Another Small Step

Guest Wendae

After 46 years I've finially gotten my wife's grudging agreement to allow me to dress at home when I feel the need and not have to wait for her to go visit for the day. I was planning a trip next week and finances are getting too tight for me to go away to spend 3 days as Wendae. I pointed this out to her and said "wouldn't you feel better if I stayed home to be Wendae rather then going away?" She agreed that she would rather have me home and not out running around in drag. So now I can relax when the urge comes over me. Wow!!! That sounds like a full moon is required for me to morph into Wendae! :lol: Anyway it's a great relief and another small step towards full freedom of us going out as girl friends.

Congratulations Wendae! I know this has been a slow and difficult victory for you to achieve and I'm sure you will be much happier to finally be able to dress whenever you want

I'm happy for you.

That's fantastic to read this post Wendae ! Wives can be mysterious in their rational. To feel comfortable in one's own home is certainly a blessing.

Best wishes,

Isn't it great when doors like these are unlocked for us?! My wife too is supportive now, and just helped me dress into some stuff we bought together for me. When I asked her to help me with a little bronzer make-up, she said "you're going to have to learn to do this yourself!" :rolleyes: I giggled. We actually tried on a few things together and she's such a tom boy (doesn't even OWN a dress), I think she's coming around to having a girlfriend at home. The closet is now starting to look like there's a husband and wife living here and all the girlie stuff is mine! Ha ha! She even picked out a nice teddie for me to wear tonight. She said it looked "cute". While we were shopping together, I had to go get our son from daycare before 6pm, and left her in the shoe department looking for a pair of black size 11's that would go with "anything". She found the perfect pair of open-toes that compliment everything we bought! I love my wife!

Katie_in_AK . Yes it is! It's been a long time coming. I'm just about where I want to be with her. It's great having the closet full of clothes and shoes. A lingre drawer and a large selection of makeup. And now the freedom to dress at home.:)

Missy, that's the hardest thing I think, but when it's out it's out. 8 years ago when my wife was "told" she was not the same person as now. Since then she had worked with many sexually unique people and it was easier to finally write "the letter". I pray you are allowed one day to be your true WHOLE self.

Missy1900 It was a slow process to get to where I am. Like people say ...baby steps! I had finially reached the end of my rope and it was affecting my health. Actually after all those years I was ready to run away.(Not to the circus). Finially told her I needed more freedom and made a few concessions, The rest is history and I am sitting here all femmed up and feeling good. Take it slow and hopefully you will get your wish.

That's fantastic news Wendae, I am so happy for you, it is so good to be able to dress at home. Guess I am a bit lucky, though my wife does not want to see me she is Ok about me dressing when she is out, which is freqent, and going out dressed whether to my group or just shopping.She is very supportive though still uncomfortable. My great wish is that one day she may come round and we might be able to go out together just occasionally.I,m working on it.Hugs Daniel

      This morning I went to see my vascular surgeon at the Hospital network and the staff and doctor all referred to me as ma'am. It seems the new settings on MyChart are already current and staff are following my preferred pronouns and name (my appointment papers all have my obviously male name on them).   It's quite refreshing until returning to the day-centre where they again go out-of-their-way to call me "Sir". 🙄

      I guess this is the only plausible reason?  I can't imagine any other, really.  I think it is the intent of the Russian government to remove all LGBTQ+ people from their society.  I guess that will mean most of their female population, since I've noticed that Russian girls tend to be sexually "flexible" (at least)

      I absolutely disagree with the idea that God makes people to be transgender.  Genesis 1:27 says that God made people - male and female He created them.  Plural.  As in...people generally.  Also notice that God creates animals according to their kinds, and that Creation was orderly.  I don't find the "both/or/and" interpretation to be consistent with God's personality as described in Scripture.  God doesn't seem to operate with ambiguity.  It feels like using "lawyer language" to find something that isn't there.    I do not believe that God made me as I am...intersex/trans, unable to reproduce naturally, and with wacky plumbing inside me that by some miracle manages to still work.  I believe that while God gives the soul, our biological life has been an ongoing natural process after Creation, something which He chooses not to control.  Yes, God is omniscient, omnipotent, omnipresent, and all that.  But He voluntarily limits Himself in our world in this time.  He doesn't make everything or fix everything... cancer and war and such are proof of that.  If you believe in God creating people intentionally to be transgender, then you might also believe God intentionally creating some kids as disabled, or some to be stillborn.    I believe the path forward for Christians is to recognize and accept the effects of Original Sin upon all creation. There's a difference between God avoiding involvement/manipulation and actively creating a situation.  God doesn't make mistakes...but at this point, there are a lot of things that God simply doesn't make at all.  I don't believe He is as detached from Creation as the Deist "watchmaker analogy," but I don't believe He is controlling every little detail either.  There's a balance, sort of.  Disagree if you want - people have debated the issue of control, free will, and creation for centuries....it will continue to be discussed until the end of time.   I'm not sure if I was supposed to be a boy or a girl.  I guess when I get to the afterlife, I'll find out.  Because all the crap that happens here due to original sin and a broken system will be fixed.  The world will be set right, and I believe we'll all be either male or female as God originally wanted.  Some of us might be surprised at what that looks like.  As for me, I'll be happy with either.  I just want to fit in my body.

      Hi, Riya and welcome to the forums!! You find lots of veterans here and many of us are in fairly early stages of transitioning. Ask questions, and jump in wherever you feel comfortable adding to the discussion.

      I've been fortunate in growing my hair out. I had a few thinner spots - typical spots - but have been using Hims' hair growth treatment for about 6 months now and it had made a tremendous difference. I'm not sure how long I'll let it grow but I've been thrilled with how it's turning out.   Today I'm wearing this olive green high waisted 3/4 balloon sleeve midi dress with white sneakers.     I also received these today. Found them on eBay. I've been looking for a pair of brown riding boots but finding them in my size is hard and typically expensive. These were on end of season sale plus they gave me another 10% off so I ended up at about 40% of retail. They fit perfectly (12M). Unfortunately (or fortunately) boot season is over so I'll put them away until Fall.

      A little bit about myself. I am a veteran and college student. I’m here to align myself and to continue to grow. I myself so happen to be a transgender woman. This is as far as I have made it in transitioning. Looking forward to the future!

      Your brother is the person who has decided that "sin" is involved because he has lost control of a part of his life by you taking on your authentic self.  It is not because you have committed any Sin per se, but because he is no longer controlling your life, evangelicism or other wise.  He is using formula words and ideas hoping to re-gain that control over you.  Your Roman Catholicism vs. his choices of religion would be enough to do it in many many cases.  Your being Trans is just one more area of his losing his control.   If your brother were also Roman Catholic, I suspect he would be the same way about you on just the Trans issue itself no matter what your priests would tell him -- he has lost control of your life and is afraid he has lost control of his life.    Family members of any religion who fear loss of control will often cite scriptures they believe support their Position.  If Bible verses are needed, Matthew. 10:34-8 which speaks of division in families over religion would be a casual point directed at your brother's control issues.
