Hey leo - good luck with the appointment!

Yeah, moms can be a bit... how do you say it... weird. Hang in there - once you are a little further on your way transitioning and she sees changes happening and sees you come to be the confident, dashing guy that you are, maybe she will come around. I hope my parents do - they have been generally good, but lately have backtracked and used female pronouns and my <birthname> a few times recently... *sigh*

Hey guy - hang in there - let us know about that 'sortra' appointment.

An if what you say is accurate, maybe your mom is thinking about you seriously as TS.

Good luck

Goodluck with the appointment. I'm sure your mum will get there eventually. Once she sees how happy you are as your transition progresses I'm sure she will be happy for you. It'll just take her a little while to get to where you are. x

a bit more of an update, theres good news and not so good!

mum signed in on msn as i was online, my screen name says 'Leo' and when she saw that she wrote

"i named you *birthname* and im not speaking to you online!"

i was pretty shocked but shes acted in person like nothing has happened so i duno!

the good news is a wirk collegue came into the cinema with her sister and her sister says "whos that usher? hes a well hot guy"

was talking bout me and im pre T was well! she told me at work today and i said im no offended and didnt mind

You'd think adults would act more like...adults. It seems they don't huh? Yelling at you for not using your birthname ONLINE sounds a little childish to me.

Good luck on the appt, bro.

so had my assesment today, was mainly to see is my mental health was in check before i go the whole hog, apparently i need to be careful though my results were not perfect.

she suggested that i chat to someone face to face in my situation, she gave me a website, that im currently checking out and also if i really am ready to start my transition then i have to go back to my GP and they will refer me to start my transition :)

gives me time to think though which im happy about

Well Leo when it comes to assesment reports, no body's perfect!

So just relax and give yourself time to breathe - She didn't seem to be too concerned so you don't have to either!

Be happy!

Love ya,

Sally

      Society is preserved by passing on proper roles for people, which works for the 90+ percent that it works for.   We were all taught from an early age that breaking out of the classification was a shameful thing, even when, actually, it is not. 
    • Abigail Genevieve
      I'm probably showing my age.  I haven't looked at a guest count in a long time.  Doing FB and staying off forums for a while.  Previous forum use had fewer bots if any and guests were actual people, mostly, unlike today.    Any AIs or bots struggling with GD are welcome.  I would love to read your introduction.

      I've seen this on a lot of forums tbh. That's how a lot of content ends up on internet archives. You've got loads of bots scanning the site at all times and archiving it. Forums are actually nice (in comparison to social media) in that the guest count gives you a pretty good idea of how actively the site's content is being archived. Basically just don't post anything you don't want archived.

      Kids are resiliant with therapy and strong support ;-)    They were all elementary age when their dad died and are teens now, and how they've grown and developed as young people, already, takes my breath away.   I'm working on communicating changes clearly and without shame, which is difficult basically all the time because of feeling guilty over doing gender "wrong" for so long. Working on that myself! <3

      Allow me to add that people should think twice about posting pictures of themselves, with the facial recognition software that is out there.  Those in stealth or who are not fully out may discover they are suddenly and unwillingly fully out in ways they wish had not happened.

      Funny how when i read the topic name i thought you were asking about the study of plants and animals.  I'm a bit into that as a farmer at va time when a cell phone makes plant  for insect identification easier than it has ever been.    Now on to your topic.  I don't farm in the nude.  I have wondered at whether i would skinny dip as i did as a kid without thought of how my body might affect others.  The effects of hormones makes me different from the average person and perhaps i'm "neither fish nor fowl".  I would certainly depend on who my fellow passengers on that cruise would be.   Hugs,   Charlize
    • Abigail Genevieve
      This is also a relatively small forum and it can take a long time, seemingly, for someone to get around to replying to a post. 
    • Charlize
      I am also pretty sure that several of them are folks who are "trans curious".  Sometimes folks who are trying to find their own identity, are attracted to trans folks or who are simply interested in the trans community.   There may also be some who wish to do us harm which is why ......... I've just learned to smile figuring "i'm on candid camera".   I'm sure many of our younger members never experienced that show so my age is showing.   Hugs,   Charlize

      Most of those "guests" are web bots from China, Indonesia, France etc. looking us over. They are mostly benign.  All they can see or gain access to are the general forums.  Members should be careful not to post anything that could readily identify themselves such as real names, addresses, phone numbers, etc. They do not have access to our gallery, blogs or private messenger. They seem to haunt all forums. Not just us. I should add that they can make us known across the internet. That's how prospective members find us. Google would be a good example.

      I hope he gets what he deserves.

      Heck I didn't even know they could go up that high! I just have a four burner and one to keep stuff warm. What kind of pies did you make?
    • MaeBe
      I'm sure you'd rock it, girl!

      That's all the matters.   Well me and the wife rode to Perkins for breakfast. As we were waiting for our food. Being it is Sunday There are a few gentleman in suits, my guess from church. I think to myself. I hope I never have to wear one of those monkey suits ever again. Now a nice dress maybe.   Hugs,   Kymmie

      From time to time I've looked at 'Who Is Online" and I have consistently noticed that members are ALWAYS outnumbered by Guests by a wide margin, sometimes, like a minute ago, by more than a 10:1 margin.  I have never seen that before on an internet forum.  It can be explained partly by the nature of what this is, that it draws the curious and they are certainly welcome to read here, and to join, but it leaves me with a feeling of being in a fishbowl.  I wonder who ARE these people?  Donald Trump, is that you? Biden? Sinwar? Putin?  We can only guess.
