Everybody doesn't feel this way. As a AMAB child (in the 50's) I don't think I questioned my body, but I was quite fascinated with girl stuff. When puberty hit I really wished I was a girl - but alas - I was stuck living as a guy. As an adult I had pretty bad homophobia, which was probably internalized transphobia, but I didn't really know what transgender was at the time. And by then I was locked into a marriage and family. I lived like that for most of my life, and convinced myself (but not my wife) that I was happy. When we were in our 60's, the marriage fell apart. And I believe a large part of that was me resisting my feminine self. When I no longer had to live up to being a man, I dared to take another peek inside, and my egg cracked big time. I still don't think I was "born in the wrong body." Maybe it just needed a little tweaking. I think our "gender" is an internal thing. I don't regret having lived so long trying to be a guy. But if I could have transitioned as a child it would have been awesome. -

@Adrianna DanielleSeeing two different therapist for separate issues really helped me deal with the each of them on different levels. I hope this works for you too. Hugs, Mindy🌈🐛🏳️⚧️🦋 -

I seem to remember the word "deplorables" being used not long ago. Unfortunately so often appropriate. Hugs, Charlize -

It was not that long ago that black people were banned from the University of Mississippi. Schools were segregated and the same excuse of protecting the women (or girls) of old miss. Times and many feeling have changed with time and federal intervention. Unfortunately politicians love to separate and divide to gain power. Hugs, Charlize -

I agree @Birdieto just "fit in", is what drove us to therapy. I'm not fitting in just to please someone with a closed mind. At least you know who your fair weather friends are now. Hugs, Mindy🌈🐛🏳️⚧️🦋 -

Yesterday in the lobby some of the residents were talking with me. One asked, "how come in all the TV commercials at the centre you don't appear in any of them?" I explained that, "I'm an embarrassment to the centre and they don't know what to do with me." I get edited out! Quite the differing options with the ladies at the table as some of them said, "that's discrimination", while others said, "they can see why." Another lady said, "you would fair better if you cut your hair and went back to overalls, you should strive to fit in!" Their opinions are as meaningful to me as rubbish. I did 45 years of trying to "fit in", and not doing that again. 😉 -

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" -
