Hi Everyone

My name is Kaitlyn, but you can also call me Kat or Allison (my middle name). I really am fine with being called any of those, your pick. I kinda wish you would pick one of the other two actually since no one ever uses those.

 

Two years ago I discovered I was asexual and aromantic and shortly after transgender. I already knew how I felt about all of this so it wasn't like I didn't know my feelings toward sex, romance, and my gender. I just didn't know the words for them or that there were others like me. 

 

I started on hormones a little over a year ago and now I am currently trying to choose a surgeon for bottom surgery. I am hoping to get that done around late spring 2019 or late spring 2020. I would like to get it done sooner but those are the best times to do it and still go to college and get a PhD in psychology. I am still working on my bachelor's right now.

 

The main reason I came here is that as you might have saw in my profile I am panromantic even though above I said aromantic. It changed after I started hormones. I think that was due to my depression lifting and being happier with myself and my body. Now I am questioning my sexuality too. I know it's currently asexual, but I feel like maybe my dysphoria toward what I plan on getting rid of with surgery is playing a role in my sexuality. I feel like maybe if I had surgery and I was actually happy with what I had I would be more open to having sex and maybe my sexuality would change somehow. 

I am hoping to talk with people on here and try to figure some things out.

Welcome. Take your time to go through your transition before forcing any labels onto yourself. Don't rush things. Make some headway with your PHD and get the surgery before concluding anything about yourself. It's only after you feel like you are the you that you want to be that you can truely analyse how you feel. 

Have some cake!
