Hi Ladies,

So I have been on HRT for almost two weeks. Thursday I spoke to my companies HR department and informed them of my transition. Nothing but support there. Friday I sent an email to my upper management team and received nothing but support from them. Now here's the hard part, I work as the site security supervisor at a client's site. I have spoken with three of my staff and their supportive. Now I have to speak with the client and then the almost 100 employees that work at the clients site. Any suggestions on how to go about this last part?

Hugs to you all

First of all, let me congratulate you on starting HRT.  There is so much to look forward to.  it's going to be a time filled with changes.  I hope all good ones.

As to your question, when you talk with the client, why not ask them for their advice.  They know their staff, and they should have a role to play.  You can certainly ask them for their assistance and support with the process.  Perhaps they can put out a memo to the staff, or have a meeting at which you can speak.  Most importantly, they should express their support for you, and provide leadership.  It should not all be on your plate to manage.

HUGS

Hi Ladies, 

So, on Monday I talked to the two people who are in charge of the Client site. I was so nervous. They thought I wanted to tell them I was leaving. When I told them I am transgender and working on my transition they said "Oh, good your not leaving us" and they told me they support me and will take care of any issues with the employee's if any accrue. 

This has been a great Journey so far for me. Nothing but support from everyone I have came out to. 

Have a wonderful day. 

Hugs

Good morning, 

Wow, almost 5 months on HRT and have come out to more than half of the 120 or so employees at work. So far only one person has said that they disagree with it. He also said he can't judge anyone and that people should be happy. 

Thus far my journey has been so amazing. I feel so blessed to live in such an excepting area. I hope all of you are as blessed in your journeys as well. 

Hugs

That's wonderful, Shawna!

I'm just starting to come out and aside from my dad, work is the one in a bit nervous about. It's very nice to hear that you've had a good experience.

Wow, it's been a year on HRT. I have come a long way in a year. If you told me I would still be on cloud 9 back then, I wouldn't have believed you. But here I am and still feeling great. Thank you all for being here and supporting me through this last year. I am looking forward to the things to come. 

 

Hugs

      My size. A lot of guys aren't 5'3" at seventeen. My hands. It's a less noticeable one, but my hands are very "feminine"? If you know what I mean. My voice. Very high-pitched. I don't just sound like a female, I sound like a little girl sometimes My chest. I've had to stop binding due to frequent aches doing so, and it's not nearly small enough to just cover with baggy clothes My family. They still call me she/her, so that's an automatic out. My anxiety. I might be able to pass better if I had the courage to correct people. Instead, I'm too scared to speak up, so I find it hard. My lack of men's clothes.   Anyone else have these problems, or other ones?

      From what I have read and heard most people are so.busy with their everyday lives and either looking at their phones or in a hurry to notice you out and about.

      This exactly ^^^   I actually really liked games where I was required to play a male character. It felt homey, in a way.

      Anyone play war and order on their phones?  
    • violet r
      I can relate.  I have always played a female character when given the opportunity. Not really and reason except I just alway pick them since I was young

      Yes, our little town is having its 3rd annual Pridefest. I've volunteered the first two years  from setup to tear down (though I do take an hour off to eat and drink in the middle).     Then I attend a bigger one a couple towns over that has had some decent entertainment from some semi-famous folks (Laura Benanti, Patrick Wilson, Carmen Carrera, Judy Gold, etc).    This year I made sure to ask off of (weekend) shifts to attend a 3rd one where a group I'm in is in the parade.

      Hi Vicky, I agree with you, so far since the time I've been under the new treating doctor's care, she prescribed me medication, but it's for children lol  luckily  my pharmacy warned me from a phone call not to take the medication.

      Welcome to the party, M.A.     Sounds chaotic haha, I can confidently say that living with only two children the same age is stressful enough, much less three!

      Things hit the fan today. I was reminded that "this is not a gender fluid establishment."   I had changed my preferred name and gender at the hospital on their app. My x-ray report came in with my preferred name and gender. It was not appreciated by the centre. 😬

      I'm not a nutritionist but I've gone on bulking diets in the past so I can suggest a couple things to try. Foremost, food-prep stuff that you like to eat. Any 'real food' that usually sounds good to you. That way, you don't have the time-sink or hassle of cooking for every meal. You're more likely to eat if stuff if it's convenient and mostly ready. For example, I'll spend an hour or so one evening prepping burrito ingredients that will last me the next 3 nights. Then it's just a matter of microwaving the beef/beans and throwing them into a tortilla; takes 5 min.   If you need food 'on the go' often, consider prepping smoothies in advance pre-separated out into individual containers. I personally like low-no fat yogurt blended with fruit and, here's the weird part, those water flavor drops. They add sweetness without dumping in excess sugar. Insulated containers will keep them reasonably fresh non-refridgerated all day so they can even be tossed into a backpack.    Hope of those sparked some ideas!

      I did get a sorry from the mechanic, saying it was all on him. The boss just said I just went by what I was shown. I didn't look at the paper work. I thought maybe you should before jumping down someones throat.   I am still in the market. Just waiting to find the right one.   Hugs, Kymmie
