Hi All! :)

Just a small random note..

I'm just about to go for an appointment today with my endo' to get tested whether or not I will need anti-androgens with my estrogen, I'm now 6 months into my HRT..

Personally, I hope I'm able to as I'd like the added security and piece of mind of redding off any unwanted T! :lol: On the same note, If anti-androgens are not necessary, that's awesome too! :)

I'll keep the forum up to date with the outcome, I'll post new pics next week when my new Nikon D700 arrives.. flash one! :D

Now, now I don't like to see two of my friends going at each other, she will tell us as soon as she knows. I am with you Donna Jean, she is being a bit of a tease.

So you're getting a Nikon 700, that's great! I shoot Canons myself, but unlike so many Canon verses Nikon types - I know that both companies manufacture fine equipment. When I shoot weddings I use 4 different assistants and they are split exactly in half between Nikon and Canon. Enough equipment talk, are we going to see any new pics before the big announcement?

Don't make me step back in between you again,

My endochrinologist has said the I do not require anti-androgens as it would have little or no effect on my hormone levels, it was quite pleasing to hear this :)

I hope that I am that lucky as well, very envious!

While happiness has many different definitions, it is often described as involving positive emotions and life satisfaction. Britannica   Happiness | Definition, Nature, Psychology, & Facts | Britannica Mar 13, 2024 — happiness, in psychology, a state of emotional well-being that a person experiences either in a narrow sense, when good things happen in a specific moment, or more broadly, as a positive evaluation of one's life and accomplishments overall—that is, subjective well-being. Happiness can be distinguished both from negative emotions (such as sadness, fear, and anger) and also from other positive emotions (such as affection, excitement, and interest).

The American Psychological Association (APA) defines happiness as “an emotion of joy, gladness, satisfaction, and well-being.” Many of us would agree with the APA's definition, yet the more you look at it, the more it can seem incomplete. For example, you may feel all of those emotions at one moment, but an hour later you may feel none of them.

Moments of happiness may be triggered by positive life experiences or thoughts, but sometimes it may arise from no obvious cause.

      Welcome to the forums, M.A. Duh . . . more questions came up for me,too--but I'm finding they don't have to be solved all at once. One thing at a time as I ask for help works for me. Keep coming back.  —Davie

      Good news is that I have nothing serious going on. The blood was coming from internal hemorrhoids, and the doctor says it's from the "typical American diet." Too much fat and carbs but not enough plant based fiber. A few other things were noted and biopsies on them for safety sake.    Hospital visit was grand with "most" of the staff addressing me as female. I did have "bra talk" with one of the CNA's. Even my discharged papers use my preferred name on them (Birdie).   So basically, adding more fiber to my diet will eliminate my internal hemorrhoids as well as lower my risk for cancer.

      For that part, be glad you live in MS and not in CA or some other "paradise."    Unfortunately, right now in the USA it is about choices.  Choose to live in a mostly free state that doesn't want my gender to exist, or choose to live in a leftist place that accepts my gender but not my family or my faith, or how I want to live my life or the stuff I own.   As for the lawsuits... hiring a lawyer costs money.  And a "no fees unless you win" attorney probably won't take a case like this, as it is difficult to get money from folks who often don't have anything.  As they say, "it is hard to get blood from a turnip."

      There's a couple of things.  First, since so many LGBTQ+ folks often vote Democrat, it is simply assumed that "LGBTQ = Democrat."  And to many, Democrat = enemy.  The fact that some of us don't vote for Democrats comes as a surprise to many.  You wouldn't believe how many different times I have had to explain how I vote, that I don't like Biden, etc...   And then, there's the flamboyant, over-the-top appearance and behavior of some.  When average folks see strange dress, wild colors, and the occasional provocative behavior in the news, they assume that it is the norm and that all LGBTQ+ folks are like that.  To them, "LGBTQ = weird."    I think that @Abigail Genevieve is right, part of it is lousy marketing.  And that will take a ton of undoing, because it has been going on for years.
