven't joined most of them, I am just pointing it out there.

And for the record, I talk about more then transgender. I also talk about video games as you well know, I talk about my interests in MLP which is totally girl related. I talk about my other girly stuff like nail polish, lip gloss. I even uploaded pics of my girly things, except for the reborns.

The thing you have to keep in mind is that were all not going to get along simply cause were girls. Friends become friends because they have commonalities with each other, its no different then in the straight world.

Maybe an admin can make a sub category for everything else in this forum. Come to think of it, I've never once seen a CL in this forum, sad we don't have a professional to help out in transgender forum.

See I don't mind discussing girl things. But when this chatroom I go into discusses hormones appearance and sex almost everyday, it's like where do you draw the line and discuss other things? Then you have the Filipina girls in there speaking in Tagalog or whatever it is, and you don't understand a word they say. I rarely go in anymore cause I don't wanna be bombarded with sex talk. If it's none of the above, it's girls causing drama.

I don't mind discussing TG issues here, because it's a place for people to get support. But in a chatroom, at least vary the topics so sex isn't a daily topic.

I am referencing the chat room on tsdating.com and singletransexuals.com depending on which site you're accessing the chat on. It's a dating site for trans women. Sex topics are okay among friends who know each other in real life, not where you have never met the person. Or at least if it has to be amongst strangers, let it be in a support group like this.

On another note besides the internet,.

Even though I have surrounded myself with good people, I still feel a bit distant from those around me around the holidays. Only one person in my life knows what it's like to lose their mom, so I feel like that's the only person I am not distant from. But even then, I just wanna go back to my childhood and give my mom a big hug and erase how I treated her when I had high anxiety.

Also as a follow up to not identifying with the trans community, I just needed to vent. Yes I am a postop, but I don't identify with most of the community in the online dating sites because of the topics discussed in the chat room on the sites I said before hand. And if it's not about who needs sex, it's creating drama, which I am not about.

Sorry if anyone took my words to heart.

I think I just miss-understood you cause I never go into chatrooms and I thought you were tlking about the transgender group here. I agree, talking about sex all the time would get annoying. There is more to life then sex, and if a person doesn't realize that, then they haven't found what they are looking for.

I feel like crying in an angels arms, I feel emotionally down.

((((hugs)))) Hope you feel better soon, Ashley. May the spirit of Christmas take over and help you feel better.

This non trans person said that Shiloh Jolie-Pitt can't possibly know their future in life especially with gender. I have to disagree. I knew when I was 5 I was supposed to be a girl. I tried to appease everyone til I was 16, and then got tired of lying to myself. This person is thinking of it from a parental perspective, not so much as trying to show a little empathy. Of course I had to put them in their place without cursing of course. The earlier one transitions the easier it is. And like I said, I think children have more insight as to who they are than after they grow up. I dunno, that's just me.

Merry Christmas, everyone!

Merry Christmas

I knew when I was 3 years old I was supposed to be a guy, not the girl the rest of the world insisted I was. But back then - in the 60's - there wasn't really any clue this was a real thing.

If a small kid says that he/she is supposed to be a gender different from the physical body, chances are the kid is correct. I wish I could have transitioned before puberty; my life would have been less hellish.

I say kudos to parents who do listen when their kids tell them these things, and are willing to accept and work with their children to help them.
