First Of My Family Knows

I've just spent the last 5 hours on messenger with my sister Crystal. It started as an ordinary conversation until I asked if she could keep a secret. She assured me she could and would. I asked if she wanted to hear me ease into the topic or hit her head on with shocking news. She said how ever it was best for me. We've always been direct, so I asked her... How would you feel knowing, that your older brother, was wanting to become your older sister? She was a bit shocked at that revaluation, she was braced to hear something about me being terminal or something equally worse. So she was equally relieved, supportive, and questioning. She wasted no time in picking my brain. Asking my thoghts, drives, and desires. Then kept apologising if she was prying. I told her not to worry, I'd happily answer anything she had to ask. If she asked anything that hit a nerve, I would politely tell her. Nothing did. I answered all she had to ask and we spent the rest of the afternoon joking. I even sent her my favorite pic of me as Kat. She said I looked alot like mom!?! Crissy let me know that she just wanted me to be happy, and would always be there for me. My heart is still in my throat from all this!!!

Luv Kat :)

Dearest Kat,

Coming out is one of the hardest things to do (as you know). I am glad to hear that your sister has been supportive.

Just want to let you know that you can expect many more conversations with your sister as the true meaning of your coming out becomes clear to her. Also, be prepared for the possibility that she might accidently out you to other family members. She won't mean to out you. It just comes out sometimes.

But coming out feels so good doesn't it :)

I am very happy for you!

Love you

Brenda

Wonderful news, Kelly. I couldn't be happier for you.

You have a fantastic sister, and you're very lucky. When you see her, I know you're going to give her

a big hug. She deserves it. :thumbsup:

      Good afternoon everyone,    I hope you’re having a wonderful day. @Birdie I love the good morning picture. I have an open door policy for coffee.    Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      I threw away most of my male ones, kept a few just in case (Dr appts etc). I had almost thrown those away to until this issue came back up again. Perhaps your right, over time hopefully I'll get more used to it. Having to switch back to regular male undies made me sad. I think going up a size may help to. It's not always sore, only when I wear them for long stretches. I don't feel myself in male undies. Thank you for the advice

      Over time, the stress continues to lessen -- as well as the euphoria that accompanied my coming out and beginning HRT. And as those milestones recede in the rearview mirror, it has allowed me to feel much more normal,  and to find my own expression of "non-binaryness".  My clothes closet is probably 80% female items, and will likely stay that way for the forseeable future. Were I young, I doubtlessly would find a different expression, but at 75 I am happy with what I achieved.   Another +1 to what @KathyLauren said regarding the worrisome and hateful behavior that we are witnessing. I can hope that this cycle will diminish over time, but to aid in that, each of us and millions of cis voters need to be involved in local as well as state/provincial, and national elections.    Kind regards,   Astrid

      These work well to keep the bits in place without too much discomfort. https://www.amazon.com/s?k=menstral+panties&crid=3A0T4KFOGDZW3&sprefix=menstral+panties%2Caps%2C89&ref=nb_sb_noss_2

      Going to a bigger size might help. I'm wearing high cut panties every day now - threw out all my male underwear - and ended going up a size just for the abrasion issue. I think that wearing them all the time has helped me "acclimate" as well.

      Currently the material is stretch cotton bikini with no tucking. I've even tried to stretch out the front to create a pouch. Unfortunately I've only had limited success with that.  I'm considering trying a bigger size..maybe that'll help. Thank you for the input

      Maddee, that makes me so happy for you!   I, too, am grateful for what I've learned about myself and for how far I've come in this past 1.5 years. 
    • Maddee
      Correction: MUCH more peace than I had before.     Profound improvement.  Gratitude. Make it the best possible.

      @Sally Stone I am genuinely sorry that I haven't been able to respond to your amazing story and example. Life has just been throwing multiple challenges my way.   I live close enough to Harrisburg to have been seriously thinking about attending the conference next year. Of course, your latest discussion of living part-time gives me pause because the fits me right now. I've been tempted to reach out to the organization and start a dialogue. I have signed up for their newsletter.   Any thoughts on if/how I should proceed?
