Hey everyone I'm new here! Hoping to make new acquaintances in a space I feel comfortable with; while gaining the courage and confidence to fully come out to my family and friends. Hope everyone is well and thank you!!
SariahMichelle.....Hello and a great big LGBTQIA+ welcome to Empty Closets! There are a number of sub-forums here on EC...why don't you check them out and then feel free to join in the conversations! In particular there is a sub-forum titled “Gender Identity and Expression” if you post there I think you’ll find people who will understand what you are dealing with. This is a safe community of loving, caring and very supportive people and we will do our best to help you blend into the community. You can ask questions in any of the Sub-forums by creating a new thread or by joining in a conversation-thread that is already going. You can also post a message on anyone's Profile Page after you have made at least ten posts yourself. If you have a question that is somewhat private you can always send a Private Message to any Staff Member. Normally Private Messages can only be exchanged between two Full Members, but a PM to a Staff Member is an exception. Also...you might get a note about your username. Our Code of Conduct asks members not to use their names as their Avatar Username. It's just a part of our effort to protect the privacy of all of our members. If you get that notice, you'll be able to change your user name without any problems and any post (like this one) that were made under the original username will be updated to the new name. If you have any questions at all...please let me know by posting a note on my Profile Page or making a Private Message to me. We are so glad that you have found us here on Empty Closets! .....David
