Hey Forumities

I have been around on the forums for a while now, so some of you may know my story already. I identify as a transgender woman, use they/them pronouns and am bisexual. My journey started later in life, and I socially transitioned in November 2023 after taking HRT for several years. I just love how my life has changed for the better and how I have grown and developed since I transitioned. It’s truly been life-changing, and it’s soooo good living as my authentic self ⚧️

So, for Week 3 of Pride Month 2025, I wanted to open a discussion about recognising people who are trans and gender diverse (TGD) in the LGBTIQA+ community and spaces where we are celebrated and welcomed with open arms. We all live in different parts of the country, some in cities and some regionally, and rurally, so let’s put our collective minds together and celebrate our spaces!!

Where have you been as a person who identifies as TGD where you felt welcome?

Where have you seen flags, stickers and posters welcoming people who are TGD into spaces?

Remember to post within the Guidelines 🙂

I know of some spaces, so let’s start the discussion with these:

• Inner West Pride Centre – NSW https://twenty10.org.au/about/iwpc/
• Qtopia – NSW https://qtopiasydney.com.au/
• Victorian Pride Centre – Vic https://pridecentre.org.au/

Let’s celebrate our diversity and be as visible as we feel comfortable 🏳️‍⚧️
