Hi All

Big day tomorrow My brother is visiting for Easter and I've promised my Mum I'd come out to him the 1st face to face chance I had which will be tomorrow. He id the 1st of my family & friends other then my mum I'll come out to. I'm not religious so I can't ask you to pray for a happy ending but if anyone wants to send happy thoughts in my direction at around 4pm UK time tomorrow I'll greatfuly receive them.

Love

Claire

Hope it goes well Claire. I was scared with my brother but we have been closer ever since i came out. i think he loves having a sister and both he and his family have been very supportive. My fears were completely unfounded. I wish you the same and will pray that that hapens for you.

Hugs,

Charlie

I know how difficult it is to tell someone you love how you feel. Be strong , and know that we're all waiting to hear what happened and hope that it goes very well :)

Hi All

I had a call from my brother late yesterday. my sister in law has gone down with tonsillitis so there won't be a full visit. He is still comming up on Saturday as we are going to the rugby and I'll tell him after that. The worst bit is that he'll have to tell my sister in law rather than me doing it.

Love

Claire

Hi All

Well I’ve done it.

We went out for a meal yesterday evening and when we got home we had our traditional glass of whisky and I asked my brother how open minded he was & how shockable and he said pretty broad minded and not that shockable so I explained that I had been diagnosed as suffering from Gender Dysphoria and was embarking on treatment to become a woman and he just gave a little shrug and said OK. We talked for about an hour & a half about it and during this he mentioned that the cousin of a colleague was Trans and did I want him to ask them about support groups etc so I said I was covered. When I told him how scared I had been about telling him, he said he understood as he had spent a long time building up the courage to tell us last year that he was a naturist.

When he left after lunch I thanked him for his understanding and apologised for landing him with telling his girlfriend and his response was no problem & I’m glad you are getting yourself sorted.

Love

Claire

Hi All

Just got off the phone with my Sister in Law. When I answered the phone she said ;He's told me - He came in and said I've some important news about D*****' and her 1st thought was I had cancer and was releived when it wasn't. She then asked if I was happy and I said happier than I had been for a long time and she said ' Thats the most important thing'.

So the weekend couldn't have gone much better - My closest family all know and are behind me all the way.

Love

Claire

      Do I ever feel? There isn't a single minute that goes by that I feel that way. I have such a strong hate for what I have that there isn't a word out there for it.

      Ashley's Life from Start to Present

      I already tried that. Either too old like 60's and 70's or married. Not many people who would want to date a trans woman in dead red Mississippi. Maybe once things calm down just get a Mustang GT and just give up on it. Both are going to bring joy and pain. At least I could learn and share my love of cars with my kids when they get that old. I wouldn't even know what to do if someone said they wanted me. I would've already been thinking in my mind they are just going to ghost me so what's the point. I just don't know what to do anymore. I tried putting myself out there online and out in person. I haven't tried a bar yet although that's probably a bad idea. Maybe just to experience it again. I haven't been to one since 2013. The only problem I see is I'm not a night owl for sure. I go to bed at 8-830. My expectations were just that I wouldn't get rejected last. I have been able to handle a good bit of it but this one really hurt. I guess that's what happens when you have some hopes and expectations. It's not like I have another friend IRL to talk about this. She is my only one. I wished I didn't put myself out there.

      Political candidate, who linked pedophiles with LGBTQIA+, gains preselection approval.

      As one who had to deal with the Porn/Adult Entertainment business as commercial, taxpaying businesses on a professional level, I can say that they are in it for money and the highest percentage of their income comes from ultra conservative areas where adequate Medical and Mental Health Profession and University Science instruction on Trans issues are banned.    It makes me wonder how much porn literature is hidden behind the 13 Bibles and Bible Study guides on some people's family bookshelves.

      Do you ever feel trapped in a body that doesn't feel like yours?

      There's the old thing of getting out and getting involved in things in the community and meeting people that way. Does your church have a food pantry? Does it have service opportunities you could plug into otherwise? You might run into someone that way.

      Well that didn't go well. She said she is intentionally single. When will I just stop thinking about putting myself out there. It really hurt but rejection and getting ghosted is just my second language apparently. The one person I have told all my dark secrets and didn't run off. At least we are friends. I'm happy only when I'm sleeping and that is it because things actually go my way from time to time. Just another wonderful day of me. SMDH!

      In their minds, yes, unless it is clearly, consistently, forcefully articulated by those who represent trans people that we are not.  I'm not sure who that would be.

      So, this proves that we're all  pedophiles? I suspect that the majority of pedophiles are probably cis.   Yeah, Alexander the Great was probably queer.  What does this have to do with me needing to pee?   I am so tired of this ___.  I raised 8 kids and never molested any of them - unless you count changing diapers without closing my eyes.  Yeah… so tired.   It makes me wonder what is actually on these people's minds.
