    Hello everyone,

    Sooooooo I don't really know where to start :dry:. I'm a female living in the Netherlands and am a student. I'm out to those I think it matters to (family and friends). Yet I don't talk much about it (because I want people to know me for who I am, not who I feel attracted to) and so I have no one I can really share thoughts with. Which is why I signed up here (I hope that makes any sense, haha). Fire off any questions to me you want! :icon_bigg

    Hey Wiggle! :grin:
    Welcome to EC. Have you always lived in the Netherlands or are you just studying there?

    When and how did you realise you're lesbian?

    Such fast replies. Nice!

    TJ: I'm born and raised in the Netherlands, so 100% a Dutch. I used to live in a small village but moved to Amsterdam to study.

    Hi FireSmoke! I won't say I 'always somewhat knew it'. But in the back of my head I did. However, when I was 14 a specific girl stepped into my math class and from that moment on I actually realized it. But it didn't surprise me or anything. It did take me a few years to actually really tell people about it though. It's funny, your question actually makes me realize I remember that moment way more clear cut than I would've thought.

    Hi :icon_bigg

    Amsterdam?? I love this city :slight_smile:

    Yeah, it's funny. :lol: For me, it was the same about only the gender identity.
    About sexuality, it was almost a surprise :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    Hah, you've been in Amsterdam?! Awesome! It is sure is an amazing city. I like the fact there are parts you'll run into more tourists than locals but really within 10 minutes you can be at places where there are hardly any tourists.

    I see you're Italian? Do you still live there and if so, where do you live (more or less)?

    When did you start questioning your gender identity (as in, when did you become aware of it) and how do you identify now?

    No, I have never been in Amsterdam but I'd love to visit this city!

    Yeah, I'm italian and I still live in Italy, in Rome :icon_wink

    I always know about my gender identity, but I start questioning about this one year ago. It wasn't simple. I thought for a lot of time I could be a FTM, but with time I understand I am a Genderqueer (for more information, feel free to read my profile details :wink: )

    Italy brings back childhood memories :icon_bigg. I spent quite some holidays there with my parents during the summer break. I've never been to Rome though.

    Ahh your profile explained more, yet got me thinking. I wanted to send you a pm but figured out that's impossible because I haven't posted enough yet. So perhaps in a while you'll see a pm appear xD
