I'm going to be upfront: I've never contributed to a blog or had much practice writing like this. This will probably become more and more obvious the more I write, so bear with me.
My name is Adam. I'm a 21-year-old pre-everything (for now) trans boy going to school in western NY. I'm majoring in a computing field and I am a freelance web developer. I love animals, and I'm currently raising my puppy to participate in several different dog sports and to be a therapy dog.
Only recently, and with the support and feeling of safety and comfort I get from my partner, have I come out both to myself and a small group of friends. I haven't told my family, nor do I plan to for quite a while or until I make more concrete plans for transitioning. I participate in my college's trans support group and am starting counseling soon to discuss transitioning, among other things.
I'm excited to contribute to this blog both because I've never done it and because this is something I want to educate people about. I'll likely be posting a lot of personal experience entries from my childhood as well as from my possible impending transition. So I hope you enjoy, and feel free to ask me any questions.

Introductions Are In Order
I'm really better off hitting the ground running with content than I am at introducing myself, but I will try.
My name is Alex, I'm 25 years old and I live in upstate New York. I'm bisexual in orientation and land somewhere between male, transgendered, gender queer, and gender fluid. I'm not sure yet and every label I see seems inadequate. I'm also an active participant in Bondage, Domination, Sadism, and Masochism, but more on that later.
As my partner (more on her later as well) and I become more active in the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgendered communities, we realized that we're no longer comfortable simply talking about the things that annoy us and the ways that certain groups in this country hold us and our friends back. That's why we're here, to do something beyond that sitting around.
While the primary focus here is on LGBT issues and the LGBT community, the topics will no doubt delve into BDSM and sexuality in general, as well as into our personal lives. I look forward not only to posting with her, but to being able to focus what is probably the single most important aspect to each of our lives.
