I had a pretty crappy night but on the bright side when i went to dinner tonight I worked up the courage to use the mens room. I went in and came out no problem and there were actually other guys in there and I thought they knew for sure but one man bumped into me and said "oh sorry son" It was so awesome I might try it again. I'de say I'm making so progress because I know another ftm and he won't even go near the mens room he just waits till he gets home. :D

That's awesome! Way to go! I'd be scared to death to use the men's room like I am now. Someday though...

Awesome dude! Yeah, I'd say that's a pretty big step. I'm still too scared to use the men's room even though I pass most of the time. It creates some interesting situations in the women's room, let me tell you. :rolleyes:

hey, that's great Draik. Sadly, I'm currently not passing enough to consider using a public men's room. However, I do always pause before I go into the women's room and contemplate the men's room door because I would like to go in there...

hey congrats! :D the first time you use the men's room is always a little scary...first time i tried it i was so nervous about accidentaly bumping into someone or seeing something that i ended up almost pushing somebody into the urinal :blush:

I've mastered the stp but don't think I'm ready for urinals yet, but I may pass enough to walk confidently in, and stp in a stall. It still takes a minute to make sure the stp is in the right position so I don't make a mess. And why are stp devices so PINK??????? Like that's realistic. Anyway...maybe soon I too will use the men's room.

(work has unisex bathrooms and I'm home most of the time, so it might be in a store or restaurant where I try it)

Cool man!! I don't use the men's room either - I opt for the unisex one or I go at home. If I absolutely have to go, I go to the nearest, which has been the women's every time so far. One day, in a few short months, I will be using the men's regularly

I refuse to use a women's bathroom. I pass so well that I always get screamed at if I do. I go in the men's room, and even sit to pee. Nobody says anything 'cause face it... cismen have to sit sometimes to take a poo. Although, the first time I went in a men's room that wasn't a single-unit-with-locking-door, it was nerve-wracking.

      Feeling starting to integrate true self.

      Interest is an emotion that piques an individual's curiosity, motivating them to approach novel, complex, but not necessarily pleasant stimuli

      Hello we are The lake. So called because This One has not determined a name for oneself but has in a way created an environment to try out multiple names as different people. Currently Some of us use she/her pronouns and one uses he/him. We hope to learn more about being transgender and the intricacies involved. Once again it is a pleasure to make your acquaintance and we hope to be of further help in the future.

      https://www.nbcnews.com/nbc-out/out-politics-and-policy/18-states-sue-biden-administration-transgender-worker-protections-rcna152239     When the R's are in power they love having the EEOC promulgate rules favoring employers.  But when the D's are in power, they just hate it when the EEOC makes or enforces rules that favor employee rights; most especially trans employee rights.  Then it becomes "government overreach."  Funny how that works out.    Carolyn Marie

      Wholeheartedly agree.  Whether a compliment is backhand or forehand, I take it gladly.  They are offered rarely enough these days.    Carolyn Marie

      Wow, a shop that actually respects a customer's truck?  That seems like a miracle!  My husband does most of his own work, because he really, REALLY hates people who mess with an interior, with grease spots or footprints.  His personal truck is old, but super clean.  And since he's the transportation manager for his company, he's pretty picky about people respecting company equipment.  "Take care of it, and it will take care of you" is the motto.  Drivers should be able to go through a DOT Level 1 inspection without worry. 
    • awkward-yet-sweet
      Literally the word means "hatred of women" and so I don't think that's quite the right description for what you encountered.  Possibly chauvinism?  Or maybe just not wanting to bother somebody he figured wasn't interested or capable of doing the job?  Who knows.   But on the other hand...be glad you're passing

      Finally found a site that gives the definition of defemination as a process of loss of feminine characteristics or continued loss of them.  Not a word I would use every day, although I can see where it would be a problem for some who value those feminine characteristics.  Yes I have seen it happen and now get the idea, and yes, not in so many words, but yes I have been up against others who do put down my femininity as being a pseudo female at the most polite and I cannot use the words hear for what it is at the worst.   Online, there is little to do about it except leave and block the people who do it and the places it happens, since it affects you much more heavily and negatively than it does the person doing it, and you need freedom from the stress.  The rules here which our "powers that be", namely the staff say we do not put up with members denying the authentic identity of other members.
