Online Trans support group?
I'm curious if others would be interested in setting an evening aside each week for a support group for us, whether MTF or FTM? (kinda like an online support group) Part of me is thinking that this might be beneficial, especially for those that don't have support groups in their own area (town too small or whatever).
If this is of interest to you, let me know here or via PM the following: - Yes/No - text chat/voice chat - password protected and limited entry/open to anyone to join (I'm thinking password protected for privacy sake)

I think this is a great idea and I would love to be involved! I am struggling to get into a local group for support (with my being so shy and having social anxiety it is hard), that any type of support group whether online or in person seems like a great idea to me!
I personally would feel more comfortable with a text chat rather then a voice chat. As far as whether it is password protected or not, I am good either way.

Voice...I'm too often times read in a different way than intended limited, but I don't understand who the 'anyone' would be (it really depends who the 'anyone' is...I don't want cisfolks involved) Dylan |

Dylan: what about male-ID'd butches?
To those reading: so far I've heard from 3 other FTMs (2 for regular chat and one for voice). Just bumping this to see if others are interested. Also, is there a time/day that would work best for people?

I would expect they would be included. I Wonder Why So Many Chatters, And Not So Many Voicers, Dylan |

And for reference for those that might be concerned about costs, Skype is a nice ***FREE*** option that I was thinking we could use for the conference (voice) portion if need be. Just need a headset or good speaker/mic combo.

Yes, great idea. I'm looking for a local group in town but not finding much here.
