    Hi everyone.
    Ive wanted to make this for a long time and after amazing news im doing it.
    At around the age of 11 , I realised that i wasnt like other boys.
    I felt like i wasnt in the right body.
    My parents told me it was just me growing up.
    It was at the age of 13 I discovered i was a transgender female, it was hard for me at school.
    I had not much friends , ate alone at lunch, boys and girls picking on me for being "weird".
    I graduated from hight school normaly.
    At the age of 22 I told my parents I was transgende , it wasnt a good idea.
    They kicked me out of the house, saying i was a "sin" a "fag", loads of things.
    At the time , I had my lovely boyfriend keeping me company , his parents let me live with them for a while, I will never forget what they did for me.
    I got a job , bought an apartment , got a cat.
    So now, present day, I live with my boyfriend and my cat, have a job.
    And just recently the best news i could ask for.
    I got a phone call from my doctor saying I could start taking estrogen.
    All this time ive been playing on SGMOD, it really made me more confident, for this i thank every single one of you for letting have a great time here.
    I meeted great people that helped me, understanded me, and most of all , accepted me.

    I would like to mention @Red Kent, he has been so nice to me ,he helped me express myself , not be affraid and he was someone that was pround of me.

    Thank you so much.

    It's really nice to hear stories like that, so kudos to you for having the bravery to write one.

    I'm glad that SGmod has been a place of acceptance and confidence for you, and it's really nice to see that take form. After all, being a place for people to have a good time is central to what we do.

    Makes me happy to see people who have truly found themselves, but also sad to see what hardships you've endured because of it.

    I came out as gay last year and I've fortunately not experienced any discrimination so far. We're in a somewhat similar boat so don't be a stranger and talk to me if you need or want someone to talk to! Hope to see you on the servers soon!

    That's probably one of the hardest things to do for anyone that's apart of the LGBT community, I've known and are friends with so many of them that haven't come out yet and it's one of the saddest things I've had to witness and I'm glad that you were able to do so, even thought it probably destroyed you to be rejected by the ones you held so close to your own heart. However now you're able to begin growing as an individual again and for that I am proud of you. Stay positive.

    SGM has, for various reasons, been a beacon around which LGBT folks in GMod have congregated. Just off the top of my head, I can think of over thirty of us. I've always admired SGM for that attitude- yeah, you get a lot of random trolls that will try to bust your balls over it, but by and large the place is pretty awesome and understanding.

    You're definitely not alone here.

    You've probably figured it out by now, but there's plenty of friendly faces around here who support decisions like this, and we're always happy to be there for you. It's why I'm glad I showed up here. Just about everyone's accepting and supportive, they won't judge you for being you. I'm transgendered, too, and I'm never afraid to say it here.

    It's these kind of stories that make me love this community more and more.

    I'm honestly so glad that you could find a community, or even a family, to be here for you. Who have helped you get more confident within yourself and have provided you with a safe place to spend time in. Who have accepted you for you. This community has always been home to me, everyone family and I am glad that you too can experience that.

    Stay strong okay? I am honestly so glad to hear that things are looking up and hey! If you ever need someone to talk to, like ever, about anything (and I mean literally anything) I am always here for you. Just hit me up on steam or something :3

    :love:
