Good morning everyone,

 

My first two cups of coffee and a travel mug, were home brew Black Rifle Coffee. C♠️F :coffee:

 

I'm in the waiting room of Andy Mohr Ford having my F-250 worked on... Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) Sensor is telling me I'm out of DEF, even though I added two jugs. The coffee here is just okay, however the Customer Waiting/Business Center it as good as any Hotel I've been in.

 

@KymmieLI'm glad you're seeking family counseling, and there's nothing wrong with being fashionable in your manor of dress. On another note, I'm the oldest of five siblings and no mater who started the ruckus, we all got the same punishment. My parents said that way they could be sure to get the perpetrator.

 

Hugs for all, (still masked)

I have a friend that got a paratenial bottom surgery.  Did not need electrolysis and self lubricates according to her.

 

I love color but as a man did not.

 

keep-up the counseling

My coffee tastes better than usual this morning.

 

The 80's Ugh. Father and step-mother were so unGodly strict and conservative. I was stuck wearing preppy K-Mart clothes ? when I was drawn to (in a non-sexual way) big hair and newspaper skirts. Of course, now it all makes sense.

 

We still haven't had our "big talk". She hasn't been feeling well, I guess it's on her schedule. But how can she be mad at me now? I got us scheduled for the covid vaccine where her and her mother were making zero headway getting in. I had to pull a few strings at work but they were all happy to help. I've been able to get so much done by just firmly stating my case and not getting angry about things.

 

We got the our roof replaced yesterday. I did realize how bad the old one was but then again it snowed right after we moved in. Freaking 30k for a roof but it does come with a 50 year, unconditional, never pro-rated, transferable warranty. It's a lot of money but I shouldn't be playing on roof-tops anymore and won't have to. It will never be my problem again.

 

I woke up to my stimulus check in my account so I already started filling out the paperwork for my name change. Unfortunately I will have to wait a week or two to file it. I have to go in person. Today would be good since I took the day off to get the vaccine but I don't trust the courthouse to move swiftly enough to get out in time. Arg! It's right there. Corrected name! Just...out...of...reach! Time for a deep breath.

I read this on someone's facebook feed this morning. <sputter...> {clean up coffee spill...}

 

"Get some roosters for eggs and raise some bulls for milk. Then you'll see that gender matters. Especially at milking time."
 

So should one of the manliest men be selected to impregnate all the women? Should we castrate the rest?

Then it's probably good that nobody wants to eat anything that comes out of my body.

 

Hugs!

Hi everyone 

 

I just wanted you to know that starting today, I am Out, Full Time!  I don’t no longer care who sees me.  This was done with the full support of my wife.

Well my wife and son are on their way to Lincoln , NE. They got home and with in a Half hour was gone. My wife did ask me to come. Being that we are mending fences.  but I said no. I didn't want to be stuck in a hotel room while my wife and youngest are seeing our grand kids.

 

I got the when are you talking to your son question. I didn't want to be a smart alack. I said soon. But I wanted to say. When ever he wants to be my son again. or I have made myself clear. Don't know what my son was told by my wife. Wither or not she tells them. I asked my wife if she would tell my grand son and Daughter the truth  of why I wasn't visiting them. That there parents didn't want me too. but probably either won't be told or not told like I asked it be. making me the bad guy.

My wife and I finally had our talk. It started this morning, finally and it was calm and rational. It went really good. Apparently the root cause of our conflict is that I didn't trust her enough to tell her what I was going through. She paralleled my inner struggle to her life-long fight with her weight. We now have a lot more understanding of each other so for now at least we're good and I really do have her support and she does understand that I am doing this for me.

 

We also got our first round of covid shots today. While we we were there the staff used she/her with me without any prompting and my wife didn't argue with them although she used he/him. On the way home she asked me if I had used the ladies or men's room while getting our shots. I replied honestly that I had. I think maybe she didn't understand why until I asked how she thought things would have gone for me if I used the men's room. This lead into me trying to explain all the different genders and what they mean. She had no idea that there are trans-guys too. I'm going to direct her to Jackie's YouTube videos so she can learn more.

 

A couple days ago I told my wife about a conversation I had with my mother. I had asked my mother if I was going to have any problems with her family when I go up there this summer. She said if I tone down my clothing I "should be" OK. Just jeans and a t-shirt like the other girls. I had to explain that I wasn't going to show up in a pair of booty shorts and bikini top. Today my wife decided to give me her opinion on it. She out-right told me that I am going to wear cute dress and high heels. So she wants me to be hyper-feminine for a couple days? Try to stop me. She also told me a few things she wants to tell my mother but was using "son" when refering to me, I had to stop her and suggested she uses daughter instead. OMG! she is all for it. She is really pushing to show my family how accepting and supportive she is. Kinda sucks it's not until the end of July.

Umm...wow, yea some people are weird simpletons. Yea, gender matters, that's why it matters that I'm not gendered my birth sex of male. Duh. I'll be sure to conveniently align my gender with my birth sex if I ever find myself living as some farmer's poultry/beef livestock.

 

This is why (speaking as a former programmer highly trained in connecting basic processes with their emergent results) I don't go anywhere near "social media". Both the whole business model, and the algorithms, are all fundamentally rooted around deliberately "maximizing user 'engagement'" by deliberately facilitating the emergence of armchair quarterback-led "information silos" and the moderm equivalant of kangaroo-court "voting".

@ElizabethStar can I have your wife talk to mine?

 

I think she'll be more supportive out in the world then she is at home, along that same line of being openly supportive and progressive.

 

So happy for you!

Congratulations @ElizabethStar! That sounds like it went really well! Next up: Clothes shopping with the spouse! Great fun and you can share a dressing room. I mean how ELSE are you going to get that cute dress.

 

Also a little jealous, I'm tall so finding a dress that hits me right can be a little challenging.

 

Hugs!

      https://apnews.com/article/title-ix-sexual-assault-transgender-sports-d0fc0ab7515de02b8e4403d0481dc1e7   The revised regulations don't touch on trans athletes; which I totally understand, as that's become a third rail issue and this is an election year.  But the other changes seem pretty sensible, and will obviously result in immediate right wing lawsuits.   Carolyn Marie

      They may win a few battles but not the war! as @Davie pointed out there is little truth if it full of lies, inconsistencies, and ignores evidence to the contrary. I saw this article earlier and have to agree here. Truth will win. This isn’t the first time this tactic has been tried. Always stick with the truth!
    • Susan R
      Welcome @violet r! Glad you joined our forum and got through the hardest part…that first post. As many have mentioned, we are more than accepting here as we affirm your gender identity and hold no judgement, whatsoever. There’s so much here on this forum, I think you’ll find very helpful. If you have trouble finding an answer just reach out, try the search but starting a new thread is usually best to get some quick answers. Many are here for various transgender related issues but many, if not all, are here to help one another if we can. It’s great to have you onboard.   Warmest Regards, Susan R🌷

      good evening   good day at work today.  I did do some things a little out of normal but everything was completed successfully.  As I said earlier, the Asst Mgr was my second today.  I don’t think she was too happy about that.  Several customers asked her where Richard was her answer was the manager cut his hours.  Well that is only part of the story,  his hours were cut just like mine were and several others but in his case he made demands about his hours that couldn’t be met.  But instead of making some non complaining remark about it she made sure to lay it all on the manager, thus throwing the manager under the bus.  Similarly when asked why she hadn’t been at work early mornings, she said she was being punished by the manager.  Well that’s partly true, she wouldn’t do what the manager told her to do so she took her off opening.  But secondarily she didn’t have a car to drive temporarily.  You can’t open the store without a car because who ever opens has tasks that require them to leave the store, so it was  at least partly her own fault.  But she chose to throw the manager under the bus for that.  I think she is asking to be fired for insubordination.  And if the manager gets these conversations off the security tape tomorrow she just might get her wish.   im pretty close to being ready to take the asst position but there isn’t anyone ready to take over my job, at least not at our store.  I suppose the other shift lead could if she is able to work earlier shifts and if the other closers were just a bit more reliable.   Ive been wanting some homefried chicken.  We found a BBQ place not far away that had such a chicken but I is made fresh when ordered so it has a 30 minute wait.  It was worth the wait and the other things we tried were also good.  Another restaurant on the list.  At least half of what we ordered came home for another meal.   i get to sleep in tomorrow, I go to work at 1:30!   Willow

      It was nine thirty.  Saturday morning had rolled around more quickly than Taylor could believe.  She groaned, whined, thought of a million excuses why she should just stay in bed and knock the alarm across the room.  But it would still be going on, and so would the promise to Bob: when the gi came in, she would be in. There it was in its nice package, out where she could not miss it.  Why didn't she hide it?  She shook her head.   Up she got.  Sometimes you just do.  Her hair was a wreck. She patted it down and went to the bathroom.  Nine forty five. Shower later. No make up. She hated kara-tay especially at an ungodly early hour on a Saturday morning. Bagel. Instant coffee.  She was five minutes away when she realized she had forgotten the gi.  Back she went.   Into the dojo.  She had about five minutes to get the gi on.  She attempted to slip in unnoticed and go to the little restroom. Someone barked something out in Japanese or something, and there was a dead silence.  She turned to see what was going on. Both classes were getting into their lines, but everyone, including Bob, was bowing slightly. To her. Bob nodded, and she returned the bow.  Life started again. She was touched.   Bowing three times. Oath. Kata.  She was facing off with Judy as her partner.  Judy looked worried.   "Sometimes you just gotta pick yourself up and try again," Taylor told her. She nodded. "Let's do this."   Lunge punch and lower block.  They traded off like nothing had happened the last weekend.  Lunge punch and middle block. Lunge punch and upper block.  It was kind of like dancing. Taylor enjoyed it.  She wanted to learn more.  Brown-belt Maggie adjusted position of limbs and hips for both Taylor and Judy, telling them when she was about to do something: elbow up a bit".    "How'd you do?" Bob asked her later.  They had both gone home and showered. Now they were in a booth at a fast food place.   "I was kind of disappointed class ended. I was ready for more."   "That's my trooper."   "I'm not allowing you in my apartment until we are married," she said suddenly.   "You think I am a problem?"   "No.  I think you are safe. You passed the test  I am the problem here."   "Okay."   "What did the doctor tell you?"   "It's complicated.  More tests coming.  Like getting into college.  I got a letter back.  It seems there is this big fat M on my transcript and my current picture is not an M type picture.  I have to write a letter and send them notarized proofs and stuff. Just delays. This is a pain. Nothing cut and dried."   "I will say.  I'm glad I'm not transgender."   "Hah. You are pulled into my world.  You are involved in this stuff as much as I am, and, as you put it, of your own free will."   "You are worth it."   "I hope so."   "I know so."

      On the way back to her desk she was interrupted by six short, urgent conversations that had to be attended to. Then she slipped into the women's room and locked the stall door.  She took a deep breath, then another, and allowed herself to shake for five minutes,  Then deep breathing, ten in and ten out, stretch up, touch the floor, neck rolls and she was fine. She used the toilet and a woman knocked and said, "Taylor, are you okay?"   "Ready to conquer the world!"  on her way out she found her makeup was fine.  Three stalls, two sinks.  If she ever designed a women's room with three stalls, there would be four sinks, with plenty of space to plunk your stuff down between them.   She met a deferential Karen.  "Here is the branding I came up with," she said.  And she went back to working as hard as Brenda and Mary, who looked up worriedly and then went back to the proposal.   Shortly before 5:00 she received an email with the title Consolidation and Compensation.  In it she learned that the position of office manager was eliminated, and the current office manager was to become the chief executive officer. The former CEO, along with the CFO, the chief legal officer, and sundry staff, had been terminated, per the Board of Directors.  Effective immediately everyone would receive a base salary of $20,000 with a commission to be set by the individual's supervisor.  Each supervisor would be given a certain percentage to distribute.  Most functions they had been handled would be outsourced as needed.   "The question of what profit was made last year is frequent enough to be answered.  The company lost over 500,000 in fiscal 2023.  At this point further cuts are not anticipated.  We will be strategically adding positions that will enhance our profits. Hard work is expected of everyone."   Her two web guys had been complaining because their games had been remotely uninstalled.  After the memo came out they were absolutely silent.  That gave her an idea, and after an exchange of emails they were reassigned to maintenance out at the plant, effective tomorrow morning.  There were lots of weeds that needed pulling, if nothing else. That email went out after they left early, for the day.  The maintenance foreman was a no-nonsense type who did not tolerate slacking, and they would learn a thing or two.  This also freed up two spaces for her to put new people.

      So…I didn’t know your Facebook avatar was public. So, on my birthday, a couple people used a group avatar message to wish me a happy birthday…and now my Facebook friends can see a short video of my female avatar dancing with an old friend’s and another with my uncle’s avatars. So am I “Facebook out” now? 😬

      No, they are not. Truth wins in the end and this report is full of lies that poison the whole thing: see this: "Dr. Cass Backpedals From Review: HRT, Blockers Should Be Made Available it's said. Dr. Cass's latest statements are likely to cast more doubt on the validity of the study, which has come under fire for disregarding substantial evidence on trans care." https://www.erininthemorning.com/p/dr-cass-backpedals-from-review-hrt?publication_id=994764&post_id=143743897&isFreemail=true&r=rebf4&triedRedirect=true I hope Dr. Cass wins The Mengele Award for it.

      Boyfriend and I went to a support group for spouses dating or married to a transgender person on Tuesday night for the first time.It was amazing meeting other couples like us.One was a genetic woman whom has been dating a transgender male for the first time and she is supporting his transition.Us,they were amazed by us agreeing on something we said,love and acceptance have brought us together

      By which I mean there is a cultural stereotype of what a man is, and one of what a woman is.  Even worse, of what a transgender person is.   You be you.   I read of a boy who thought he was a girl because he did not adhere to some (rather toxic) conceptions of what it means to be a man, so he decided he was a girl.  He was told he didn't have to conform to stereotype and got happy. "You mean I don't have to transition?" He didn't want to, and was relieved.   Once upon a time if you were transgender they told you either you transition or die.   Incorporate the best of what it means to be a man and the best of what it means to be a woman as much as you possibly can, and let the rest go.  Be fully human. Be alive. Don't conform to some cultural crud.

      Except for this thung thwister: Theophilus Thistle, the successful thistle sifter, in sifting a sieve full of unsifted thistles, thrust three-thousand thistles through the thick of his thumb. Now if, Theophilus Thistle, the successful thistle sifter, in sifting a sieve full of of unsifted thistles, thrust three-thousand thistles through the thick of his thumb, how many thistles can'st thou thrust through the thick of thy thumb . . . in sifting a sieve-full of unsifted thistles? Success to the successful thistle sifter!
