Hi everyone! My name is Mila. For pretty much as long as I can remember myself, I identified with a gender different to the one I was assigned at birth. I like girls, so mentally that makes me a lesbian I guess. I am out to barely anyone as of today - only my SO knows. She is tolerating it so far, but obviously she's not over the moon with this. I know that the scariest word for her right now would be "transition", so I am pre-HRT. I tried to come out to my mum, but right from the get go she was shocked and not very receptive, so I pretty much had to brush it off half way through my speech. She never brought it up since... Every now and then I think of telling more people I know, but the timing is never right. I really love sports, going to the movies, hanging out with my family and friends, gaming, and travelling. There are couple of reasons why I decided to join: (1) I really want to make some friends here, (2) provide some advice and support for anyone seeking it on these forums. Anything longer than this probably qualifies as TLDR, so I'll see you around the forums! Take care, Mila
Benvenuta! I'm italian so whenever you want we can speak in this language xD I love movies and travelling as well even if I've never been out of Europe yet. I'm sorry for your mum, my one is similar so I can imagine how you feel, but if you need someone to talk to this is the right place!
Hi Mila! Welcome to EC. I'm still relatively new myself but everyone's really nice and you'll love it here.
