Remember:

 

You are not a minority.
You are minoritised.
You are not marginal.
You are marginalised.
It is not your identity.
It is a power and relationship dynamic.
You are on the receiving end of oppression.

This touched me today.

@Mmindy I sure could’ve used this the day before yesterday. Long story… I handed my wife our brand new overpriced Apple magic mouse and a few seconds later she had accidentally dropped it into her soup and of course it no longer worked after that. I’ll admit, I was emotionally down for several hours before realizing… “stuff happens” and I just need to refocus and move on. Yes, it’s easier said then done but I need to print this out and post it somewhere prominent for times just like that.

Susan,

My wife has always been the inside decorator, and our home looks amazing. As I'm winding down my business, and setting up a home office, she keeps looking at all the paintings and certificates I'm staging in the garage, and saying: "You're not bringing any of that into my house. You're not planning on hanging that anywhere!? I just sat in my bedroom and cried, because she says she supports me, then makes me feel like I'm crazy. So it is easier said than done, and I'm sure your next mouse wont try the soup.

 

Hugs,

 

Mindy??️‍⚧️?

That makes you yearn to the sky
Only love can bring the rain
That falls like tears from on high
Love, reign o'er me
Rain on me, rain on me"

"Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves... Live the questions now. Perhaps you will gradually, without noticing it, live along one day into the answer."

      You are in the right place.

      I am about 5 weeks ahead of you ... best wishes to you! For me it has been subtle changes at most so far (if any) ... but I am also on the "beginner's" level of patch, lol ...    Easy

      Oh, another comment.   I am a conservative evangelical with strong Republican leanings. So is my wife, my friends, my family. I disagree with a good amount of what the Republicans are doing, but there it is.  I understand the mindset, I think, a lot better than those who are outside it do.   When you insult Republicans you insult me, my friends, my family.   People like me can struggle with trans issues.   Please consider that in posting.

      Then you are in despair.

      I found this as well. No playacting, they just appear: the finger waggle wave; bracing my elbow on my other arm that's folded across my chest, wrist in the air half-cocked; walking a bit more fiercely... All that. My wife thought I was mocking her at one point!

      I find my lack of time to read the thing frustrating, and I will not really comment until I have read it.  This is a wholly inadequate response.   1.  I think there are some legitimate concern.   2. Thoroughly discussing this will consume many threads.   3. I disagree partially with @MaeBe but there is partial agreement.   4. The context includes what is happening in society that the authors are observing.  It is not an isolated document.   5. Trump, if elected, is as likely to spend his energies going after political opponents as he is to implementing something like this.    6. I reject critical theory, which is based on Marxism.  Marxism has never worked and never will.  Critical theory has problems which would need time to go into, which I do not have.   7. There are groups who have declared war on the nuclear family as problematically patriarchal, and a lot of other terms. They are easy to find on the internet.  This document is reacting to that (see #4 above).   8.  Much of this would have to be legislated, and this is a policy documented.  Implementation would  be most likely different, but that does not mean criticism is unwarranted.

      Sort of bracing myself for flipping, because I am wearing f and of course I wear f and it is natural to wear f and what else would I wear?  The  novelty is long gone out on this.  I wore a bra most of yesterday but we had a Zoom call and I took the bra off because I was concerned about the straps showing.  I missed it.    My body is saying "I am female!  Treat me that way!"   In the past it has screamed about this activity that  I have done to it.

      This is what I'm scared of.  And it's quite possible. Apparently Chicken Little was right.

      Whether it was a hate crime or not, it's still horrible.

      Finally I  am back online   I had to use the help of the contact form (not proud  of that, I always feel embarrassed and shy about contacting people), but here I am   missed all of you

      I'm not happy to admit this, but I usually scream or break things.   Breaking things became a bit of a no no, because It was always a cd or something I liked and it got very expensive to replace stuff

      Probably amusement parks. I've never been to one sadly, but I think I could talk for an hour about them without any problem
