Hello! I'm Jo. I'm a 17 year old girl from Australia. I'm totally new to the whole forum thing, so please let me know if I'm making any silly mistakes. After a long period of questioning, I realised I was bi halfway through high school. I've currently only dipped my toe out of the closet, coming out to several close friends. So far, the process has been really scary and really really stressful but I'm incredibly grateful that I've been met with nothing but love and acceptance so far! I'm basically a massive nerd. If its considered nerdy, just assume I'm a fan. I'm anime trash, a gamer, a lover of cartoons, etc. To avoid clogging up this intro post, I've thrown more details about my interests into my profile.
Hi Jo... Brilliant to have you here. You are so welcome. It is scary, but you have taken a massive step. You will get to meet lots and lots of good, kind and caring people. As for me, do message me anytime you're feeling lonely, worried, or would just like a chat. I'm sure you won't make any silly mistakes... You'll be fine. (!) :welcome:
Welcome! Feel free to talk to me about nerdy stuff, I'm an expert but youll probably get more sense out of me when it comes to games.
Welcome!! I will introduce myself: I'm also a fanatic of nerdy stuff!! Gaming, anime, manga, good story cartoons, I love them!! I also love drawing and doing good quality fanarts!! Current fandoms: -Steven Universe -Undertale -Anime -And my OCs lol
Hi, Jo! If you're a female gamer, you might well like the book You're Never Weird on the Internet by Felicia Day. John
I'm a fan of Felicia Day, so I'm surprised I haven't checked out her book yet. Thanks for the recommendation!

Hello, Jo! I came out as bi earlier this year, and I understand how it can be rough. Everyone here is super supportive, and you'll be able to find people who know what you're going through, and can help out! If you ever need a chat, hit up my wall! I work weird hours in the US, so I should be able to respond when you're on in AUS. All the best!
