I'm not new, but I'm different and I want to introduce myself again.

    Hey guys. I first came here in 2012, a lesbian with some issues. And now, 4 (kind of rough) years have gone by, and here I am again, a non-binary person with... some different issues. I'm kind of lonely, and unlike when I came out as gay, I don't really have a wealth of other people questioning their identity around me. And this identity is one that's socially less acceptable to have, at least in my geographic location.

    So, in short, I'm a little scared. It's a little scary. And I'd like friends online to talk to who I don't feel bad for questioning myself around, who understand the feeling, or at least the situation. I also need an environment that's less combative and more cooperative. I came back because I remember EC being that, and I need a bit of that right now. I decided to introduce myself again because I feel like somewhere in the middle, I changed a lot.

    You can call me Rae, for now. :wave: Hi.

    Hey Rae! Personally I think gender fluidity is becoming more and more visible and I've met quite a lot of people with neutral pronouns in the recent past. Hope you find what you need here :slight_smile:
