I'm so sorry you had to go through that, Hannah. That would be a total nightmare :(

I hope you get the center to realize that they are in the wrong.

I hope the security guards not only have to apologise to you, but also lose their jobs.

still can't believe people can be so rude

I don't know about the law in Scotland but in the US you might have a valid complaint depending on your state. You certainly have a good reason to shop elsewhere. Is common decency so uncommon? Sorry for that difficulty.

Hugs,

Charlie

It sounds like you have the law on your side, Hannah. I think you did right by standing up for yourself and not letting yourself be bullied. Clearly there is a lack of education and training in that place. I am sorry you had to endure that, and end up in the news on top of it, but I wish you all the best. Please keep us informed of how things go. Also, if there is any legal actions being considered by the Centre, you may want to keep a low profile here and even have this thread pulled, so as to avoid having it used against you.

Hannah, I am so so sorry that this happened to you, you deserve far better then that. News like this makes me extremely upset and I hope there is some kind of legal action that you can take against them.

Hugs,

Sarah

Hi Hannah.

Kudos to you on standing up for your rights as a woman. I'm originally from your part of the world, having been born and raised, "Doon the watter" from where you work and always found passing through some areas of Paisley before my transition intimidating at the best of times, never mind how I would find it now. I don't think I would have the courage to transition in Scotland the way I do in America, probably because I grew up there and saw how the ignorant people treat anyone who is different. Not that the U.S.A. is any better with the bigots, just the majority of people I meet over here don't seem to care one way or the other. I wish you every success in your continuing transition and hope the idiot guards get a one way ticket to the Dole Queue. :thumbdown:

I hope you are able to bring litigation and bring national attention to that establishment for their bigotry.

That's pretty jacked up. Don't let them get to you. We have no control over the behavior of others, unfortunately :(

She is eight months into her Real-Life Test (RLT), which is a period of time transgender individuals live full-time in their preferred gender role.

This is to show she can function successfully as a female in society and to give her time to be sure she wants to live as a woman for the rest of her life.

She must complete the RLT before getting various hormone treatments in preparation for sex reassignment surgery.

Did the paper get it wrong on that, or do they make you live as female for a year without hormones over there?

      Not of people usually, but places have a "color sense" to me.  Not exactly visual, but like a feeling.  Almost a taste or sometimes tactile.    My home, and the temple of my faith community both have a strong feeling of "silver."  A tasteable, nearly tactile radiance...it means safety, and I seek it out.  It kind of transfers to people associated with those places, like my husband.  I knew he was good the moment I met him.  Some places have a color sense like fire, a combination of red and orange.  As you might expect, it is an exciting or dangerous feeling.  Attractive in a way.  Part of me is drawn toward it, another part of me is skittish of it.  Other places have a blue/green color sense, which can be iridescent toward purple-ish.  Its peaceful and calm.    What I really don't like is a sickly, greenish-gray color.  I can't even describe it fully.  The sense is slimy, slick, cold and revolting.  To me, it is a feeling of intense danger about a place or a person.  I'm usually more oblivious to the other color senses, but this one grabs my attention.  To me, it is associated with pure evil.    One of my strongest impressions of the evil color it happened at a natural spring in a state park near where I live.  I was walking around with a friend and I felt it, and she thought I was totally crazy.  I wanted to leave so bad, just terrified.  Thankfully she followed me out.  I only found out later that a murderer had escaped from prison and was recaptured there...he had been living near the spring, and we were maybe within 200 yards of him.  My color sense probably saved our lives.

      Not exactly.  Me alone - I'm helpless and can hardly do anything.  But with my partners I'm protected and supported, and a lot more things are possible for me.    My husband teaches a lesson to his kids when they fight, I've seen him do this a couple of times.  He'll hand them a bundle of sticks tied together, and tell the kids to try to break it.  Of course, it doesn't work.  Then he takes the bundle apart, and tells them to break the sticks one by one.  One person alone is easily overwhelmed or broken.  Two or more people together can stand firm against adversity.

      When I joined it was purely a play on Maybe. Mae happens to have a couple letters in common with my given name and I started using it when introducing myself to strangers. Since then, actually yesterday, when I caught up with an old friend and told her about my transition she thought she heard "Maeve" when I said "Mae". I could still use Mae as a nickname, it works well with my mother's name as a middle name (she died in 2019 and I love the idea of connecting with her memory more), and my initials wouldn't change if I change my name. So, Maeve it will likely be unless something better comes along. ;)

      I've not had a lot of involuntary action in that department and I'm 6mo in. After 3mo. my T was under 30. My doc wanted labs mid-cycle (3-4 days after my shot) oddly, but I am going to insist on getting trough numbers to determine if T is pushing back when serum E is low. I almost felt like I was going to have MW yesterday morning when I woke up (day of my shot), so I get where your thoughts are on the subject. It would be good to know how long that suppression lasts, not that T&E levels are complete indicators--my doctor doesn't seem to have any plans to check for the broader spectrum of metrics I see a lot on forums like SHBG, etc.

      Take two   blood letting is complete it took two of them pesky little mosquitoes.   our dog came to us mostly potty trained. She had a few “I can’t wait” moments but for the most part she was good.  She learned to ask th be let out. We had a bell on the door and taught her to ring the bell.  Then she learned how to open the door herself.  As long as it wasn’t locked out she’d go.  We had her trained to a hidden fence and collar she would go to the limit and sit and wait for us to tell her it was ok. She has always responded to verbal commands or my whistles.   Oh and there are obvious negatives about a dog knowing how to open doors.  She would disappear and we’d suddenly see her out the window.  Or we’ would let her out and suddenly realize she was sitting with us.  She never learned to close the doors, only open then.

      It took me less than 6 months, in how my body quickly responded to hormone therapy, I was once a 40 jeans size, and now I'm comfortably wearing 12 to 14 sizes. Estrogen can speed things up and can slow things down in order to make adjustments. Seeing a treating doctor is very important to monitor the hormone levels to avoid possible side effects later on in life.

      I actually have Yoga as part of my exercise routine at the moment.  Since I'm still in the first month (of three, arbitrarily chosen by me) I've only got it slated for weekends, Sat/Sun.  I am finding out though if I get a little in during my morning wake up that when I get to my cardio in the evening, my joints don't ache as much. Right now the routine is: Weekly - Minimum of 3 days of cardio Weekly - Minimum 1 day of Yoga Monthly - Single endurance jog, preferably on Sunday I want my big thighs and butt to kinda hang around, so I am going to work some cycling into the mix after the third month. So far though, with the help of the Yoga stretches, Down 14lbs in a month. Next week is month 2.  ;_;  Going to put the tredmill on a slight incline to see if I'm ready for it.  If ya don't hear from me, the tredmill ate me. Oh!  I use a product called Yoga Stack 52, so I can Yoga at home.  It's just a deck of cards with the poses, difficulty, areas they stretch, and a nifty QR code you can scan to see a demonstration.
