    Hello Everyone!

    Of course I am a newbie here, but I look forward to making new friends. This seems like a warm, welcoming place to be and I hope it continues to feel that way. I am a middle aged individual who has for most of my life identified as a butch lesbian, but, in this last year or so, I am really beginning to question whether this is my correct identity. I'm seriously beginning to think I am transgendered and not a butch lesbian. I have been tossing the whole subject back and forth like a ship caught in the roaring 40's, (yes, I am a nautical buff...) The possibility of this truth scares and excites me all at the same time, so here I am, hoping to work out some of my puzzle pieces. Anyone else here finding themselves at a later age dealing with this or something like this? Thanks! :confused:

    Hey, welcome to the site =)

    I'm afraid I'm only 21, but I can certainly relate to your feelings of gender confusion. There are many other's on this site who certainly can as well. I think you came to the right place if you are looking to find out more about yourself. Good luck figuring it all out =) I know it can be complicated.

    It's wonderful to have you on board, welcome to the EC crew :slight_smile:

    You'll find many transgender members on here, as well as more mature members of our community. Stick around, I hope you enjoy it here!

    Hello! How's it going?

    As Rosina said, there a lot of transgender members here at EC as well as older members. Hope you find the community useful and supportive.

    Best,

    Faustus.
