    Hi! Call me PuppyLand. I'm a bisexual girl in my early teens. I'm not out at all yet and people just assume I'm straight. I like dogs, swimming, art, the Internet, and music. I'm so happy I found this website. It makes me really happy to have a place I can feel accepted in. I mean, my parents would be accepting and my friends might be okay with it, but I'm too scared. I'm not scared by much except for things that involve talking to other people. I am female and not trans or anything, but I'm a tomboy.

    Hey PuppyLand!
    I'm new here, too! I'm glad to hear that you feel comfortable and welcome on this site. I think I will as well. What is the scariest thing for you about talking to other people?

    Heya PuppyLand! My names Jess! (Bi & F2M.) It's pretty awesome that you think you'll have a good support Network! I was lucky enough that my family was really accepting, so I'm sure yours will be too! And yay swimming! I grew up in SoCal and used to swim all the time, but now that I moved not so much. What are some of your favorite bands?

    Other people aren't really scary... I'm just worried that they won't be accepting. I love feminism and gay rights, and I can get upset when people disagree with me.

    Yea, swimming is really awesome. My two favorite bands are Evanescence and Imagine Dragons.

    Yess!!! I love them both. When I found Evanescence I binge listened to her music and got stuck singing an octave too high for a year and a half. It was terrifying. But now I have an amazing vocal range XD

    That is understandable. And there are always going to be people out there who disagree. However, I have been very lucky to find that a lot of people who I didn't expect to understand and/or be supportive of lgbt things in general actually turned out to be super compassionate and understanding and even people I never would have guessed to be part of the lgbt community turned out to be!

    Never forget that there is more good in the world than bad :slight_smile:
