Sadly, it being xmas, and family friends every day, "I've" been locked away in the wardrobe for 10 days.  Can't wait for January 3rd.

And this is roughly what I wore on New Years Day when I couldn’t bear to (pretend to) be a boy again and decided to go to MONA gallery in Hobart. This was my first ever day outing as Bette/Betty. I made friends! It was wonderful.

(I wore sneakers again on New Years Day though, so as not to get gallery feet.)

 

This is me living my dream of having coffee at a cafe in a dress:

One more: this is me at my (cisgender male) friend’s house in Hobart, where I stayed the last two nights. He was so supportive and his teenage children were absolutely respectful, calling me “she/her” and Bette. I have a great friend in his daughter, I think. My heart is full ❤️❤️❤️

Happy New Year everyone. I know I don’t post here often. I have been a bit shy to because I felt my transition was going so slowly. (Sometimes I even questioned if I would transition after all.) But I love this forum and I thank you all for sharing and existing. When I am confused I often look here to find answers and I am never disappointed by the wisdom and helpful facts I find.

 

Again, thanks.

 

Humbly,

Bette

Everyone looks so amazing. I get so much inspiration from this thread.

 

That reminds me. Mom shared a secret about tights that I thought I'd share with all of my sisters who find themselves as women who never got to be girls. If your tights ride down? They're too big. Go down a size. I'm currently wearing mediums and they're staying up just fine (same cut as the ones you modeled a couple days back Liz).

 

Hugs!

Great info Jackie C.

One of the very first cis gender girl friends/shopping partners taught me that as well. That applies to leggings as well.

Due to last night's snow fall I had to go run the snowblower. I decided to wear black for contrast.

That’s the best contrast, and it looks good.

My partner got me a new dress as a Christmas gift. 

 

That sure is a nice dress, and it really suits you.

I'm going to post a throw back pix.

This is me many years ago practicing my style.

I want all here to know I had been going through training.

Who was training me?

The classes I were attending trained me.

The best part of those classes?

Haven’t posted in a bit. Been way too stressed trying to get settled in new place and prepared for international travel.  Finally made it and settled into vacation. Hello from the island of Bonaire. Mostly bathing suits, beach wrap/sarong and wetsuits. Yes, that’s my bikini hanging behind me. Sun was setting and the wet suit was cold so….

You look fantastic and super-happy. If I tried wearing ANY of that around here... well, hypothermia. Brr.

 

Hugs!

      I'm thinking about some interactions yesterday I did, while presenting as male but acting as female, that were far better than I did when I was presenting as male and acting as male.  #girlunderhood. I do a crappy job at acting as male and I am giving it up.  I am not talking about feminine gestures or presentation but just relating as a woman.  People don't realize I am doing it but it is a whole lot easier to do.   You don't just put on a dress and BOOM you are a girl.  You are a girl and you put on a dress.  Or not. Whether I am in jeans or a skirt (I wish, wife would have lots to say) I am a girl.  I don't need $250 in makeup and heels and hose and all that.  I don't need surgery. Honey, I have arrived.  Now I have to work out how that best works in my life, causing the minimal damage and creating the maximum good, but I have more working room.   Oh, and I am still pissed off at everyone and everything. #Contradictory.

      @Willow it is certainly possible that my husband planned it. Placing me in the path of an opportunity....he certainly does things like that. GF has done some work for the company as an outside consultant, so I'm sure the company owner knows what potential resources are around.    It could also have just happened randomly. He has taken me to work with him before, just because he likes to have me around. I remember one time that I fell asleep with my head in his lap, and he held a meeting with his subordinates without waking me and making me move.  The company culture is family oriented and relaxed.

      The photo is great.  Software is phenomenal but it also is sort of a promise of things to come. Years ago this sort of thing took a photographer and Photoshop and all sorts of things and you would say, "I can look like THIS??"   Me, I am a duck.  That's from my driver's license.  Just kidding.

      I lucked into that picture. I took like 10 before that, which appropriately make me look like a donkey. ;)   Thank you so much for the compliment!

      This is a great analogy. The statement is true as it relates to the tree. The analogy fits because we as a LGBTQIA community are stronger when we stand together. It also work here on Transgender Pulse Forums. The support I feel from so many others has made me comfortable with my stance, because I'm in a beautiful forest of friends. So when I'm out alone and confronted. I can respond and act like the single tree in the field, surviving whatever comes my way. My roots reach back and communicate with others like me.    Standing Strong,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      Mindy, that would be so awesome of you.  Please make the edit for me, and thank you so much!

      M.   The term bigender works for me because after taking the time to explore my feelings, I kept coming to the same conclusion, that while I felt an overpowering need to express my inner woman, I also enjoyed being a man.  I realized that my personality was equal parts man and woman and to be happy and fulfilled, I needed to express both sides.  There are challenges living a life of two-gender expression, but I'll expand on some of those in future posts.     Hugs,   Sally

      Sally, a moderator can edit the post adding "Post 3" if you would like. Let me know and I'll be glad to take care of it. That way your numbering system is in tact.   Hugs,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      I thought Hey, I can't be experiencing Gender destroyer because it doesn't fit the narrative, but Hey I can. I am experiencing mild discomfort in relation to my gender. Because and that can be a form of mild form of it this forum because their elements of my gender that are out of alignment with my sign gender at birth. There are elements of my gender I have been holding back on some I did not even know for fear it did not fit was told was not very manly or in some other way not correct for someone who is an amab. I tried embracing and expressing some of these parts of me even for just a little bit every once in a while and it feels like a relief to me like a weight has been lifted.
