An Interesting Quote

I found an interesting quote from Lewis Carroll's THROUGH THE LOOKIN-GLASS. "Well, now that we have seen each other," said the Unicorn to Alice, " if you'll believe in me, I'll believe in you." If you project a happy, confident woman (or man), then that is what people will see, and that is how you should be treated.

People come in all shapes, sizes and ages. Wearing the right clothes does help but it does not, alone,make the person. A good positive attitude, and a good belief in yourself makes the real difference. Many women wear boyish outfits but still project a very feminie appearance because of their self confidence in themselves.

Before going out the front be sure that you are in the right mindset. As they say, "attitude is everything." Believe in your self - and smile - before you know it - they will be smiling back!

GOOD LUCK and many hugs and best wishes to all!

Kontessa,

I love the quote hun. Not to mention what you had to say. I made a lot of sense. As I am just starting my process at the very beginning it is foremot in my mind about passing for a genetic woman. It caused me to think how many genetic women are mistaken for men so it stands to reason some might think I was one of those. And I already act feminine and am comfortable in that lol. So, Great words to live by.

I was just thinking about it yesterday, but i still have a hughe prefference for feminine clothing, anyway, as Kalie said, a lot of women can be mistaken for men, and yet they still women, clothing is just one part of it. By the way, i loved the alice in wonderland book and i started reading through the looking glass a couple of days ago.

Kisses

Sara.

Hi Sara!

Thank you for those kind word and I know that you will love "Looking Through the Looking-Glass" also! I have found that reading children's classics when your older gives you a different and a unique persepective - kind of like us.

Have a great day and many hugs and best wishes to you, and your loved!

      hi vidanjali !! i know exactly what you mean, i do have a few trans and otherwise queer friends nearby me but currently i present as 'cis' for obvious reasons so it's not all that easy for me to reach out and find that kind of community (though i do love my irls!!)   but yeah, i get this weird paranoia that if i come out to too many people it'll end up tracing back to my folks (not everyone knows my family is homophobic and being outed is a big fear of mine)   but im sooo happy to know that that feeling was just dysphoria !! i thought i was going crazy for a minute !!.   thanks so much for welcoming me, and you have a great day too !!

      hi susan!! thats very much how i feel !! i have no issue explaining my gender or educating other people on transness but it feels like im talking to a brick wall of misinformation even if they are well-meaning and accepting people ! but thank you anyways for welcoming me here !!

      This is a fairly long video by Philosophy Tube,  (Abigail Thorne)  Discussing some of Judith Buttler's work and related stuff.   I wasn't sure where to post it, so if there is a better place, move it.

      I have a fantastic therapist. She is so caring she has helped me open up so much. Unfortunately, She is ending her internship. Do to a hiring freeze at the VA she isn't going just go right into a position there.  My Endo is out of the Denver VA hospital. I haven't talked with her in probably 2 yrs. I am  looking to transfer providers and get back to seeing a GYN at the Cheyenne VA.

      Shopping at the mall today and helping out at Torrid I excused myself to the restroom. The manager told me the restroom at JC Penny was much closer (I normally use the family restroom in the food court).   Upon arrival I discovered that JC Penny doesn't have a family restroom, it's either or.   The men's room was occupied with customers, and me going in with large breasts, long hair, and makeup was going to cause a stir, so I opted for the woman's room instead. I was the only one in the woman's room.    Texas state law does state that your must use the restroom that matches your chromosomes, and it's a misdemeanor to not do so, but it seemed to be the best choice (I really needed to go!)

      I had some guy grab my butt on the ship.  I don't know how "real" it was, but I did not enjoy that at all.  Also did not enjoy the hazing I saw other people going through.  One person can only do so much to stop that when there are 10 people doing it.

      I pulled this out of a stack of old military mementos yesterday.  I guess I didn't realize how cool this one was because I did so much of this kind of thing back then.

      This internet video thing is pretty amazing.  I'd call it Zoom, but there are other platforms out there.  I prefer Zoom over Teams because Zoom puts me and everyone else in the same picture.  I like seeing the whole group in one shot.  Teams of course is about having so many people that you can't get them in the shot, or is it?   Just saying that I have never met any of my counselors in person.  Doctors, of course I have and I am lucky there.  They are 3.5 miles from my house as is the main transgender surgery place in town.  I've been doing virtual visits with the medical doctors lately though.  It feels like once I became steady state, they don't need to interact with me physically that much.  I have enjoyed going into their office in my nice clothing.
