My Wifes Surprise

Well, this weekend my wife got another surprise from me. I have been painting my toenails for several months now and just waiting for the right time to let my wife see them. I am always up early and dressed (in male mode mostly) befrore my wife gets up. This Saturday, my wife decided she wanted to know what I was hiding and why I always was dressed when she got up. I was in the shower and was almost done when she came in and stayed. I got done and just stayed in the shower for about 15 additional minutes wondering when she would go out so I could get out and get dressed. I asked her, are you almost done? She said she was putting on her make up. I knew she would be in there for a while so I waited and waited and finaly decided it was time she saw my hot pink toenails. So I opened the shower door and grabbed a towel and she turned and said, I know what you have been hiding now. She said , why are your toenails painted pink? I said, they are painted because I like them that way and besides you know how I am anyway ( she knows I am transgender). She was not happy but I sure was. No more havuing to hide my nail polish and my pretty pink toenails. She did not say any more about it the rest of the day so I took that as a good sign. I know she doesn't like it but at least she is not nagging.

Hugs,

Daphene

Hello Daphene,

Gee hun , I hope your wife comes around to you re being Trans.

Its an issue I rarely think about as I have lived alone for a while now (too long)

I have been readind your posts and it is obvious your being as diplomatic as you

can . Take hope from others here in the same position as you , seemingly if you

can persevere things will turn out ok,,,I hope so hun. Hope you are well . luv,viv :)

That is good news Daphene. At least you don't have to hide anymore.

I am in the same boat as you were. I don't let my wife see my toenails. She knows I go to get manicures and pedicures but does not know that I have my toenails painted. I am just waiting for the day she notices.

Love,

Sarah F

Honey,

It's so good to get past these things...

I've done things inch by inch so my wife can accept them...

She knows that I do my toe nails now and has known for a while...

While we watch TV on Sunday nights I do my nails and we are now way past the point of it being a problem.

So, your wife may not be that happy about it right now, at least now it's out in the open.

Good on you!

HUGGS!

Well I can understand that it is something that would take a wife a while to get used to but i don't have that problem for two reasons - my wife left long before that and my toes are too far away from these 58 year old eyes - I will have to have someone else paint them if I want them to look good.

I hope that she can accept this little step and let you enjoy your pink toenails.

Love ya,

Sally

      While the Soviet Union did not end up being the source of all evil, I believe that history has shown that Joe McCarthy generally was right. There ARE all kinds of Marxists slithering around. And if that had been dealt with firmly 75 years ago (or more) the nation wouldn't be in the shape that it's in now.    And while I generally oppose the idea of intervening in foreign affairs, the world probably would have been better off if we had taken care of issues in Russia and defeated the Bolshevik Menace back in 1919. God bless the memory of Admiral Kolchak.   Getting back to project 2025, my belief is that Republican efforts are inappropriately focused on trans folks. A minority of a minority does not wreck a nation. But it is easier to focus on trans folks because they can look like they're doing something. They don't have to address the real problems, and really they don't want to address them because they would have to address themselves.  They would also need to admit that the 50 State version of the USA cannot be saved.

      @Willow things went pretty well on Monday. I have been working on the project all week long. I've been hanging out with my husband a lot, since he said that nobody would mind because I'm working on company stuff. My work is going slowly, but it is going. Rather better than I had hoped.   I ended up waking up late this morning. After 18 months of only working on house chores, not really used to doing anything else. Actually a little bit tired

      Getting back to this… I've seen objections to Critical Race Theory, but simply "critical theory" is a new one on me.  I think we need to be "critical" about a lot of things, or at least examine why we believe what we do about them.  If they stand up under scrutiny, great.  If not perhaps we need to look at something else.   Not all socialists are Soviet Russian Communists. I have read very little Marx myself.  That kind of writing bores me quickly.  But I think there are legitimate concerns about unfettered capitalism.  There are countries that seem to do well on a mixture of capitalism and socialism.  But I am no Tankie.   The Red Scare kinda morphed into the Lavender Scare, and now we have this Transgender Scare.   The thing is, most people are scared to get to know any of the people they are scared of. I'm not scared of evangelical christians.  But I am a little scared of what they seem ready to do to me, because they are scared of me. I am not a scary person - don't want to be.  I'm just an old trans woman trying to mind my own business, and get with what's left of my life. And the 2025 project seems to be designed to make that difficult.

      My mom has been more accepting of me being trans lately and even promised i could get a binder if i pay with my own money. The preferred name is still an issue. So far my mom, close friends and brother know i identify as trans but no one else does. I recently told mr grandparents about my partner and explaines the perferred name as a nickname they prefer to have. Luckily everyone who knows is accepting but i feel like i still have so much progress to make. Started getting more uncomfortbale being reffered to as my deadname and she/her in public. My therapist is getting me a trans pin for my birthday next time I see her. I have hop but sometimes I feel like the goal is so far. HRT and top surgery are things i know i want but there has been warnings given to me about the problems that come with it from the ones that have accepted me and I trust most. Mainly from the adults in my life that know, also been getting nervous many people dont see me as a man but i also go to an all girl school. being consistenly reffered to as women has started to get to me and have had urge on several occasions to write perferred name on paper. i dont think pereffered name can go into school system due to being catholic school and for graduation diploma we have to contact the person in charge and ask. I just need some advice on what to do, I am thank ful for the advice everyone had given me, made me feel better about future and hope that I can transition but also worry about familial ties and affect. due to most f them being born in the 80's and 90's and not taking it well originally mostly based on my moms reaction. I love my family alot but how they might react is scaring me. my mom still donesnt want them to know. I know they love me but when I eventually come out and medically trasition in several years hopefully, what will happen? there are little kids in the family and I already dont see them a lot, how would their parents react? what would they say to the kids? I know my aunt would not take it well due to political belief and warnings from cousins.

      Maybe.  But they'd probably resent being required to do it.   IDK.  You have to show ID to register already.  And you have to be registered to vote.

      Hah! Woke up the Red Scare!   I’ve never read Marx. I tend to believe in the inherent goodness in people. I let their words and deeds change that. Insisting people are immoral/less than/should not exist, stripping them (or keeping them from) human rights, is an a most basic example of true evil. What evils do LGBTQ+ people present simply existing? How does the Right justify their crusade against us? What justifies the manufactured fear and loathing they spout every day about us?
