hihi it's great to have new folk around here and you're no exception! :D
this is perfectly fine to post here, you don't need to worry one bit, these communities are very very broad. !mtf@lemmy.blahaj.zone is also a fun place for us transfemmes, and !trans_joy@lemmy.blahaj.zone doesn't actually require you to post any photos at all—text-only posts are super ok!
we are super glad to have helped bring you happiness, and the other kind folk here certainly are too. welcome!
iiiiiiiiiih, thank you so much !
Worried is kinda a second name for me, I’ll do my best to relax.
I love how much everyone seem to be so confident here while I just realised how difficult it can be to actually share feelings. Luv you all.
confidence takes time to built, but not as much as you may think. even then, we still ponder over our exact words so much and then make five different edits after the fact in our posts/comments. its very normal hehe
but until then we got you girl :3
