This month I want to go to the LGBT Assembly on campus. I think I'll introduce myself as my male nickname, but I'm unsure what to say I am, because even though I know I'm an androgyne, I don't know how exactly I want to be perceived for the rest of my life... like what marker I want on my driver's license... but I'm tempted to just say I'm male, because I think I would prefer that than to be perceived female (though the campus's lack of gender neutral bathrooms, including where the assembly will be held, isn't cool). Or at the very least, I could see how that goes, since I'm used to hanging around all my friends that perceive me female, and it'd be nice to be perceived... not female.

Maybe if I'm lucky they just won't ask. At least, not directly. I don't know. It's just, I have a chance to introduce myself to people without the influence of any previous friends or family, so it's like a fresh start, but I don't know how to start. Kind of nervous about it all.

I'd really like to actually talk to some people, maybe get involved with LGBTQIAP events... instead of just... wandering around in the background like I tend to do in new and unfamiliar situations... =(

^_^ Sounds like the perfect opportunity to find out a little more about yourself. If you identify to them as androgyne, the door's still open to identify as male, if that would make you more comfortable. Either way, I hope you find where and how you're comfortable with other people.

JJ, you were overdue for a day like that. Hope they continue!

Am anxious about meeting a new doctor today and asking about HRT. Would at least like to get started on Spiro as my BP is still up, even with the med I have been taking.

Huggs all!

Thank you Micha! No Spiro yet, my BP decided to be fairly close to normal today. Did find a pretty sympathetic doctor today, but that is as about as far as it went.

Next week I may know more. Breathe in, breathe out, relax....

Just wanted to say Hi to everybody. It feels funny when I'm away even for a morning!

Dee Jay-I just bought probably 7 or 8 dozen huge mature moss rose plants for around my pond for $1.00 total and a couple of mature coxcombs for 1/2 that-I love bargains. They will be perfect for around the koi ponds!

I also got my first pairs of boxers!:D I'm inching down that road.

OMG! I'd LOVE to come and help you plant all of those moss roses...

But, you're on your own with the boxers.... :P

LOVE YOU!

Dee Jay

Please do come help me plant!!

I looked at the size on the boxers wrong but they're the plaid kind and are apparently in style for girls as shorts-so my daughter is thrilled and wearing them w/ a long t-shirt as I type.

But I also found some bargain men's t-shirts and polos -and a pair of unisex Dr martins so I'm still a happy camper:D

not to mention we hit the farmer's market and will have fried green tomatoes and some baked okra for supper. A man there was so charmed by my granddaughter he insisted on giving her a watermelon! Wouldn't let us pay for it. That kind of thing used to happen all the time-in stores, restaurants, etc. but hasn't as much the past year or so. She has this charisma-kind of scary in a way.

And I had a half a big old honeydew melon for lunch.

Life is good today!!

Love you too!

Watch out for those thorns on those rose bushes!

Huggs and Hugs,

Opal

The thing about moss roses is there aren't any thorns and they like heat and don't have to be watered!

They're usually $5-$7 a plant here and I got probably 80 or more for $1. A once in a lifetime plant bargain I just stumbled onto where someone had just brought them in to the hospital auxiliary.

Not where I got the boxers-but they did have the new Dr Martins and tons of clothes just in for the whole family.

Some days just work and make up for the others when you want to turn off the phone and hide under the bed

I'm tired of being the good guy.

The guy people think is respectable and a good person.

Because I'm tired.

And I'm feeling short tempered and angry.

Nobody is ever really "the good guy" that way.

It's too big a burden to carry. You have the right to be angry, to make mistakes -to be human.

I believe from what I have seen here you have a wealth of wonderful qualities and are a very decent-and yes intrinsically good person-but I know because you are human you also have flaws and faults and are entitled to them.

You have the right to express that anger-short of harming someone else or yourself. In fact it's more than a right-it's an imperative because unexpressed anger will get you eventually and harm you.

So snap at a few people who will understand when you're sorry later and get some rest if you can The world is certainly a much darker place when you are tired.

Uh, ok, so i went out a limb and asked my long time best friend to be my girl just now.

Long story short, we kinda had somethin a couple years ago, i had to move. been kinda ehhh... since.

She wont come straight out and tell me if she wants it to go any father than what it is, although i feel like we both know there is more to it.

I made the mistake of hurting her one time too many (which was the 1st time), and i think she is just scared to put down those walls and give it a shot.

Idk what came over me just now. but i told her give me a straight answer tonight and i wont ask no more.

so wish me luck.

      Good afternoon M.A.   Welcome to Transgender Pulse Forums, I think you'll find that there are a lot of us who had their first therapist reconsidering our story and recommended us to gender or LGBTQIA specific therapist. I made my first therapist cry after asking me what was my worst experience or memory. She was not prepared for the can of worms I brought to the couch. My second therapist is a gem, she's my age and knows how to work with my thoughts.    My two kids were also involved in the arts programs in school one in theater, the other combined art and modern music.   Best wishes, stay positive, and motivated,    Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      Welcome.   This can be a good sounding board and a place to say things you otherwise could not. Be yourself. Find out what that is.   Abby
    • Abigail Genevieve
      I'm wearing a white t shirt and jeans.  The t-shirt is softer than a man's and slightly girly.  Feeling kinda pretty.
    • Abigail Genevieve
      That's very common in internet forums and it is hard not to take it personally sometimes.   You might post "bump" with a smiley face to bring it to the top of the stack, or you might use the @ feature if there are certain people you would really like to have comment on it, and say something like Dear Abby, I would really like your input on this.  Please take a minute and respond.  Thanks!!!

      The same for me... That's exactly were MmIndy came from. I started choosing female skins as soon as they became available in the few games I played.   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      Something else I noticed @Ladypcnj Since I use the Unread tab, I don't see threads I've read again until someone replies to it, or the author adds something.   Hugs,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋
    • Mmindy
      Good morning @Ladypcnj   Some posts get lost in the busy times here. It also maters how people navigate the site. Some only look at their notifications, or tap the All Activity tab which shows them thread they've commented on. (how I see it)... I on the other hand use the Unread tag under Activity. I don't think people ignore post as much as they get caught up reading threads they've already been active in.   Best wishes, stay positive, and motivated,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋
    • Ladypcnj
      What to do if post is being ignored? 
    • Ivy
      LOL.  I have done this more than once.

      Thank you for everything you do, @Petra Jane & great thanks to the generosity of The Breast Form Store! It is a pleasure to contribute & I hope many others will as well. Bless you.
