Have you ever wanted something, but never knew you wanted it? These past months, I've been on DeviantArt. My username is KTG2. After looking at a number of Transgender captions, I've come to realize, it is more than a kink. I want that for myself. I want to be female. I feel like a lesbian in a straight male's body. I never felt that strong about myself as a male. Most of my life, I never gave it any serious thought, so I didn't realize it all until recently.

I am Ashley.

Cool that you managed to come to understand yourself better.
I myself have managed to find a lot of great places to learn about trans identity or gender queer.

Hi Ashley.

There are now places and employers that accept transgenders. Much different than when I was a kid, when even gays weren't accepted in most places.

Welcome, Ashley!! !

Congratulations for finding/knowing yourself!

It's said that AS folks are change adverse --- I would amend that to say it may be very hard, but some of us crave and need change!

Wishing you well as you navigate this discovery and alignment.

I don't know. So far I've only given myself a Female name. I am still male in body, but female in mind.

A picture with a caption for dialogue. In this case, it is about Transgender.

The next step? I don't know.

Congratulations Sister Ashley!

I will admit that I still get "transman" and "transwoman" confused, so I am sorry if this post offends you.

@ Ashley: Maybe you could ask the mods to let you start a new account under your new identity ... ?

Would that be helpful?
