My Pink Coat

Soon, I'll be going to conference at, well.... a super cold place (40 F is the high, 25 F is the low). So, we've been looking to get me a winter jacket. We actually found this in the kids section (it was a kids's XL). It was on sale for $17, and my boyfriend liked it, so he just bought it on the spot. Thing is, I'm not sure... What do you think? (You can see the enlarged version in the gallery)

Looks very warm and comfortable! Are you gonna wear the same scarf? I think its better if you find one that matches your coat!

HI Sam,

Hot pink! I love it! My fav jacket for this time of year here, a bit warmer than that, is a pink hoodie.

You're a braver girl than I, if you're thinking skirts and dresses, though. I did love my three weeks in Florida recently, but I've been wearing nothing but pants here!

You look great! Enjoy your trip!

Love, Megan

@Angelica

Thanks! :-) I might just tuck in the scarf, it's probably super windy there....

@Megan

Thank you :-) I'm definitely wearing much more (fleece leggings, etc) when I travel. The skirt just happened to be part of my school outfit :-)

I think you look great! I actually love wearing a long skirt with a slip in the winter. I love the way the wind feels and it is amazingly warm like carrying a bed around on my legs or at least the covers. Heat rises and i feel warmer than with pants on. I never thought that would be true but it seems to be.

The coat looks slightly short in the sleeves but just a bit otherwise fine. i like pink as well.

Enjoy the conference.

Hugs,

Charlie

Now your going to have to find some great short sleeve tops for the summer. It never ends. As a guy all i did was pull on the same old jeans and a t shirt. Now it's harder but a lot more fun!

Hugs,

Charlie

I love Tibetan stores. There's one in Colorado I like to go to every time I'm in the area. Their handmade clothes are so nice and the patterns are pretty. I picked up a meditation bowl there too, and it's awesome.

Wish there was a store like that around here. :-/

Thanks JeepGirl :-)

Hi Kay :-) Aren't Tibetan stores amazing? Unfortunately, it turned out that the Tibetan shop near us was closed on Sundays :-( We're trying again this weekend (but not on Sunday). My boyfriend really likes their shirts, and I'm looking for some bright colored dresses and skirts for the summer :-) Pictures when available!

      Well, my friends are out publicly. Openly transgender, and on HRT.  I agree that the survival of all of us is at stake.  But I think there are threats greater and more dangerous than those faced exclusively by LGBTQ folks.   Rising prices. Unaffordable food.  EPA strangling transportation and energy.  Needless foreign wars that put us at risk of literal nuclear annihilation.  A government that wants to tax us, track us, and control every aspect of our lives...including using us as guinea pigs for their medical experiments.     Trump is no savior.  Neither is the Republican party.  But I believe that a vote for Democrats in the federal government is for sure a vote for globalism and what follows it.  War, famine, plague, slavery, and death don't care if we're trans or cis.

      People who are out publicly, and openly transgender, maybe on HRT, having changed names and gender, have a lot to lose if anti-trans politicians take power.  They have openly called for our eradication, and promise to do everything they can to accomplish this.  (again, 2025) For someone in this position the election is about our survival.  It's foolish to delude ourselves into thinking "Oh, they don't really mean that.  It's all for show," or, "There's other more important things to concern ourselves with." Maybe for some people the other things take priority.  But if you have skin in the game, things look different.

      If that happens, a lot of things I don't want to see might also be codified into law.  And some things that shouldn't be law might not get repealed.  To me, progress in one area isn't worth the price we'd have to pay in several other areas.     For me, voting on LGBTQ issues always ends up as an "out of the frying pan, but into the fire" sort of event.

      Trying out a new wig. Got my reading glasses on. I've also got dark roots now - first time in years.

      Thea, your post made me think of a comic named Chloe Petts whom I saw recently on Hannah Gadsby's Gender Agenda comedy special on Netflix. She is a cisgender masculine lesbian. She is brilliant and so funny. I was intrigued by her identification - specifically masculine, not butch. And it seems to me there is a difference.

      Today I had a dr appt. When I checked in, I was asked my surname, which I gave. Apparently there were two patients with appointments at that time with that same surname. The receptionist asked, "Are you (my legal name which is feminine) or Paul?" I got such a kick out of it not being assumed I had the feminine name.

      That must have felt affirming, albeit perhaps weirdly so. However, I'd construe that more broadly (no pun intended) as sexism rather than misogyny where the latter would imply contempt. Also, incidentally, I've heard chivalry referred to as "benevolent sexism".

      My boss is in a panic. His business is a couple straws away from breaking a camel in half. He's just handling the stress very poorly.   My dad, though. He's handling things pretty well, as long as I continue to don't get massively offended by being called: son, boy, etc. His eldest is leaving the State and looks so different than he's been used to over the years. I haven't told him I'm on HRT, but to be fair the changes haven't been massive. I've always had boobs, more so after COVID weight gain and made more obvious with its loss, but now I'm not hiding them--and obviously wearing a bra. The estrogen has done some work, but nothing major (sadly). I think the biggest HRT changes have been my skin and a mild amount of fat redistribution.   Today I'm wearing my cheater, I almost have cleavage! :D I need to get another t-shirt bra to keep a good rotation. I only have two, one push-up, and the rest are unlined (great for Summer, but not great for my Summer wardrobe ).

      Thank you so much April!

      I eat a ketogenic diet and have had no problems. I don't know about your case but I suspect it is the estrogen. Research the types of ways to take estrogen. Pay close attention to the bloodwork results. If they are not satisfactory, bring it up with your doctor. I take injectables, which are fully covered by insurance. It may not be the route for you, but something to consider. I emphasize to do your research and good luck. You can solve this. Be persistent.    Jennifer

      I'm in a magenta blouse under a baby blue buttoned cardigan - still a little cool here in the northeast today - with dark blue jeans. Oh, and my favorite flame colored copper feather earrings.
