I just found this on the Dallas Voice. Chris Wallace from Fox News is raking his butt over the coals for his anti gay and trans people. I deem Santorums reply as " Utter Mutter"

It's no wonder I look at the pool of Republican presidential contenders and I shudder at the thought. I am a moderate and middle of the road guy. But ole Rick's tipped to the far right so far, I'm afraid he's about to have a roll-over lol

I read a column on CNN.com tonight, in which it was pointed out that Santorum has publicly stated that the laws of the U.S. should take second place to the laws of God, as defined by the Christian bible, and that all government laws must adhere to those laws. He also said that we should abide by what is written therein, and that modern ideas and beliefs should not hold sway.

Sounds like the Christian version of Sharia law. Not that the Congress would ever go along with it, but if he became President, i would be very, very fearful.

After watching that clip, I would say he seems a little overly concerned with homosexual sex. I think there is something more than meets the eye going on there. He seems to have given a lot of thought to what inapporpriate things could happen.

After reading your post Carolyn, I agree. Sure sounds like the Christian or rather religious version of Sharia law. Notice I said Religious version. There is a great deal of differance between being a Christian, one who folllows Jesus and those Relgious people who think that they know God's every thought. Me, I'm just a common ordinary man who tries to live a Christian life. Some days are better than others.

Willing to bet that doesn't include the Golden Rule, "do unto others as you would have them do to you." Prolly forgets all that rubbish about not judging, or loving thy nieghbor or anything else remotely compassionate.

      I shall absolutely flip there is nothing more annoying in my book than someone calling you the wrong gender or using the wrong pronouns specially when said person knows what the correct ones are and has done for six years

      Welcome Jenna.  Life can so many factors shape our journeys.  Finding peace and the acceptance of the journey as it comes are one of the results of my opening up here and working with a therapist. You are certainly not alone in your journey!   Hugs   Charlize

      Emotional tranquility is a state of being free from stress, anxiety, and agitation. It can also be a state of mind that is associated with feelings of gratitude, mindfulness, and acceptance.    Some situations that may lead to emotional tranquility include: Being in nature Engaging in a calming activity, like yoga or meditation Having a quiet moment alone Completing a challenging task or achieving a long-term goal Resolving a conflict or reaching a compromise with someone Feeling a sense of safety and security in one's environment or relationships

      Hello there @Jenna Cornelius, welcome aboard. You belong here.   As April said, your questions about gender identity are something that most of us have dealt with or continue to deal with. You are not the only one to feel the need to define yourself. I have changed the gender description on my forum profile half a dozen times since I've been here! 
    • Mirrabooka
      I would choose the photo on the right. It just seems nicer, and Maeve, surely it is a better depiction of how you normally look? I understand the thing about whether you are allowed to smile or not, but if you could get away with using that one, please do so!    The one on the left does look a little bit like a mugshot in my opinion. But if that is what you prefer to use, more power to badass you! 😆   By the way, I'm so happy for you that you are continuing to ride a wave of elation after officially changing your name! ❤️

      Welcome Jenna, It is so nice to meet you and I'm glad you felt comfortable to introduce yourself. Besides the therapist another great resource to explore YOU is a workbook called Gender Identity by Dara Hoffman-Fox. Costs about $15 on Amazon. It guides you through many questions and you use your life to fill in and it helps organize and helps you figure out who you are. Great to have you here and you've already met some great people and you will meet more. Hugs

      No big plans here, either. My wife and I typically spend the holidays at home, quietly enjoy each other's company.    We'll visit our son and his family, take them to dinner and give them their gifts a few days before Christmas but, otherwise, try to avoid the Christmas traffic and crush in the stores.   Oh, and bust a lot of Christmas lights here, too.

      Oh, my. I seem to be the lone "lefty" in the bunch. No matter the answer, I think both portray a beautiful, wonderful woman.
