So I'm new to EC, and need some advice. I came out as ftm transgender a few months ago, sincerely believing that was the gender identity that fit me, but now I've come to realize after telling friends and making a new Facebook, that I identify more closely still as gender queer or gender fluid. Not that thinking I was trans* was a phase, but I just went through an immensely masculine period and now that it's over I'm feeling more neutral. My question would be should I take down my transgender profile and tell my friends I no longer wish to go by my self appointed male name, or keep the page up and only tell friends I can trust to not be mad for the confusion?
Welcome , it is all up to you if you take down the page and tell people things have change in your life and you no longer want to use the male name , if you feel that may not be the best thing and you should only tell certain friends that may be good too . I understand the spot you are in because not everyone is going to be understanding and say or do mean things .My advice is maybe start out with the trusted friends first and see how that goes if all goes good them maybe you can pull the page and give it a try . I wish you the best of luck

Hello and welcome It might be advisable to start a new thread in this section, for example: Gender Identity and Expression - Empty Closets - A safe online community for gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender people coming out There are probably more people reading it than in the welcome section...
