So as you know I told my son from my other recent post. An incredible feeling. 
Well my daughter was told tonight and it went even better!   
Apparently she has a friend that just went through all this snd she knows how hard it was on her.  
She said she wishes she knew sooner.  She felt so sorry for me.  
I broke down and cried.  
My wife looks over and said. “Well looks like she’s ok with it“  Lol

Wow, more great news ShawnaLeigh...what a relief for you!  One of my grandkids said almost the exact same thing to me after my retelling my life story at a kids level (they were 7 & 9 at the time).  Some children have deep empathy.  It surprised me.  I think it was very helpful for you that her friend had experiences similar to yours.  Sounds like you have some great kids.

Thank you ladies.  It has been wonderful having that stress lifted.  
I still have my uphill battles but my support is growing to an unexpected size.  
it gives me hope for an easier transition.

How wonderful ShawnaLeigh, I'm so glad your children are taking it well.  I actually have a dear friend that is transitioning, and when she told her daughters, one of them said: "well it's about time you finally confirmed what we already knew."  Kids are so intuitive and they are of a generation that doesn't have the hangups ours does.

 

Congrats, hugs,

I had a similar experience about a week ago. I went to a cousin of mines house for dinner in booties and with my nylon bra and fake breasts in. She commented me on them. Her mother my aunt was there and didn't say a thing.

Mahaney that was brave! Telling family and have them process it is one thing, but when they actually see us dressed physically in front of them we can still only hope for a positive reaction. Good news is good newsthough, well done Shawnaleigh I'm happy for you :)

I may be alittle late but congratulations! lol I believe the next few generations aren't going to be as judgemental as people were in the past, My younger brother and sister were both happy af to hear me coming out last summer as well, i was super relieved because of how well they took it and understood, the feeling of being accepted by the people you feel like you have a responsibility to is one of the greatest things ❤️

This here. The difference in attitude from this generation vs. my own generation or my parent's generation is amazing. I hope that we continue to move forward as a culture and a species and away from the prejudices of the past. My niece was great, she was basically, "Neat! I have another aunt." My nephew is seventeen and communicates entirely through grunts and farts. I think he's happy, but it's hard to tell.

LOL I might have the same personality as your nephew minus the farting part ? I like to be a loner so I prefer little to no communication at all unless it was virtually done then I could talk away for hours! I know that its most likely a form of anxiety & i should see someone about it but i'm fine, i'm happy, infact i've never felt this way since the day i found out why i was a "boy" in physical form. Sometimes things take time and patience instead of gouging on pills with 3984520938 side effects. IM NOT AGAINST PILLS, I just try to avoid them WHENEVER i can, But i will take pills whenever i really need them, like my HRT pills but anyways i'm going to shut up before this turns into a messy debate on medication/healthcare lol. 

Can I just say i'm jelly about all of your waving flags though? Any way i could fix this or is this a web dev thing?

      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.

      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

      I think there is some truth in this.  They intend to implement Project 2025, whether or not he spends his energies persecuting the Democrats who have been persecuting him (in his view, a debatable point) and does nothing else.   I have seen numerous accusations that the document is about "Trumpism", whatever that is, and is merely a vehicle for him to become dictator.  From what I have read so far, that is the same sort of truth as the Steele Dossier, denying the validity of a certain laptop, Schiff's non-existence evidence of collaboration and a host of other things, many directly from Biden, that are simply not true.   I will continue reading it.

      Who, precisely, are "they"?

      Wife of mine pointed out that not getting a haircut for a month looks hideous - weird bald patches.  So back to super- short buzz cut.  This morning I braced, looking in the mirror.  I look like a woman trying to pass as a a guy, maybe  a small-breasted woman with enough T treatment to grow a mustache.    I would not believe me if I read what I write about me.  This is nuts.   White t-shirt: that they sell in the back of WM so you can tie-dye them or otherwise decorate them. They are thick and long lasting and slightly fitted, so that they could be a man's.  I like them.   Jeans, flip flops.   I will no longer point out these are women's.  What else would I wear?

      That is all that is necessary. I did the same thing. I must have gotten something wrong.

      Quite right mate! I have been letting my hair grow out again (I cut it all off when I was 18).    I'll never look this good:    But I'll aspire to look my best! ☺️
