I just want to share my experiences with people and hear their similar stories of how they came out to their friends and families, how their life changed after and so on. I’m a transperson myself, finding my people here would be really cool.

@chadrics well, some of them can be touchy and i feel like maybe i should put some space between us? or maybe it is just my imagination

Thank you Lady Di. And what’s awkward about interacting with your lesbian friends?

@lady1993 yeah it can be uncomfortable, and I know how it isnt easy to let them know that. Perhaps you’re right about that decision of setting a barrier. Or telling them straight up about the stuff that makes uncomfortable to hang out with them. They should be able to feel it.

Welcome to the site I don't know much about the transgender here in India . I have just seen them in traffic signals asking people to give money, they actually don't beg but force people to give money otherwise they start abusing them. I don't know why they do that when in today's time they are treated better than they were used to in the past. Now there are politicians, teachers who are transgender and are seen respectfully.

Hi, welcome to mylot..I am not sure if there are any transgenders here on mylot..In India we have a huge population of transgenders . Earlier they were in a pitiable state having to beg or take up other means to earn. But now with the govt initiative, things are improving . There are a few politicians, models , teachers and working in govt offices as well..

@chadrics Because he is manipulating my Brother. That transgender is dominant. And how about you?

@JustBhem you didnt like him/her because of his/her attitude and not because he/she is a transgender right?. I’m in a relationship but I’m matured enough not to manipulate my partner. When there is something we both disagree with, we just have to talk it out. No one should be dominant over someone.
