Okay I Don't See It

Me and the wife took the kids to a trunk or treat at her school and afterwards took the kids to Cicis for pizza. The wife took the girls to find a table and I payed for the dinner. When in line paying the lady kept saying ma'am to me. Come on I even pulled my wallet out to pay for everything and she still called me ma'am. I posted my picture from yesterday in my gallery. I labeled it 7 months. I can't see why I passed yesterday twice in male mode.

Sarah,

It is really quite simple actually, you are a woman and the world sees you that way. Your picture is very telling, in it I see a woman. No questions, no doubts, it is simply the photograph of a woman.

Your cheeks and neck and no beard do it for me for one thing. If you had fem mannerisims that would put it over the top. You even look like a girl wearing a ballcap.

Oh Sarah!

You see yourself every day, and the changes are gradual, but they are there! I guess to get technical, in the new photo verses the photo prior to HRT, your cheeks are more rounded, and your neck has really slimmed up. Plus you have nice curly hair with some bounce in it.

I believe you are finding yourself in a similar situation to what Lizzy, Dee Jay, and others have gone through. Still more or less being seen as male by those who have been conditioned over time to see you that way, yet being seen as female by others who see both the internal and external femininity you truly are.

Sarah, it is a new world for you Girl!

Huggs,

Opal

You are seeing yourself with eyes conditioned by the past. i can't find a man anywhere i that picture. The people are seeing you as a woman because you are one inside and out now!

Thanks to each of you for your replies. I still don't see how I passed but thanks anyway.

Kairi I had to laugh at your response. That was one that I would not have thought of before. Being thought of gay yeah sure but butch lesbian. :lol:

I know it's been said already, but really it's only because you're accustomed to seeing your face as a male face. I completely understand why you got ma'am.

We just met in person (you are delightful, by the way). Seriously - and I think I told you then, you make a pretty girl. I think you are feeling that in yourself, and your attitude may be projecting it. You are simply female to most people now.

It's what you want - its happening.

You will soon be 100% female by default no matter how hard you try to present male. Now you have to convince yourself you are finally there - and that takes some work. - we have been wanting it so long.

Sarah,

Your latest picture reminds me of a woman I see about once a year at a get together. You could easily be taken for her sister as you appear. I wouldn't put it quite as Kairi did, to me you look like a woman with just a few mannish features. Like any number of women I see regularly.

Hugs

      Gosh, missed Monday again.   Did you know that Producer Keith Oslen was distraught because the duo his recorded Buckingham-Nicks first album went nowhere? In walked Mick Fleetwood also distraught because once again Flleetwood Mac lost a guitarist in Bob Welsh and he was at least going studio shopping and came to Sound City in LA because he'd heard the drum sound they got there was incredible. He asked Oslen to play something recorded there. Olsen played some of Buckingham-Nicks and Fleetwood loved the sound of the guitarist and wanted Buckingham. Olsen said he comes with Nicks because Olsen managed both. Fleetwood didn't want Nicks but eventually the remaining Mac members said okay and next thing you know - the Fleetwood Mac that scored a huge following was born. Sadly right after the "Fleetwood Mac" album and before "rumours" was recorded, the band got huge headed and got rid of Oslen so they didn't have to play him a lot of music they wanted to keep. Olsen did ok after by recording Ozzy Osbourne, the Grateful Dead, Whitesnake, Pat Benatar, Heart, Santana, Saga, Foreigner, Scorpions, Journey, The Babys, Emerson, Lake & Palmer, Joe Walsh, 38 Special, and Eric Burdon & the Animals, among others. BTW - Olsen was also a members in 1967 of a band called Music Machine (not the James Taylor one) that scored a huge hit with the song "Talk Talk"

      Still on contentment high from Sunday.
    • Heather Shay
      CONTENTMENT The relentless pursuit of happiness often overshadows the more subtle yet profound emotional state of contentment. While happiness may be a fleeting high, contentment is the gentle hum of satisfaction that resonates through the soul, offering a sustainable path to life satisfaction. Oscar Wilde's poignant observation encapsulates this truth: "True contentment is not having everything, but in being satisfied with everything you have."

      I've been looking forward to the legitimate medical groups coming out strongly against Cass' biased and one sided report, so I'm really glad to see the article you posted, @Davie.  Unfortunately, it won't get nearly the coverage that Cass has gotten.  She has done her dirty work.  Hopefully the pushback and investigative reports on her and her support network will result in her work being shown for what it is.  She is a fraud, and sooner or later all frauds are found out.   Carolyn Marie

      CONGRATULATIONS, Jessica!!  That's really BIG! I myself did not experience a huge emotional roller coaster.  It was more like a smooth slide into emotional comfort.  The biggest effect I felt is when my Dr put me on T-blockers first.  I felt a bit 'empty' for a couple of months, but then realized it was just because the 'T-monster' was no longer running around inside of me.  Then I felt it was my new 'normal'. I feel like the estradiol was the 'frosting' on my transition affirmation.  It's been only positives.  I do cry a lot more, but it's only because I finally feel free to allow my emotions to come out.  To me it's not 'hormonal' ... it's FREEDOM!   Everybody is different but it sounds like you are under great care.  I hope you have a beautiful first year in transition on HRT (keep us updated if you can).
