Hi girls....


Wanda Full

Recommended Posts

Hi, I'm Wanda. Trans for 3 years, on HRT for 10 months, fully out to everyone, finally realizing my true self, and trying to enjoy life during these trying times.  I was a social lizard, and no personal interaction is killing me right now. I am able to be myself at work and home, so that is a relief. I'm looking forward to a resolution for this Covid situation, or a full on zombie apocalypse, either is fine right now. Hope to meet members when it's all over...

Hugs, Wanda

I'm more of a social lurker, but the "social" part is sorely missed these days.  I loved to just get a beer, and sit back and watch the people come and go.

I am extremely glad to have this place to come to.

:eek:Now THAT would be some nice drama to break the cabin-fever boredom -- zombies!! Makes me want to break out my Bad Movie collection ?.

 

Similar story here -- out 2 1/2 yrs, on HRT 11 months.  Time both flies and crawls, depending on the activity involved...

 

Feel free to join in on any topic you'd like!

 

Hugs,

Hi Wanda, Nice to meet you. I was also enjoying the socialization aspect of my transition when covid happened. I miss my daily workouts at the Y, church services, going out with friends and just being around other people in general (without masks on especially). None of this mattered like it does now and covid has taken all those opportunities away in short order. I hope things return to normal soon.

 

Congrats to you on getting to this point in your self-acceptance and journey. Hope to read more about it if you’re willing.

 

Warmset Regards,

Susan R?

Hi @Wanda Full! Thanks for joining us! I hope you find this place as awesome and helpful as I do. Out of curiosity, how did you find us? A YouTuber I watch recommended TP so I came here and am so glad I did. I'd love to hear your story sometime when you feel comfy! Bless you! ?

Hi Wanda!  nice to me you also, and Welcome!

I love your photo banner on your profile page!  You look like somebody who really enjoys life (is that what "social lizard" means? ?)

Happy to have you here and look forward to hearing more from you❣️

Hi Girls: I found TGP surfing the interwebs. I was an Admin on a similar site, burned out and had to put it down for a while. I started looking for support sites, and landed here. I look forward to getting back into the swing of things, and look forward to contributing. By the term social lizard, I mean I turned into a different person when I was out and about. Pre-trans, I was very conservative and chill, put on pumps and a skater skirt, next thing you know, I'm on stage. Being Wanda has allowed me to come alive and enjoy life.

Welcome aboard @Wanda Full.  I'm glad you found us and joined!!  I've become more social after transition too.  Right now I want to travel sooo bad.  Looks like you were having a grand time with the band!

 

Cheers, 

Jani

      Thank you. It seemed to me when I was driving home that I had a bit more bounce in the rear end over bumps so I'm wondering if the frame was bent. I will have them check it tomorrow morning when the do the appraisal.

      There is just a feeling that this is normal when I wear f clothes.  As a biological male I am supposed to, I suppose, experience dysphoria in f clothes. Instead it is reversed.  Sometimes there is euphoria about being a girl, but it is because my self-perception is lining up with my self-expression. Clothing is actually secondary.  Or third.  Secondary is what my body looks like.  I am a girl regardless of what I look like. I just am one.  As I get used to this I will probably stop talking about it.  Most women do not go around announcing they are women all the time.  They talk about themselves but the presupposition is that they are women.  Never a matter of debate.

      Do you feel euphoria when wearing feminine clothes? I'm curious about why you think you are supposed to feel dysphoria in fem clothes. I totally get why you would feel dysphoria with masc clothes. For me what urged my transition forwards was the amount of gender euphoria I got from dressing like a guy , and my dysphoria from wearing anything remotely fem got worse and worse until i get rid of evey fem article in my wardrobe and all my makeup, so I could concentrate on just being me and chasing the euphoria. Dysphoria didn't go away though, because I've been misgendered constantly and it hurts more when dressed in my man clothes . However now I'm on T, my doubts and dysphoria have massively lifted and I'm excited to see the masc changes to my body happening. I do have to learn patience though lol.

      You're still cool to this Catholic... no worries... ;-)

      Well that's no way to start off a birthday. Be sure to look at your frame just behind your rear axle to make sure it wasn't bent. When I was rear ended... At first look it appeared that my bumper was folded down, however the frame was bent which also bent the floor of the bed. I'm glad everyone is okay    Happy Birthday,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      Well, I am a veteran.  I did manage to get an honorable discharge - just barely.  I was drafted to start with, and I wasn't wild about it.  But I figured it was my duty as a citizen, so there's that.  TBH I find it hard to stomach people who dodged the draft, going on and on about being such "patriots" and all, and literally hugging the flag. My egg hadn't cracked yet when I was serving, so I don't think being trans directly affected my time in uniform.  But there was most likely some subconscious stuff. Sorry, I don't think this is much use to you.

      That was just one reference that came up.  I originally saw it somewhere else.  Technically, he did call for the eradication of "transgenderism".  But it would be hard to get rid of that (whatever it is) with us still here.     Yeah, later, when he got called out on it.   I don't really see how you can say this.  Sure he doesn't know what he's talking about, but the damage is real.   I will bend over backwards to give someone the benefit of the doubt.  But at some point…. I'm just not as limber any more.   They can say what they want, but actions speak louder than words, and when I see what is happening in red states it is obvious.  They do want to get rid of us.  I'm tired of pretending they don't.

      For a time I would get an anxiety attack when I had to dress in male mode.  Haven't tried it in a while.

      Indeed! Most happiest of Birthdays to you!

      Happy birthday @April Marie!
    • April Marie
      Thank for the birthday wishes, everyone!!!   It started great...and then I was rear-ended at a highway construction site this morning. I'm OK. The woman who hit me was shaken - was going fast enough to deploy her air bags. I was at dead stop. Her car had to be towed away. My truck too a hit to the tailgate and the bumper. It seems OK otherwise but I'll know tomorrow when they do the appraisal.   UGH!   Happy Birthday to Me!! :-)

      "How did it go yesterday? Any trouble in Millville?" He shook his head. "Your biscuits and gravy are great." "Mama's recipe. She taught this girl to COOK." "Uh-huh.  Well, it rained the whole time.  We did the ground breaking in pouring rain.  Your friend, the former head of manufacturing, is now on the Board.  It looks like sunshine down there, he told me, with the missile plant starting up and they re-hired all the people they fired.  Millville Products is as it was.  And the Chinese money is still coming.  That was just an ugly rumor.  Gibson quit, but you knew that." "Missile plant, huh.  Yeah.  Gibson and I may go into business.  But I have been thinking-" "Yeah.  It's been declassified.  I can tell you they made missiles for Navy ships and planes during World War 2. It was shut down after Vietnam.  Several other supporting companies are moving in - paint, electronics assembly, a few others - that support missile production." "Okay."

      That is, it's a great document in that it seems to clearly define things, not that I'm in agreement with it.

      https://www.digitaltransgenderarchive.net/col/cj82k733h   I am now dissatisfied with the thread title because it seems to exclude Catholics and maybe others .  I am not sure what to change it to, so I will fuss over THAT now.

      I'm on the ballot being mailed tomorrow for an open US Rep seat.  I have both an honorable discharge and an other than honorable discharge.  I told the Navy that I was smoking pot every day right after Y2K.  I told them that while I was in the Navy, I substituted alcohol for marijuana and that the alcohol was making me violently sick.  After 5+ years of that, I said enough is enough and I went back to smoking pot.  I got better and I felt like the quality of my work was improving.   I certainly wasn't the perfect military member, but I excelled at my job and earned a promotion in boot camp.  They drug tested our unit several times after I told them I was smoking pot and I may have never tested positive.  I was opening smoking pot in the Navy for 3 or 4 months before they decided to kick me out.  At my captain's mast, the captain tried to shame me by saying I looked bad in uniform and that I was a disgrace, but all my evaluations said that I looked great in uniform.  I took great pride in looking good in my dress blues and whites.  Sure, I had grown my hair out a little bit (you know, it's not like I became trans in my 50's all the sudden) and I was enjoying some green anodized eye glasses :)   I think that people get very emotional about these kinds of issues when they should be concentrating more on engineering things and work performance.  I think we should take the lead and talk about our professional lives more instead of focusing on this type of politics.  That's a great document and I saved the PDF to my hard drive.  I think we should have more respect for the production that China is doing instead of concentrating on raising a military defense against them.  I personally disliked the hazing rituals in the Navy and think our military would be better off with being more accepting and intelligent.
