Hello everyone, returning with new name


Fate

Recommended Posts

Hello, I used to post here under the name Kaze, but that account seems to have been deleted, so I decided to register under a different name that I use more often now, at least when it isn't already taken. I don't remember exactly when I joined, but I'm pretty sure it was sometime during 2009. I had been a lurker for quite a while, but might be  more active again.

I'm a 33 year old mtf. I haven't started hrt yet due to not having a consistent source of income, but I seem to pass well enough since most people who don't know me address me as a female. I'm not sure how well I really pass, but being short (I'm 4'11") and having long hair I guess helps. I'm not fully out, I am to my parents and my friends as well as online (not using my real name), but the rest of my relatives and friends of the family don't know yet.

Hi

Welcome back :)

I don't know how long ago you were last here. You will notice there have been a few changes, including the site name, but  there should be some familiar faces.

Welcome back Fate.  It sounds as if you've come out to the hardest ones.  I know it was easiest with friends but family was certainly more difficult.  I still have some cousins in Mississippi that haven't met me.  If we do get together i'm sure it will be a bit awkward.

 

Hugs,

Hi Fate,

Welcome back! I guess you could call me one of the changes Tracy talked about. Glad to meet you!

 

Lots of love,

Timber Wolf?

I'm not really sure how the people I have left to tell will end up reacting. I'm not really concerned with it for myself since I'm not really close to anyone I have left to come out to, but since my parents are I'm not sure if it'd cause any issues for them. I'll likely wait until I start hrt for family friends as that'll likely be when I start dressing in specifically female clothes and I run into them from time to time. For my relatives I'm not really sure when I'll come out to them since I haven't talked to any of them except one for I think 10+ years and now I don't live anywhere near them so there's pretty much no chance I'll run into them by at random.

I forget when I was last here, I think it was within a year but I'm not sure. I think it was still the old forum when I was last here, but I don't think I spent much time browsing so I might just not be remembering well. I have seen some familiar names as I've been browsing, although I've never been good with names so while I recognize some I'm not sure if I'd remember people I might've had conversations with on here.

      Not sure.  The perp is a minor.  The problem here is NOT transgender, the problem here is incompetent and criminal administration.  See https://www.nbcwashington.com/news/local/family-of-loudoun-co-student-sexually-assaulted-ineptitude-of-all-involved-is-staggering/3231725/ It is more than annoying that people think the problem here is TG and that other people think the solution is some stupid statewide law.  Like an appendectomy to deal with an ingrown toe nail.    Since Loudon, I recall a boy was asked not to use the girl's restroom at a high school by one of the girls.  He, overwhelming her with height and weight,  assaulted her, claiming he had a right to be there.   Later I think eight girls beat him severely in another girl's restroom.  Again the problem is not transgender, the problem is assaults in restrooms and common courtesy.  TG is used as a smokescreen and it seems to paralyze thought among administrators who do not want to do anything to provoke controversy.

      Time to get with your Primary Care doctor and be referred to a neurologist or an orthopedist.  It could be many things, too many for any of us here to guess at.

      Other than the Boy Scout motto, oath, and law. I use two:   When asked how I'm doing? In all honesty I reply. I would have to make something up to complain. If asked to explain further: I reply. I know someone is having a tougher time than I am, and I pray God blesses them.   I also recite this quote that I have tagged in my signature: Courage, doesn't always roar. Sometimes it's the quiet voice at the end of the day saying, "I will try again tomorrow."-Unknown    Saying these things daily keep me motivated.   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      If this goes on, I am conceding the real possibility of being stopped in WM or somewhere by a concerned citizen who tells me, "Lady, God made you female.  I don't think you should be trying to look like a man. You need to return to your true gender and be comfortable living your life out as a woman."   Begin odd and awkward conversation.  I have been thinking about this this morning.

      There are many MAGA GOP types who are not transphobes, of course. Some MAGA GOP types are transgender.

      I'm hoping to read the next section today.  Many of the reforms they are calling for are good, such as expediting the military procurement process, and have nothing to do with transgender issues.

      I wanted to create a thread about this   Eurodance act from sweden. very good. love his stuff   worth a listen if you never have

      Good afternoon,    I have a young friend who is vegetarian and married to a full on meat eater. They have two areas of their grill clearly designated for their different cooking requirements. When she’s cooking she uses tongs or chopsticks to handle any meats. When he’s cooking he respects her request not to cook her meals on the side where meat has been. They get along fine and respect each other.    When she attends our house, she usually brings her own food, but knows I will clean my grill to meet her requirements. We love and respect her commitment to be vegetarian. I love that she trusts me to make her comfortable when visiting us. There are ways to make it work.    Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      I was going to call it Numbness, then I realised well.. it isn't. basically, yeah, it isn't.   this only happens to me sometimes. I'll be lying down and my legs will.. well, I guess lock?   If I straighten them out, they will unlock- when I roll over again, they will lock again. this lasts for around 10/ 15 minutes I guess   it's not pins and needles either

      In this case the MAGA GOP transphobes Just my opinion of course
    • atlantis63
      so, a close friend wants to cook for me   the issue is, she is a vegitarian and won't handle meat- I, on the other hand, won't handle vegetables- hate the things   every time she goes out to the shop, she comes back with something.. a cake, a fruit smoothie, a coffee, I won't eat any of it. please help me think of something that she could make for me that I'll actually eat   disclaimer: you are talking to the most pickiest eater in the world. good luck
