Girls, How awkward is it going back to your hometown?

[Erika1487]

Well, since i still live in the same little Ohio town (less than 400 people) I grew up in, surrounded by friends and family, it has not been bad. There are two exceptions though.... Firstly. In my particlar case living as a man for 30+ years. in the same small town your bound to have a long history and many deep personal connections with folks in town. Many of which have chosen to discontinue our friendship or has become very publicly awkward. Secondly, although I have the support of my family and close friends. I live in a very conservative area. Which at times puts a severe strain on those relationships. Overall I would say my hometown is far from perfect, but not bad.

What town are you in. My partner is from Salem. I've been back there a few times and folks seemed pretty nutty to a bay area lefty.

This is interesting, even though I have no personal insight into this topic a friend of mine used to be a cop and one of his long time cop buddies one day surprised him after a few years and it was because he had transitioned. It was crazy! The guy was the exact same person, but the look was completely different. To say the least the cops in the station didn't handle it well, but I feel it is all about the confidence.

Lov it, San Fran is so accepting.

I didn't put down real roots in my hometown anyway. I ran away in my early teems. Not many would remember me. I live a few miles from there now actually, and have a mostly stealth existence. Other than the guys I date and my family, no one knows.

Why did you choose to move back close to your family?

[LibertyHarkness]

no probs for me , i just moved back home with parents ....while i am saving up for final tweaks of surgeries and my new flat for later in year ..

I moved out of london simply as got busted with my flatmate for escorting together and techincally running a brothel .. so just made sense to leave london now anyway as its a shithole ...

I have had no problems in my town in surrey ..and my ex gf made a big song and dance a few years back when i started transition but noone actually gave a fuck ..

[mathematics1900]

i started transition but noone actually gave a fuck ..

Ouch, no one was happy for you?

[Brandi Boots]

I have not been back to my little hometown of 1,200 people....but I doubt it would go over well.

I am glad to hear things have worked out for you Nicole. I am trying to be 'stealth', but being an ex-poltical figure in small town Ohio makes it next to impossible.

[Nicole Dupre]

Why did you choose to move back close to your family?
I have a great relationship with them. We're close.

[LibertyHarkness]

i am super close to my parents and my family ...my dad is boss fun ..we build shit together, have a movie night once a week and a few beers :)

since transitioning i am now closer to my family than i was before ..i get on better with my brother much more now as well.

I didn't think you could get busted for escorting? Also didn't think escorting was running a brothel. Were you setup?

[tommy001]

yes i am but my dad keeps stealing all my panties!!!!

Thought you never wore any lol

[LibertyHarkness]

no escorting is legal .. but its illegal for 2 working girls to live/work together as that is what constitutes a brothel in the uk .

[tommy001]

I never knew that. They must have been watching you too.

[LibertyHarkness]

they watch all the escort sites . just so happens they clocked my flatmates website/adverts with me on it ..

[tommy001]

Looks like they had everything planned. So what happens now?

[LibertyHarkness]

nothing happens .. they just told us to stop ...

we told them i was moving out anyway so that was fine.. just means all the time i live with my friend neither of us can do incalls ...

but as i am stopped doign incalls at the london flat ...i move back to surrey fully next week anyway .. so its all good

[LibertyHarkness]

[MrsKellyPierce]

I'm loved in my hometown so not awkward

[SammiValentine]

they wont be arsed after olypmics again anyway.

[MrsKellyPierce]

What a silly catch 22 Libby

[tommy001]

Girls moving back to your hometown, whats the strangest thing that you can remember happening to you. Just to know what i mean, say for instance like someone you would never have thought wanting into your knickers knowing your a trans girl. Anything like that ever happen to you?

[Lindseylong]

Small town Ohio.....I can feel that target burning a hole in my back every time I am near the city line. I feel like I am the most hated person every time I go back...

Sorry to hear that it is not a welcoming place but I wish you the brightest in your future, lovely.

[amberskyi]

Do you miss D.C. at all?

[KittyPride]

In the time I needed to transition the people were pretty homophobic in my home town... so I escaped it and moved to the big city.
Nowadays because of the Islam large areas in big city's have become extremely trans and gay unfriendly... while my hometown would now be a very peacefull and accepting place to live....I might just be able to live there now and even be supported by the people there... moreso... then in the city...
Odd.
But I am attached to the city I live now... It has become my new home.

My parents always tell me that people are very kind and interested in how I am doing. I may even have more friends in my hometown then anywhere else :D

[mathematics1900]

Probably because by seeing you those people might realize how much time they've wasted not pursing who they really are, and what they really want to do with their lives. When the way you look can point this out to people they get angry, and then two weeks later break down and cry at the realization of how much time they've squandered.


I have a great relationship with them. We're close.

I see now, one of the lucky ones...or was it hard work getting that close?


i am super close to my parents and my family ...my dad is boss fun ..we build shit together, have a movie night once a week and a few beers

That is crazy, I am actually jealous hearing this story, lol.

I always feel like this type of stress and anxiety is probably one of the biggest factors in America today as to why we're all so unhappy. I also feel like a lot more people share this sentiment than most realize. It seems like fat kids, ugly kids, black kids, poor kids, gay kids, tgirls, all feel this to some extent. To think people feel that on a near daily basis, makes me so sad!

Some girls get so used to the harassment, they fall for the first guy who threats them human.

I suppose I'm lucky. But they wouldn't speak to me for about 9 months when I told them I was transitioning permanently. They could accept that I was a gay boy, but being a woman was pushing it in their opinion. They were used to me being a flamboyant faggot who dressed like a girl in public. They saw that my whole life basically, as difficult as even that was for them. But they thought I really lost my marbles when I said I was gettiung tits for about 9 months. It took a good 9 months for them to get over the shock that I was not going to be their gay son any longer, and that I was becoming their daughter. Even my tattoos didn't jar them like that did. My shrink said that "They weren't prepared to mourn their son, and gain a daughter." I guess that was true. But they eventually did. They never wanted to know the details of being a sex worker, so I didn't rub it in their faces. But they knew me to always have a job so they knew I wasn't being a lazy flake. lol And all the flamboyant fagginess is gone now anyway. I actually live in the middle class suburbs now. No more mohawks and shit. lol

Do you feel that being a provider is just an easier business to feel comfortable in versus having to go do retail at Old Navy? Your family seems pretty understanding then, lol. How long have you been speaking with a professional?

[TSMichelleAustin]

I dont feel awkward... I went back and lived there for a year years after I transitioned. No one knew or said anything. I got more looks for being a lady in the south with exposed tattoos, thats more looked down upon then if I am a ts or not. LOL

But I have a very supportive family and even when my youngest sister has called me by my birth name, people just think I was named a boy name! LOL I enjoy going back and love seeing my friends from school! Most are all supportive! But I couldnt live there again, too boring for me! LOL

I must admit that is pretty badass! If you don't mind me asking where do you originate from?

More common now a days u see girls named boy names like Ryan, etc. LOL

I am from a small town outside Houston. Its not so small anymore, its getting so much bigger than when I was a kid.

I'm not a provider anymore. I have a good job these days, and don't need to be a provider anymore. I stopped in June of '11. I work with the public constantly. y website can eventually come down for all I care. There's no longer any decent money in TS porn. I'm not punching a clock to cam either. I make plenty doing a real job, so why bother?

But even when I was a provider, I worked part time, 21 hrs a week, at Starbucks for the medical benefits. lol My ego is not that inflated. Being a provider is like babysitting after a while. You just get your dick sucked by the over-grown children you're watching. lol

.... "Old Navy"? lol

Oh, and I went to a shrink for 2 years before I started 'mones, just to make sure I wasn't doing it with fucked up, buried motivations.

Haha, this is so true. So does that mean you are a fan of NASA?

No not really! Went there once in my life and i was like 10.

So what are all those randy IOC members going to do for sex while they're here?
