It was in every way the best night I have had in a long time. Rewind for a sec...... Morning time. My usual wake up frantic start to a day. Involving a tornado of clothing, an eagles eye scan and clean up of the face. Hair in a messy bun and do my eyes. Then maybe a mini clothing tornado and finally I emerge in my brown 2" heeled knee highs, dark wash skinny jeans. A cute hat, hip length fall coat ( makes my hips look fuller) and my pretty earth tone scarf.

The work day was long and drawn out. We had a 200 person buy out at the restaurant and I was in lead of pastries. We were prepped well ahead so most of the night was spent in waiting for our turn to plate desserts. Seemingly just another ordinary day.

I got changed to go home and one of our servers stopped me. She is a beautiful woman with a huge smile and fun personality and she had to let me know how amazing I looked. I felt great and we passed around some jean talk as I left. I went around to the restaurant doors and there was about 20 or more men milling about, looking satisfied after we had worked all day to feed them. Eyes locked on to me as I went inside to talk to my roomy working as hostess. We laughed and communicated with those subtle girly sounds and gestures as we both acknowledged the attention that I, me, THIS! hot cougar was getting. I felt flush and energized and loving how my day is ending. It did not stop there.

I had to get some money out from the ATM for a store run as I needed a bit of something before going home to wash up and sleep. Both machines were in use and there was a girl in front of me. As one guy got his cash, he stepped back to wait on the other guy when he looks at me. He comes over and asks me if I have a brother in town. I said no, but I do have brothers. So he checks again, asking if I am sure as he could swear I have a brother working at Araxi ( the restaurant I work in lol ). I made it to being the sister to my past male self haha... Kind of weird but I like it none the less.

So I have my money. The work night ended an hour earlier than a normal service would so there were some smaller eateries open that are normally closed when I am done. I walked past one of them and my friend saw me through the window. I have not seen her since the first week I started HRT and she had to do a double take as she realized who was really walking past. She ran out to see me and was excited for how much I had changed. It was a super special ending to an average day and was a really good boost to me as a person as a woman.

That is a fantastic story. Really made my Friday morning start off good!

I hope that one day people think I am my brother's sister. I'm sure you must be on cloud 9 right now :).

What an amazing story -thanks for sharing it. I can see how you are on cloud nine, I might be on 10 or 11 if that had been me. I never tire of hearing success stories like this, it motivates me even more.

      I personally don't understand how wearing panties is comfortable for much of anybody.  I'm AFAB, but there's just too much naturally, um...down there....for panties to be comfortable.  Consequences of being intersex, I guess.  I'd suggests some slightly-looser shorts instead.  There are some that are marketed to women, but have a kind of androgynous look to them.  Wish I knew a brand name, but I could ask my friends.  Both of my trans friends are non-op, so they have no doubt experienced how you're feeling.   Ugh... I get really irritable when GF keeps trying to put me back in female underwear because she says I "look pretty" that way.  I never thought I looked pretty that way or any other way, and the pinching/pulling/chafing combined with the overly-noticeable outlines of....stuff.... just makes it no-go for me.  Last time she approached me with an underwear item, I warned her she was going to get bit.

      I don't think so.  People may disagree with me, but I don't believe there's such a thing as "gay culture," "trans culture," "White culture," "Hispanic culture," or similar terms because those are really big umbrellas.    My background is Greek, and I live in the Mid-South part of the USA.  I share some of my trans-ness with my trans friends, and some aspects of our backgrounds and beliefs are similar.  But honestly, its impossible for me and the average trans person from California to agree on much of anything past the color of an orange and the fact that we don't quite fit in our bodies.

      Just heard from surgeon. Surgery successful and she's awake and resting well. Spleen was large about only about 100ml blood loss, probably all from bleeding into the mass & not from any rupturing. Dr didn't see anything else worrying except a liver nodule which she biopsied although she suspects the nodule is just age-related. She's anemic but they're holding off on blood transfusion for now bc they believe she'll recover naturally. About a week to get biopsy report. And Dr said if she continues to do as well as she has so far, she may be able to come home tomorrow. So best news possible so far. ❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️

      Well she did choose me in the end not him. Just frustrated that it was so hard to get her to do that.

      I am sorry to hear that your friend turned out to not be a friend at all.  But that is the bottom line: she is not a friend.  She has chosen to ally herself with him and he is toxic to be around.

      Please pray for my precious baby lady, my Siberian husky, who is having emergency surgery this afternoon to remove her spleen and a large mass attached to it. May the surgery be successful and uncomplicated, recovery be swift and easy, and pathology be benign. She is our sunshine girl.

      I decided to post here in the "other faiths" forum to declare this thread non-denominational and inclusive of all faiths, creeds, philosophies, etc. I thought it would be beneficial for our community to have a thread where we could reach out with requests for prayers, thoughts, intentions, or however individuals understand the sending of good vibes. So feel free to post here. Whether or not you get direct responses to your request, know it's been received, read, and honored. And may peace and ease be yours.

      Hi, you can be a trans man and be agender aswell. I know it seems like a contradiction, but I see myself as non binary and I'm accepting myself as a trans man also. You could be called trans masculinine also. If you like trans man the best though, go for it. You can be a GNC trans man.  Have you heard of gender fluid? Not saying this is you, but it does relate to what you say. Sometimes you seem genderless, more agender and sometimes more masculine. I also see myself as a bit genderfluid, but only for the masc genders. I never wear anything fem so would never consider myself a fem boy. I used to think I was , non binary, then a demi man, trans masc,  trans man. I can't pin a label to what I am. My counsellor said I may be genderfluid, but a very masc genderfluid person. I love that you hate societal gender roles, I do too! I dress like a stereotypical guy because that's my style anyway, but I won't change my hobbies or personality to suit what a "man" is.

      @Lydia_R   I seem to recall my mother making us cream of wheat or Quaker rolled oats in the wintertime. I don’t know about “old fashion” or “steel cut”. Now I preferred either with sugar and or berries and the cream of wheat with some milk.  I believe my older sister liked her’s with maple syrup.   as far as a “larger culture”. I think you will find that even though we all support each other there is no singular culture.  There are conservative values shared here and there are very radical everyone for the cause and rights.  I like to think that I am someplace in the middle.  No, I don’t go to Pride events nor transgender day of remembrance .  I don’t go to clubs or bars where others hang out.  I do try to hold council with others that need someone to talk to or a hug, or if I know of a group that might be helpful or a doctor, I will pass that on.  But yes I am out of the closet, go to work and church and do everything as a woman.  The male side of me is gone.   i get asked personal questions sometimes and while I neither get mad that what they are asking is too personal, I also don’t speak out oh yes ive done this or that or plan to do this or that.  I leave it with I've done everything I intend to do, or I didn’t figure this out until I was 68 years old because I knew nothing about what being transgender was. You have those that were kicked out of their home, I wasn’t, those that got divorced, I didn’t and those that have to put up with others who refuse to accept your gender, your rights to be who you are, and that I do get every day.   so is there a representative culture for being transgender?  Tell me I’m wrong, but I don’t think so I think we are a suppress percentage of the population that are getting braver but who get trampled all the time.   Willow

      Hi Ashley,   Thank you so much the reply !!!   That makes total sense with trusting the process and knowing that it’s not a sprint but rather like a marathon like you were saying.    So far so good with the Spiro 2 days in. Other than peeing a lot lol. But, no other noticeable side effects which I’m happy to report. However, I am MUCH happier that I’ve started at least somewhere. Gender Dysphoria symptoms are VERY real and starting treatment has made me SO much happier.   But, I will definitely look into the other options for E as you mentioned as there are definitely other options to consider other than the systemic route, thank you!!    p.s also trust in the process yourself and don’t be too hard on yourself. You’re a beautiful girl inside and out no matter what. “Patience is a virtue” is a proverb I’ve always lived by.   Much love girly 😊❤️
