Hello everyone,
I was born physically ambiguous, was raised female, had feminizing surgery as a teenager, and found out twenty years later that I am genetically XY.
Like people say, some secrets are just too good to keep.
I have spent some time tonight reading new posts, and I want to say how much it means to me that you are here - that this community exists - and that I am not alone.
Thank you Janet and Becky and everyone who has spent time making Bodies Like Ours what it is. I've spent a lot of time searching for information on the Internet, and Bodies Like Ours always stands out in my mind.
Last year I had too many unhappy things happen in too short a period of time. I was physically safe, but I needed an emotionally safe place to put things back together. I remembered Bodies Like Ours, found the names of people who could help, got Nina Williams phone number, and gave her a call. Her counseling has been invaluable to me.
Without all of you, I don't know where I would be. With you, I know I am in good company, and I'm OK.
