    :smilewave I'm new to the community. I'm looking for support, hoping to meet others like me. Unfortunately, until I can afford to move out, I am stuck living in the south, so finding other lgbt people is near impossible. I'm surrounded by conservative republican religious zealots who think that gay people cause and such, so I feel very, very alone. I am new to admitting to myself who I really am and I have no one to talk to about my feelings. I am struggling with dealing with all these feelings. I am pansexual and pangendered. The hardest part for me is being pangendered. I feel so disconnected to my body. I feel like I'm ins someone else's body many times, but other times it seems to fit just right. I keep thinking about gender reassignment, but since I am both male and female inside, I don't know that I would feel right in a male body either. I don't know what to do. Maybe this site can help me.:help:

    After reading the transsexual sticky post, I guess the correct term for me is actually gender fluid. Like I said, I am a bit new to this. Basically, I feel like a man most of the time, but many times I also love being a female. However, for the times I feel like a man, it is very emotionally painful for me to be stuck in this female body.
