Hey y'all. Curious if anyone here has some tips on meeting trans / queer friends. I've recently moved back to Seattle where I grew up. Ive found though that I am exclusively surrounded by a ton of people who only ever knew me as a guy. From family to highschool friends.

They're all accepting and I still have a lot of love for them, but I would really like to meet some people I can connect with on other kinds of things. I'm surrounded too much by cis heteronormativity haha

If you figure it out, make sure to share notes. I'm in bumfuck nowhere Washington and it feels like my only bet for meeting other LGBT folk would be to clone myself.

You’d think there would be a lot of gays in bumfuck at least.

Sadly I'm not sure I can hit that high pitched of a giggle just yet.
