They did a wonderful job making the doll actually look like Laverne Cox. -

https://www.nbcnews.com/nbc-out/out-news/trans-womans-photo-used-spread-baseless-online-theory-texas-shooter-rcna30511 I'm not the least surprised by this. This is what conspiracy theorists do. They're also spreading rumors that the shooter was an undocumented alien, which even the Texas governor said is false. Carolyn Marie -

I saw "Theydies & Gentlethem" on a tee-shirt and just found it so delightful. That's all. That's the whole post, lol. P.S. Now if only there were a gender neutral version of "ma'am". OMG, I feel I've been ma'am'ed about a hundred fifty million times this week on the phone as I've been attending to a variety of medical appointments and issues... -

That makes complete sense to me, @Cary . I usually don't tell people that I'm trans/nonbinary/possibly-trans-masc/asexual/panromantic/etc., but I have experienced personal affirmation exploring and identifying with microlabels because doing so has helped me to put more of the puzzle pieces of my past together so that I can increase my potential to experience life as a more integrated human now. For instance, understanding myself as panromantic has helped me to understand certain past behaviors, inclinations, and interactions which seemed most irregular, confusing, and distressing in the past - when I recall a thing that used to seem confounding, and am able to say, ooooohh, that's what that was, then I feel like I make more sense to myself. Moreover, through understanding identification with some microlabels I've experienced healing as I am able to construe certain past stressful experiences in the context of performance, overcompensation, or internalized phobia. I can't say whether there's a general consensus about microlabels within this community, but I dare say that there is a consensus that each of us should do whatever we feel in our hearts is right for us in order to be safe, healthy, and whole. -

Good morning all. 0820hrs and already 60 on the fenceometer. Glad it's going to be a nice day. I need to get some stuff finished on the wagon for our trip tomorrow. We are heading to Lincoln for the weekend. As the 31st is my oldest grandsons birthday. Taking him and my granddaughter to Cars and Coffee Sat at Speedway Motors. I still don't get my wife. yesterday, we go and look at a house. She is OK with me wearing a ladies Harley t with a padded bra. obviously, showing that I have breasts. Go figure. I guess even women don't understand women. We put in an offer for this home. Should hear something later today. Well off to the salt mines in a bit, but first coffee. As always brought to you today by Folgers. Hugs, Kymmie -

Best practice is to call them and ask. I'm covered because of my alopecia but some providers allow scalp prosthetics for trans patients too. I personally didn't get fitted, but I'm like THE adjustable band size. Default fits me great. They'll absolutely fit and style it for you at the boutique though. Honestly it was a great experience. My wig-seller actually warned me off human hair. It's WAY more expensive, doesn't wear as well and it's harder to dye if you're trying to color match. She basically said human hair is great if you want black. But check out Raquel Welch and Renee of Paris depending on what your hair situation is and see what you like. Hugs! -

Good morning everyone, It's going to be a hot day in the shop. Hair up in a ponytail then up under a welding beanie, so I can wear my face-shield for grinding and then the welding helmet. Bib overalls, long sleeve denim shirt, leather apron, and heavy gloves. I'll stay hydrated, and aware of my physical condition, as I sweat away the pounds. On the days I work hard, I don't workout. Fans will be blowing from all directions. Best wishes, positive motivation, and safety for all, Mindy🐛🏳️⚧️🦋 -

Thanks for asking, @Cary. I identify to some extent as Trans Non-Binary . . . but I try to take the advice I've heard here on TP. To work on creating what's right for me, beyond the labels. It's more like creating a story for myself rather work under a label. To chat over coffee does not require me to have read your resume. I will learn about you in context of your own on-going life, not from the name on your lapel tag. It may not be that instantly satisfying, but it's far more interesting. Enjoy the ride. Warning: all new roads have bumps. — Davie -

Is it someone who you can confide in? Is it inner strength and courage? Is it your favorite pet? What helps you get through the pain? -

Hi @KathyLauren I didn’t think about that answer. But you are right. There are times and situations where we must care for ourselves in order to be able to care for others. @CD Rachel I’m glad you heard back from “Marie”. I know how upset you were, and how happy you are. have a great day everyone Willow -

This is pretty much my situation as well. I didn't (and still don't) have the funds for electrolysis and surgery. But I do have HRT. Just for the record, there can be unexpected not-so-fun things. But I'm sure you are aware of that. -

Shipping to New Zealand from France is likely no more expensive than the States. What one do you like? My partner knows French so they can help navigating the website ☺️ -

Thanks! I'm going to try the two sports bra idea. We're headed into winter here, so I can wear some bulky clothes over while I experiment. -

Hey there @Cary , just saw this and am sad it took this long to give feedback, but hope this in some way helps. I guess in a way I could identify a bit with mascandrogyne. I try for the most part to be indifferent about my gender, but would be lying if I said it didn't bother me being identified constantly as female. My natural hormones don't exactly help my situation. Life has just been a long challenge of waves of uncertainty and I'm still not out, also I don't like advertising my lack of interest in play the gender games society is accused to enforcing. I'm not androgynous, more gender non-conforming/bigender. A lot of the experience is just learning to take the hard punches society pulls and not take people's opinions/beliefs to heart. Be yourself, don't reside and force yourself into being what everybody else believes you to be. You're your own reality, that's a mystery to many normies and mostly everybody you don't let in. It's not the most ideal situation, but you do what you can and just try to be safe as best you can. The world isn't the kindest or nicest of places, and can be straight merciless at times, but it's not always terrible. It's a journey and quest for internal/external prosperity to be the best you living free in the present as yourself. You can't help or do much if you're busy burying yourself away. Be free and proud friend, live long and prosper.
