Thats really a question that is posed on so many forums, and everyone has good points to make as is evident here. As for myself, I never really CD'd in my life. I knew something was not quite right, and years later found had my own epiphany. I have been on HRT for 6 months now, however I dont say I am a woman, or trangender, or non binary, on genderfluid. I am just me, no one can give you a label except yourself. People may label you, or misgender you, but the only person that matters is you. My goal will ultimately be to become a woman. But there are many stops between here and there. Talking to your therapist is a great start, just saying things aloud to another person helps. Another thought is, if your pursuing therapy to figure out if your transgender then your already on the journey. Traci Lynn -

My own experience tells me that cis-gender folk simply never think about it. As in it literally never even occurs to them to question their gender. For them it comes straight out of left field and the only reference point they think they have (which is patently false of course) is sexual. They assume we are gay or lesbian, depending. The truth is that often we are sexually ambiguous, but more importantly, sexuality has nothing to do with our gender conceptions. The other problem is that we "look" like a gender and sound like a gender, and ... have the wrong plumbing to boot. It took me a while to get past it all, and I AM transgender! -

This is exactly what happened to me. My partner and I got married on Feb 29. I had been in touch with my ex gf in Vegas back last XMAS. She bought us 2 nights in Vegas for wedding present. Before she left she got me alone and asked me, "What benefit do you have changing everything why not just be gay? I would understand that..!" My answer was this, "a functioning vagina." She we silent. LoL -

Just had to do the update today rather than Tuesday because things keep reminding me of the virus which makes me worried again but so far nothing has happened to me but from what I know symptoms can happen in 5 days or more so we’ll still see if I do have it or not but I’m guessing I don’t -

Wow that’s ridiculous people just need to learn to do there job and go home. There is one thing I don’t deal with at work is drama. I pretty gave myself the name crabby I just act crabby around certain people and they avoid me it usually works most of the time. It’s sad I have to do that if not I will lose what is left of my sanity. My old version as pretty much a loner but Emily is a little more social able. -

Well, so far the United Kingdom & Canada have reported, and their perspectives are always interesting. However, I must confess that I was hoping for an American response, as well. 🤔 Perhaps, later? -

@michelle_kitten well said hon. Its so true. I felt an incredible weight lifted off me when I decided to come out. Even as scared as I was to loose everything I knew and love I just had to do it. I feel amazing today. -

I think for me there has been one drastic change that has come without a single surgery, which has contributed to my happiness. I am no longer living a lie. I am no longer trying to hide who i am and burning all the time and energy that goes with that. Living a lie requires work, and is stressful at times. Living authentically is a lot less stressful, and therefore frees me to be a happier person. -

Emily, you're between a rock and a hard place, no pun intended. Yeah I've been in conversations with guys that made comments about people like us that were negative what the hell is wrong with us we're not really women. The sly remarks the transphobic and homophobic slurs. I would stick up for transgendered people to a point I said hey listen if it makes them happy leave me alone are they bothering you. Sometimes I'll just sit there and listen to the rhetoric. Oh yes you do working in a male-dominated society on your back underneath of some of this heavy equipment dirt in your eyes hopefully wearing safety glasses. Currently my job has me out with pay for me making a statement over the phone I was overheard and I was just venting. Is younger guy wanted my hours for overtime ,he's already working 50 to 60 hours a pay. Overtime now but he's greedy. So he turn Me in and told them I wanted to hurt myself.I don't want to hurt myself I was just mad that I owe thousands of dollars into the federal and state this year because the government didn't take enough out of my pension. I tell my accountant I should just stick a gun to my head I can't win for losing... This was February 25th and now I'm out of work with administrative leave pay. Do I really want to go back there no. I work with a bunch of jerks and so hostile working environment. My boss allows it to happen because he's spineless and won't confront anybody.There's a couple guys that could spit in his face and kick him in the balls and he would just say bye Jules see you tomorrow. And I work in a state university in a heating plant. They don't know what to do with me if they fire me they need a reason I had to undergo a fit for duty evaluation from a state authorized psychiatrist. Yeah and I admitted to him I cross-dressed and he couldn't understand why. I told him it made me feel good he goes why. My response was why do people put on that virtual reality masks and pretender their Michael Jordan dunking the ball 10 feet in the air or driving a NASCAR why. Why do people play video games I pick up different weapons and kill people why. He mentioned to one of my counselors that he felt that I had a personality disorder. he also mentions to me that A co-worker said I was going to sabotage and blow up the heating plant on the campus of a universityI hope this University uses as a reason to let me go cuz I'm not going to have a vested pension there and the people I work with are all backstabbers and they'd fabricate stories just to make me look bad so with that said you have a situation going on.3 days after I left one of the co-worker said I want to sabotage and blow up the heating plant. Now this is a campus where students walk within 60 ft of this building ,would you consider that a terroristic threat. So I got mad I gave them the number to the FBI .I wanted them to investigate who said this and when they heard me say this. You're looking at 15 years in Federal prison for making a terroristic threat. So I told HR now I'm in fear for my welfare coming back and there they're looking into the who said it and when they heard me say it the alleged statement. So I guess we all have our issues in life. Good luck at least I'm getting paid and I'm not using my sick or vacation time. -

Alex, things happen in time, things happen for a reason, and we aren’t in much control of our lives or anyone else’s life for that matter but we do get to make decisions about the pathway we travel. The best any of us can do is take things one day at a time... I completely understand your anxiety about the length of time, in fact we all understand that too, know that we are all behind you here and want this for you as badly as you do. Sometimes we voice our frustrations to our friends and those we love because we want to be heard... Alex I hear you, I understand you, I will be super excited when you do get those surgeries and I want to share the victory With you when it happens! Keep us all posted! Hugs, Jackie -

I had an hour-and-a-half wait time between counseling sessions before all this went down.. I went to get my nails done at a nail salon. And this girl Juliet had came in and I was dressed up as Denise. As she walked past me she smiled and looked and sat down two seats from me. I said her you realize I'm a guy don't you she goes no and I've been talking on her through messenger since. Yes it was my first time going to her house and she has a boyfriend. Yes I will take your warnings and concerns but she was pretty transparent to me about her living situation. -

I'm another oatmeal person. Usually with blueberries (frozen from jaunts to Maine) or lacking those, dried cranberries or even apples or pears thrown in. It's been a staple of my breakfast for more than twenty five years. And of course, coffee. TA -

Hello and welcome Johanna. I hope you will ask questions and find answers here. I can appreciate your situation with the female nickname, since I also had one that really bothered me for years. But my nickname was formed out of my given name and is vulgar slang for a female body part. The awakening to realize yourself as a female is something several of us share here. TA -
By KathyLauren · Posted
I am glad to see another oatmeal eater. I have oatmeal with raisins and maple syrup every morning. Lately, since my surgery, I have added prunes. Yes, they work! And toast with marmalade, and tea. I only have coffee (espresso) on Sundays.
