Well back to only one friend

Good morning everyone, I’ve been working on a few projects and my internet screen time has been very low. Today is Primary Election Day for Indian voters. I will be voting later, but the most important thing I’m looking forward to is the reduction of political advertising. Let’s get back to regular daytime advertising which reminds me of the need for hearing aids, Medicare choices, and comfortable catheters. Heaven forbid I would need an accident injury lawyer to get me the big check. Only daytime TV can take a 30 minute show from the 1980s and make it into an hour long series. I really don’t watch that much TV because I prefer to listen to music while I’m in the shop or doing yard work. The coffee is good, the morning songbirds are loud as they forage for their hatches.

I pretty much started out what some would consider as the androgynous phase of childhood puberty. Being the youngest sibling in my family, I was mostly seen wearing boy clothes at the time. As I explained earlier about my parents not showing me my birth certificate until later on in life, in the meantime before that happened, my daddy always wanted a boy/son in the family. It's been a long time, when I first started menstruating, it was a turning point in my life, followed by a series of car ride returns to the emergency room, patient profiling, and misdiagnosis. From that moment my parents had stopped saying I was going through a phase. One night at my parents' home during midnight hours, they thought I was asleep, but I saw their bedroom light was still turned on. Out of curiosity, I tip toed to their bedroom's door as I listened in on their conversations, it was the first time I heard my parents questioned about the gender marker on my birth certificate wither a hidden variation involved in my development.

Good morning weii I’ve read some good news here this morning Yes the ancient Roman symbol was used on some coins. The Mercury dime come to mind. It was showing our fighting might. Arrows and a fighting axe. I realize few people recall the Mercury dime. My 6th grade swore there was no such thing so I brought him one. He had promised a dollar if I could prove it which I did. Then he tried to Welch on the bet. The entire class got on him and he had to give me the dollar. Ah, the little things we still remember from over 60 years ago. Like today as a i was cutting a banana for my cereal I recalled my grandfather doing the same for me about 70+ years ago. well instead of a 9 hour day I have an 8 hour day scheduled then there is that stay a little longer to do X.

EXCELLENT!

Welcome to the forums, M.A. Duh . . . more questions came up for me,too--but I'm finding they don't have to be solved all at once. One thing at a time as I ask for help works for me. Keep coming back. —Davie

Good news is that I have nothing serious going on. The blood was coming from internal hemorrhoids, and the doctor says it's from the "typical American diet." Too much fat and carbs but not enough plant based fiber. A few other things were noted and biopsies on them for safety sake. Hospital visit was grand with "most" of the staff addressing me as female. I did have "bra talk" with one of the CNA's. Even my discharged papers use my preferred name on them (Birdie). So basically, adding more fiber to my diet will eliminate my internal hemorrhoids as well as lower my risk for cancer.

Thank you Kay

For that part, be glad you live in MS and not in CA or some other "paradise." Unfortunately, right now in the USA it is about choices. Choose to live in a mostly free state that doesn't want my gender to exist, or choose to live in a leftist place that accepts my gender but not my family or my faith, or how I want to live my life or the stuff I own. As for the lawsuits... hiring a lawyer costs money. And a "no fees unless you win" attorney probably won't take a case like this, as it is difficult to get money from folks who often don't have anything. As they say, "it is hard to get blood from a turnip."

There's a couple of things. First, since so many LGBTQ+ folks often vote Democrat, it is simply assumed that "LGBTQ = Democrat." And to many, Democrat = enemy. The fact that some of us don't vote for Democrats comes as a surprise to many. You wouldn't believe how many different times I have had to explain how I vote, that I don't like Biden, etc... And then, there's the flamboyant, over-the-top appearance and behavior of some. When average folks see strange dress, wild colors, and the occasional provocative behavior in the news, they assume that it is the norm and that all LGBTQ+ folks are like that. To them, "LGBTQ = weird." I think that @Abigail Genevieve is right, part of it is lousy marketing. And that will take a ton of undoing, because it has been going on for years.
