Hi!

Hello everyone!

I just would like to take a minute go introduce myself. My name is Jennifer. I'm 35 years old. A transgender woman located in Arkansas. Ever since I was a small child I would, at every chance I got, try on girls clothes and play with girls clothes. As a teenager, I would secretly dress in women's clothing and I have always acted feminine in my nature. I was disgusted by my genitalia and knew that I was in the wrong body, but society labeled me as a man and I did my best to play the role.

I didn't really know much about transgender until recently. I started doing some research online and I knew this is what I have always wanted. Seeing the pictures of how hormone replacement therapy brought people just like me into their real physical shapes intrigued me. I knew that I needed to seek this out. I went to a gender therapist and within 25 minutes or so, she knew that I had gender dysphoria. I also suffer from depression and anxiety disorders related to my dysphoria. I have been seeing her for 5 months now, every week. It has recently been my time to be Jennifer, not my horrid male counterpart. But I am now starting to go into public. My good friend Darcy suggested this site to me for tips regarding my hair, dress styles, and overall presentation as a woman. I come here, as a woman in need, to find help regarding these topics. I would also love to meet people in my similar situation to confide in, find comfort in knowing I am not the only one in the world that feels this way, and the encouragement and love from others. I would like to genuinely thank you for letting me join, and I hope to be an active participant in this group for a long time.

Sincerely,

Jennifer Clark
