@JustineMI have that exact headband in my rotation of headbands.

Thanks for being there, and I'm proud that you're wearing your Body-armor.

Do they make it in a feminine version with pleated areas for the growing breasts?

 

Best wishes, and stay safe,

 

Mindy??️‍⚧️?

I have two of them and they are my favorites! Really good at covering a receding hairline lol. Unfortunately they do not make any special armor for women that I know of. (My company probably wouldn’t supply it anyway) 

@Teri Anne it made things quite sensitive, calmed down somewhat over the course of the day but woo this girl needs a break!

working the consignment shop today so once again channeled Liz with the all black look and realized I needed some contrast so the faux leather snakeskin pattern blazer to complete the look

 

Loving the look... I had much the same idea.

Wow, girl!  You rock the Kevlar vest! I can only imagine how uncomfortable that is with growing breasts. To answer Mindy's question--in 24 years in the military and a couple in law enforcement, I've never seen body armor tailored for women. That incudes all tyoes of soft armor (ie: Kevlar and its variants), vests with SAPI plates, hard shell armor or any other combination. I swear, it's made to be and hot, confining and uncomfortable as is possible.

Thank @Marcie Jensenfor the update, as a firefighter I was retired before they started making our EMS personal wear them. I am truly grateful for anyone who wears one as a part of their daily work attire. 
 

@Jackie C. you are looking great, as a thrift store shopper.

 

Hugs

I must be doing something right though! Even with the armor and uniform about half my interactions today were “she” or “ma’am”

Fixin’ to head out to the annual Castle Rock Starlighting holiday event. I bought the skirt and have been trying to find other things to go with it. I walked to the event from my house so, of course, it rained.

love the outfit Erica. Our pups could be cousins. Lol. 
we’re in sync for sure Jackie. 

today it’s receptionist duty. Skinny jeans with a Loft top. It’s resells thin material so the cardigan was necessary. Kinda going brass and copper on the jewelry. And of course, almost knee high ox blood riding boots.

Thanks everyone for the compliments. The all black look appears to be contagious, I love it.  You all look amazing and it gives me a lot of inspiration for when I feel like wearing color.

Yesterday, I was coming out of a Panera Bread restaurant after getting coffee.  As I was walking to the car a man was approaching from the other direction.  As he got within earshot he complimented me on my boots.  He went on to say he liked the colder weather because more women wear boots.

 

Most men either don't acknowledge fashion or they just aren't observant enough to notice.  I don't want to assume, but I wondered immediately if he might be trans himself.  It doesn't really matter, his compliment was flattering just the same.  

 

Here are the boots (and outfit) I was wearing at the time.

I'm going to play the age game today.

The old picture of me was back in 2004, I had only been "OUT" 4 years.

The fresh picture is me today as I type this.

Cool old Electra guitar I have had that model and the Les Paul MPC model. Those models are getting pricey these last few years IF you have all the modules that came with them.

You you look fabulous by the way.

This is what I'm into today. Not a thing, just chillin on a chilly day.

I used to have real long hair, cut it all off, now I'm 1 year and 6 months after my last cut.

I've also had 100 hours of electrolysis, been about 13 years sense my last session.

      Major mood, right here ^^^    I've listened to Lumineers to a long time (a major portion of it by osmosis via my mom), so that is almost painfully relatable
    • RaineOnYourParade
      As for getting a button-up/formal pants suit, you can try to talk to her more -- Cis women in tuxes have worn tuxes in recent years, after all, (for example, Zendaya) so it can still be a relatively safe topic. For jumpsuits, I'd recommend going with a simple one with a blazer, if you can -- this'll make it look overall more masculine. There's a lot of good brands, but going for one without a lot of extra glitz on it will make it look less feminine under a blazer. I don't know many specific brands though since I usually just get my stuff from chain stores, sorry :<   When it comes to your hair, if you can't cut it, you can look up tutorials on fluffing it up instead. If you can pull it off, it can look a lot shorter and more androgynous instead!

      As far as I'm aware, he wasn't -- he just sometimes wore skirts, which was why it was a question in the first place.   In my opinion, part of that is because of the way press spares attention on issues like that. As a bit of a true crime nut and what I see: Child predator cases' (and cases of a sexual nature in general) press focus on those with an AMAB perpetrator generally, and very rarely are AFAB perpetrators given much press time or even getting tried due to a whole bunch of issues I'm not gonna get into. Because of this, when you see these types of cases and a boy is the victim, it's almost always a queer person who is the one who committed a crime that gets press. Therefore, with the amount of cases seen with this type of perpetrator (and due to the fact "99% of queer people are not sexual criminals" doesn't attract eyes), the human brain can kind of naturally makes an association with it. It's not right, but it's also a fault I think falls partially on the media.   That's all my opinion, though!   This is extra confusing to me, as a feminine man is usually viewed as gay. If someone is refusing the acknowledge the existence of trans people, then gay would be the societal connection that comes after, I think. So, that sorta implies that trans women wouldn't be interested in women in the first place by those assumptions? Of course, trans lesbians exist (most trans women I know like women, actually), but it's a little ridiculous to me that people will deny trans people's existence, call all feminine AMAB people gay, and say that trans people are looking to peep all in the same breath.   Wow, this was a lot longer of a response than I was planning to write--

      For one thing, the practice of putting into office wholly unqualified people simply because of racial, sexual or national characteristics.  It is no accident that Karine is a Haitian immigrant, Black and lesbian.  Kamala Harris is a Black female. Pete Buttigieg is gay.  Often you find that Biden explicitly stated that this is why he hired them, not because of competence, but because they checked so many boxes on his little list.  It makes a mockery of people and is a disservice to the US.

      I am not sure why people are in favor of unaccountable agencies with bloated budgets and wasteful spending. 
    • Abigail Genevieve
      What about it?
    • SydneyAngel
      Hey girl  I had a problem like you happen to me also. In my first year of estrogen I had a period where my level were good then they got really bad where my testosterone spike high.  I felt like you with all that disforia coming hard. Our bodies need time to adjust. The process is a real pain in the beginning. It levels out eventually and you don't even think about it. Hang in there hugs

      Biden's woke agenda?
    • KatieSC
      I wonder if there will be law enforcement procedural shows coming this fall. I can imagine Law and Order: Genital Crimes Unit, or perhaps, FBI: Domestic Genitalia. Then again, maybe they will dedicate a CSI program about the dedicated members of the Oklahoma State Police Genital Screening Unit. Good to know that those Oklahomans have their priorities squared away.

      Protections? Well, when they mandate that some who is transgender can get facial and genital electrolysis paid as it is essential to affirming care, or when they mandate and pay for facial feminization surgery, speech therapy/voice affirmation surgery, I will believe that the order is effective. One of biggest hurdles for many transgender individuals is the cost of care. I remember when my one insurance company tried to say that my speech therapy and voice surgery were "cosmetic". I remember when they blocked paying for my facial surgery. I remember the fight I had to get electrolysis. These procedures could save someone's life if the procedures help the individual successfully transition, and are no longer misgendered.

      I don't think it should be.  Nor do I see Project 2025 as pushing Christian nationalism.
    • Abigail Genevieve
      The agencies are supposed to work for him.  The problem, as conservatives found out in Trump 1, was they will ignore the president and do their own thing.  The agencies are supposed to be under his control.   Congress delegated some of its law making authority to the agencies, which is another problem.   The bloated federal government needs to be trimmed.  Dept Education is worthless - test scores have dropped since it was instituted in the Carter administration consistently, and it is currently implementing Biden's woke agenda more than doing anything else.

      I hope to eventually wear a suit for dance but don't know what exactly to look for. I feel like jumpsuit is safe option but I have been interested in wearing button up and formal pants. Is there a certain brand i should look for or sites I should look at for tips? My mom is not exactly keen on me wearing too masc clothing like suits just yet but is okay with jumpsuits. Also is there hair styling tips availible, my hair looks like image below. I might be able to get shorter haircut like pixie but am not sure yet.

      It’s never been about him, but he is the Presidential nominee for the Presidency that starts in…2025. I don’t see a lot of conflation that this is a “Trump doctrine”, it a doctrine that benefits him surely, but it is a plan to instill crony governance and enact very Christian conservative (if not purely Christian nationalist) “order” on the country. If you don’t see this as the Right doubling down on Big G government, I don’t know what to tell them. Getting rid of agencies and giving the authority directly to the Executive isn’t shrinking government. It’s consolidation power. 
    • MaeBe
      It is the made up ideology they believe trans people are pushing on the world, those “poor young girls who are being coerced into believing they are men” and the “perverts who put on dresses and think they’re girls”. The anti-LGBTQ+ movement came up with the term. Being trans = you believe in trans ideology/transgenderism, supporting trans people = the same.   In the end anyone that acts on or thinks gender is anything but what is in your pants is a “transgenderist”, why not make it a word if it’s not, there is no real grey area. Unless you acknowledge there is transgenderism, but use your knowledge to “correct it”.  So I guess there could be transgenderist conversion “therapists”.  Face it, we deface the America they want. Land of the Free and Home of the Brave? I think being out and queer is pretty brave. And freedom shouldn’t just be for those who push a narrow “Christian ideology” as the “true” governing model.
