Politics
Discussion forum for political topics, both general and specific to the transgender community.
This is a forum that is non-biased/non-partisan and treats every persons position on topics equally. This forum is not aligned to any political party. In today's politics, many ideas are split between and even within all the political parties. Often we find ourselves agreeing on one platform but some topics break our mold. We are here to discuss them in a civil political debate.

Did they provide a diagnosis, follow-up treatment, medicine? I agree with Vicky, that it seems like they treated you well, which is great. Carolyn Marie -

The way things are going, this country won't be recognizable in two years, nor will we have a Constitution that means a damn. The admin is already trying to impeach any judge that dares disagree with him. Carolyn Marie -

I love the lighter nights and warmer weather, its a great time to start outdoor hiking and our usual yearly walks, I am going to have to watch my weight, i am 59kg my average tends to be around 62 kg if i can stay around 59 kg i am not too much bothered. but spring is a time of planting up flowers on my balcony and attending my hanging baskets, Mia loves the cat mint and loves to watch the butterflies. -

I love doing exercise, more so in the summer, i can be quiet strict with my diet, i do eat red meat and potatoes, its about finding out what works for you and being realistic. When i first started on hormones i had my weight checked by the endocrinologist at hospital every three months. I tend to worry a lot too so that might be one reason why i do not gain weight easily. when i go on very long walks say around 30 miles friends will say have your brought anything to eat? i never did only bottles of water to keep me going. -

I have my passport, but I'm afraid to try to use it. It sounds like it might get confiscated. But I don't really have anywhere to go anyway. -

@montyone I was stationed at RAF Mildenhall from April 2004 to April 2007. It was fun. -

Thank you MaeBe for always being there. I really do appreciate you. I hope things are going better for you and family. Thank you HeatherK I will tell him you said happy birthday. montyone well I can talk with you. I'll try to make it a habit to check the forums more often. I just have a lot going on. As you can tell by my post count, I was very active. I have kids two boys and doing house renovations on top of it. Getting a new floor put in because I have only had concrete for a while because the HVAC flooded the floors and of course the laminate wasn't waterproof. What I selected now is plus I love the look better on this. I'll post a picture. -

Exactly. This was the rationale used to prohibit LGBTQ+ people from the military in the first place, back in the last century. They said it wasn't being gay itself that made you ineligible, it was the fact that you had to hide it, thus making you vulnerable to foreign blackmail. And of course, the reason they had to hide it was because they'd boot you out if they found out. Total circular reasoning. -

We did yoga at ballet school it was the first lesson of the day starting at six in the morning. Yoga is important to ballet because its about mind, some of the exercises in ballet could be really painful, part of yoga was about pain management and working through the point of pain. If you thought about it you would tense up and that would make it worse. The butterfly pose or a variation of it was to have someone stand on your knees and push them flat down to the ground, a teacher would then go behind and pull your body back until your head touched the ground. Never do this pose it has to be supervised and is usually done once the body is warmed up and your mentally relaxed. Once you manage to relax the teacher would lift your head your partner stopped standing on your knees and the teacher would then pull you forwards by holding your hands until your face touched the floor, the teacher would say relax and work through the point of pain.The important part is to keep your knees to the floor, so, why do they teach this for classical ballet? well its because we turn out our legs, eg first and second position, fourth open fourth closed and fifth, known other wise as positions of the feet. -

They're arguing they're not targeting trans people, just people who have or have ever had gender dysphoria. Really? Draw a Venn diagram. One circle is trans people, another circle is those with a diagnosis of g.d. The intersection is nonempty. So is the section containing trans ppl who never had g.d., albeit much much much smaller. But the section containing ppl with g.d. who aren't trans? Although... imagining such an assessment became mandatory for all military personnel (talk about a waste of resources), my guess is it would reveal more about the spectrum of gender incongruence than they bargained for. Just sayin. This is something I think more people should be aware of: If common mental health issues are labeled ‘incompatible’ with service, advocates fear troops will ‘go underground’ https://taskandpurpose.com/military-life/executive-order-mental-health-troops/
