I don't know why I posted this - I have been pretty much living full time anyway, but yesterday I felt beautiful for the first time, I think. And it was my white tailored blouse and my floucy white skirt. I just have to express myself here.

Working at my office, I still present male mode - a joke I know, but it's 'don't ask don't tell.' I wear my girl jeans and girl loafers - but I also wear expensive white men's shirts, French cuffed - and with expensive designer jewelry. I have a theripist appointment every othe week - so I have to go from work. I take my hair down and I put on my earrings and a little lipcolor. There I am, from male mode to female mode - so simple.

But yesterday was different. I was home as had taken time off to take my wife to the doctor for some routine work. So afterward I had time to dress nicely - a bit fancier than I usually do when full time - to go see my therapist. I had an extra hour to get ready, and wasn't coming from work.

And it's spring time here.

So I selected an all white presentation - and I was able to really work on my make-up, as it was evening time, so a little more color around the eyes and on the cheeks was practical. And I washed and set my hair - opting for my natural curlyness rather than blow-drying it straight.

OH MY

My therapist said I was beautiful! When I went to the restaurant later, people noticed me in a way I had never experienced before - a way that might be called 'turning heads!." And I was NOT being noticed for the wrong reasons, I was gettin ma'amed and men were holding open doors for me.

It is something new to me. I just wanted to say to everyone here, being a pretty woman is something I NEVER thought I could achieve.

I just had to share.

I hate to tell all of you this but I saw Lizzy last night and well......

All I can say is....

She looked fabulous

and the crowning touch was the smile on her face.

I hadn't seen that smile in a very long time - I think it was in Memphis back in September, probably the last time that she had gotten so dolled up when we went out for our last dinner together.

I am inspired to put a little more work into my appearance before I go out next time - it seems to have made Lizzy feel like a new woman.

But I am not looking for a new woman - I am pretty happy with the ones that I already have! :D

Lizzy, to many more days as the beautiful woman that you have always been.

Love ya,

Sally

I am seriously bummed......

I didn't get to see you. Dang.

It already takes so very little for you to shine and with you really doing it up last night, you must of been beautiful.

And, I totally understand why men hold doors open for you and stare...it's that you ARE a woman. A strikingly beautiful woman...

And, I missed it..........

dang...

Lizzy,

Its a great feeling when all the cards fall in place and people treat you as the beautiful woman you are. I am so happy for you that you got treated with the dignity and respect that a beautiful woman deserves. Have fun playing that up...

Dazzling Lizzie,

That is a fabulous story. This is the reason I've become reasonably picky about my clothes, cosmetics, glasses, hair and everything about me. It matters.

When everything is just right, I'm pretty. I look pretty, I feel pretty and men hold doors open for me. When that happens, how can you NOT be confident and feel good? (hint--you can't not feel good).

Donna Jean and Paula both have been out with me and commented on my confidence. When you KNOW you look good, you operate differently. In your case, when your voice works good, you know it and work it. That makes you confident.

A lot of confidence lies in the preparation. You know that.

I'm so happy you've got a look that makes you a knockout. Hoooooraaaaay Lizzie!!!!!!

Easy hugs (don't wrinkle the outfit),

Becky

Thank you so much for sharing Lizzy. Some of the joy of what progress we make has to be in those bursts of progress our friends (may I presume?) experience. I just know you were radiant and gorgeous!

      I think i became much more emotional overall.  Perhaps because use a topical E i haven't had the swings that some folks feel but i can laugh  and cry so much easier, sometimes over situations i would never have seen before.  Perhaps my age has something to do with it, but i am also much more peaceful and accepting of the storm life keeps presenting.   Hugs,   Charlize

      I think the interpretation of the question is always going to provide a wide array of answers. Do I have a rich inner life? Yes! Why? Good question!   Circumstances often dictate how we feel within ourselves. I don't have to deal with work anymore and we've been jus' cruzin ever since. I don't have to fix anything, literal or otherwise. My wife and I live a relatively simple life and we are true partners, but deep inside, I'm not answerable to anyone except myself. So, how's that going? Well, since I came out to myself, which happened before I stopped working, I have felt an inner glow that was never apparent before. It is permanent now and it sustains me. How? Effed if I know! All I know is that even if I have down days, and there certainly have been a few, my heart, mind and soul are still smiling. I think it comes from a realization that I am finally happy just to be me.

      I had to look this acronym up.  That certainly has never been part of the LGBTQ community!  Politicians simply attempt to use peoples disgust to create the hate or fear they can "fight" against to win support and power.   Hugs,   Charlize

      Congrats, @April Marie on your new fur kid. As the mom to a 1 yr old fur kid. I know what you are going through. LOL.   Back to work after a good weekend. I hope that work doesn't drag my good weekend down. However, I believe it is wishful thinking. I will do the best that I can, if that is not enough. They can jump in a fing lake.   I have another week until my therapist appointment. So I hope I can make it. it seems my depression is getting worse. Can it, is there something lower that major?  Especially when dealing with work. So, I know I have to get out of there. I have put in for the parts at the local GM. Probably, be like Ford. OH, well nothing ventured nothing gained.      Hope everyone has a good day. Hugs, Kymmie

      If what you mean by defemination  is that folks are doubting or refusing to believe your feminity i'm sure others here have felt that.  I know i have in the past.  It seems to be part of the continuous attempt by some to see us all quietly hiding in the closet.   I don't fit in there anymore.   Hugs,   Charlize
    • Mirrabooka
      Yay!!! 😀 What's her name?
    • Mirrabooka
      Yep, I can see that too, especially if satire goes wrong.  I can totally understand why the uneducated hoi polloi think that gender identity and sexual preference (and now, pedophilia) are one and the same, and it weaponizes their bigotry. I touched on this in another thread recently when I asked the question whether the LGBTQIA+ umbrella was actually too inclusive and should be split, in an attempt to stop this sort of nonsense. I don't know the answer; while I think it is important for non-cis and non-het folk to band together, it leaves us wide open to attack.

      Good morning, everyone!   Sorry I've been absent so much. I truly miss the interaction with you all.    We have a new yellow Lab female puppy in the house as of Saturday so it's a challenge to find time to be here as we get her settled into a schedule, work on housebreaking and training, etc.    So, I'll check in as I can...when I can get a few minutes as she sleeps.   She slept 6 hours last night so we're making progress and we've been attentive to her schedule so no accidents in the house as of now.   She's consistently following the Sit command already - the wonder of puppy treats.    Be safe!!
    • April Marie
      New puppy. New schedule for now.

      Yeah, it is a real treat trying to combat the effects of an unwanted male puberty, or unwanted female puberty. Who will supply these kids with funding when they try to transition as adults? Insurance companies do everything they can to weasel out of paying for facial surgery, voice/speech therapy/voice surgery, and electrolysis. Not to mention the pain we all go through with these procedures that we may not have to endure as much with proper care at an early age. I cringe at what the next trans generations are going to face. The governor and his ilk, are typical of these super-majority R led states. Unless there is a huge change in the next 6 months, I am fearful of where things are heading. I feel like more bad stuff will unfold. I do not think they are done crucifying us.

      Feels like I'm walking on eggshells, when I'm the nicest, kindest hearted person anyone would hang out with.

      Cool. We had none in Boston, but my sister-in-law took this on an island near Seattle,
