While Biden may be more friendly to trans folks, I'm not a single-issue voter. I just can't choose a Democrat candidate, as I believe their actions will destroy my community and way of life. Biden just announced that he wants to significantly increase capital gains taxes. Maybe he intends to "tax the rich" but that is going to affect everything from land sales to grocery prices to the cost of electricity and even folks' retirement savings, as most companies make a large amount of their profits through investing in the market. It is absolute lunacy to think that increased cost or reduced profits won't be passed on to the rest of us. Things are going to get way worse at this rate. Mostly, I vote in elections for state and local issues, as the national government is about as pleasant as a Porta-Potty in July. So, either I'll do a write-in vote for president, or I'll check the box for Trump. Anything but Biden. -

Interesting...never knew any of this. Of course, in my girl form I never got breasts, so I never had to worry about it. A couple of pieces of tape would have been sufficient... Sounds like fun It has been interesting for me since I stopped trying to do sex like a girl. The real surprise was my relationship with my husband, as he has figured me out pretty well. -

They were sitting on the love seat, looking west out over Kansas. Below them the busy city ran to and fro. "They called. My surgery has been rescheduled for May 8. I need to be there at 5 AM for pre-op. I start prescriptions and diet change on May 1." "Okay." Bob did his not-thinking-about anything look. Taylor was always amazed that he could actually be thinking about absolutely nothing. She was always thinking of at least six things. "How can they be like that?" "What?" He startled a little. Contact with reality was reestablished. "Where does the hate come from? Mrs. McArthur? She was always polite, but I think she wasn't really. Somehow she hated me even though there were no indications whatsoever." "Yeah, well, you know they are starting up that plant. And my company is going ahead with their work there, down n Milliville. I will have to go down there sometimes." "Oh, Bob." "Maybe I will stop by and ask her." "No." "No. Cabaret is closed, I have been told. Your transgender support group has scattered to other places." "What is wrong with those people?" "Same thing as Roosevelt, I guess. You know all the racial comments against Blacks? Like that game where our cheerleaders started this insulting cheer, an the opposite team was mostly Black? Teachers stopped it." "I didn't know. I was staying away from that, remember?" "Yes." "You know all those kids at our church, the ones you called freaks the other day?" "I shouldn't have called them that." "Pastor tells me they are all from all over the Midwest. These are kids who have been thrown out of their homes and were found on the street. Other shelters would not take them, so they wound up here." "Not surprising." "I think we could do some good here." "What do you have in mind?" And she told him. -

You are spot on here ... but also it seems like such a rigged game for the average person that it's hard to invest energy into the political arena -- too much big money controlling too many people/organizations/narratives for the common person to fee; heard... In general, why we in America accept either candidate is baffling... for all our innovation as a nation, we can't do better than these two bozos? The problem is, the political arena is such a sham -- again with large money controlling all aspects of the system -- that a common-sense, love-your-neighbor, make-reasonable-compromises, roll-up-your-sleeves-and-get-to-work candidate will never make it anywhere above the local level (if even there)... Everything is a reality show, and boring ol' decision makers that try to benefit the most people don't generate enough clicks, views and retweets... I am not sure it is so much about celebrity as it is about party politics at all costs - "my side must always be viewed as right and your side must always be viewed as wrong!" kind of thinking... there is no consensus building anymore because that will get used against you in campaign ads... When Obama took office and then Hilary ran again, it was like all Republicans want to do was to find someone loud enough to put them in their place. Forget issues, forget character, just win a debate and rally the base. To get back to your original point, not enough of us care about politics ... and in some ways we've become fat, happy and entitled as a nation. The yearning to achieve the "American dream", which drove my parents and their parents before them to work their tails off and sacrifice and save, is now just "give me the American dream for free while I sit here on my phone and watch tiktok..." -

I am about 5 weeks ahead of you ... best wishes to you! For me it has been subtle changes at most so far (if any) ... but I am also on the "beginner's" level of patch, lol ... Easy -

Oh, another comment. I am a conservative evangelical with strong Republican leanings. So is my wife, my friends, my family. I disagree with a good amount of what the Republicans are doing, but there it is. I understand the mindset, I think, a lot better than those who are outside it do. When you insult Republicans you insult me, my friends, my family. People like me can struggle with trans issues. Please consider that in posting. -

I found this as well. No playacting, they just appear: the finger waggle wave; bracing my elbow on my other arm that's folded across my chest, wrist in the air half-cocked; walking a bit more fiercely... All that. My wife thought I was mocking her at one point! -

I find my lack of time to read the thing frustrating, and I will not really comment until I have read it. This is a wholly inadequate response. 1. I think there are some legitimate concern. 2. Thoroughly discussing this will consume many threads. 3. I disagree partially with @MaeBe but there is partial agreement. 4. The context includes what is happening in society that the authors are observing. It is not an isolated document. 5. Trump, if elected, is as likely to spend his energies going after political opponents as he is to implementing something like this. 6. I reject critical theory, which is based on Marxism. Marxism has never worked and never will. Critical theory has problems which would need time to go into, which I do not have. 7. There are groups who have declared war on the nuclear family as problematically patriarchal, and a lot of other terms. They are easy to find on the internet. This document is reacting to that (see #4 above). 8. Much of this would have to be legislated, and this is a policy documented. Implementation would be most likely different, but that does not mean criticism is unwarranted. -

Sort of bracing myself for flipping, because I am wearing f and of course I wear f and it is natural to wear f and what else would I wear? The novelty is long gone out on this. I wore a bra most of yesterday but we had a Zoom call and I took the bra off because I was concerned about the straps showing. I missed it. My body is saying "I am female! Treat me that way!" In the past it has screamed about this activity that I have done to it. -

This is what I'm scared of. And it's quite possible. Apparently Chicken Little was right. -

Whether it was a hate crime or not, it's still horrible. -

Finally I am back online I had to use the help of the contact form (not proud of that, I always feel embarrassed and shy about contacting people), but here I am missed all of you
