    All I want to say right now is that from the posts I've read this seems like a great community. I am happy to find somewhere that I can express myself more freely. I've told the people I needed to that I am bi but have not really confided in anyone before about my gender identity issues. The few times I touched on it I acted like it was a problem sufficiently dealt with. Uh huh.

    Hope everybody is having an all right day.

    Hello and welcome to EC! :welcome: :smilewave. It's a pleasure to meet you :slight_smile: I'm so happy to hear that you've found solace and comfort in this site already :grin:.

    Which Portland? Maine, Tennessee, Texas, or Oregon? (You know that Portland, Oregon was named for Portland, Maine due to a coin toss. If it were heads instead of tails, it'd be Boston, Oregon, due to each of the duelists wanting to name the newly found city after their respective hometowns) :slight_smile:

    I'm only male for argument's sake. Why sweat the small stuff?

    Well it is more that I have learned by force of habit over twenty plus years to "check" myself regularly from behaving in the way I would naturally. Now that I've identified how unhappy it makes me to not be authentic I am trying to build up the courage to drop the constant filter between who I am and what I present to the world. It's not proving to be very easy but I am just getting started...

    Thanks for your post.
