My Certificate Arrived


Guest Zabrak

Recommended Posts

Guest Zabrak

After FOUR MONTHS of my goverment screwing me around, my name change certificate arrived. Now I can go around changing all my ID, bank info and school records.

It was legally changed/approved three months ago, but my government is slow and stupid(I needed this certificate in my hands to go around changing stuff). They LOST my papers, took a month for them to find them. Then they wanted more money. SO I sent it in, nothing happed. I called back, they said they'd get back to me about it...another month. Then I called and found out they had tried to mail it to me twice but it was sent back saying it was the wrong address. I had to re-give them my address because they had PUT IT IN THE COMPUTER WRONG. Yet on my form it was written down correctly. :banghead: Gosh...theres about five more things that happed. I'm so happy its here.

Thanks Sally and Lizzy. I still look younger then my age but I'll slowly catch up.

It feels good, and it also feels really good because now when I go see my doctor they'll call out my male name when its my turn. :lol:

Congrats, man! That's awesome!

You are looking good. My camera likes to make everything look sickly pale...kinda blue. Maybe if we breed our cameras the offspring won't mess up the color.

Lizzy, need I remind you that you are talking about my son, your nephew! :o

Eeewwwhhh!

You aren't looking that far behind your age - it is just that at your age you would like to look older, later on ---

Maybe you won't mind it so much when you show your ID and it has the right name on it.

Enjoy those little things, and remember when they call out that male name - it's you! :D

Love ya,

Sally

Congrats on the certificate. My second name change just came through so I have all the fun of changing documents as well. (Yes, I said second. It's a long story, but basically I needed to have my legal name in Germany and my legal name in the U.S. match., so I had to change my last name in the U.S.)

Haha I suppose so!

@Lizzy:

LMAO

You know you're from the south when you roll over in the morning and ask your sister "wheres my smokes, honny?"

Am I allowed to post that? I blame Lizzy for starting it!

@Martin

Oh man...that would of been annoying to do all that paper work. Well, grats to you too! And thanks.

Congrats Zabrak!

Sorry it took so long but I am glad that you finally have your certificate! My process has been a few months in the making but I go to court on Monday to get my documentation for my legal name change :lol: I understand your frustration in waiting. I had to wait longer because I wanted/needed to also change my last name.

You are looking good too!

Thanks Joe!

I'm keeping my middle and last name, only because its not the same as my parents anyway. LOL I never took my biodads last name, and when my mother got married to my evil step father of doom, I refused to take his last name(but my mother took it). I was 16 and legally allowed to refuse.

Hey, Zab, Hon.....

Congratz on the REAL name!....

Now you'll have to pay attention more when someone calls out your name....

Because if they have to say it more than twice they're gonna think that your hearing is going south!

So...LISTEN UP!

Way to go...

See? Step by step....we'll all make it.....

LOVE

Oh its easy to change IDs in Canada B.C. Theres only two stops and all I got to do is flash my papers. The only thing that sucks is it costs money. Between 10$-25$ each one.

Sucks about all you had to go through to get them, but congratulations on finally getting your papers! It must be awesome to finally be yourself legally?

      I guess this was commonplace in females. But if your prostate gland is still in place this can contribute to urinal difficulties too.

      https://www.hrw.org/news/2024/05/15/peru-chooses-bigotry-medical-services     The Health Ministry tried to put the best face on this unscientific gibberish of a decree, but it won't diminish the harm it will do to the Pervian trans community.  They undoubtedly already suffer from severe discrimination and bigotry in a very macho-opriented society.   Carolyn Marie

      I'd never heard of it until reading this.  From the thread title I thought it had something to do with the state of Idaho.  But perhaps combined with something about Hobbits, which seemed odd.  My brain goes in weird directions.

      I had my surgery 11 years ago, and yes, I too find it much more of an urgent thing than it ever was before.  One possible culprit is going to be T blockers if you are still on them, also the urethral sphincter which holds the pee back is closer to the urethral opening now and more subject to stimulation. When we gotta go we gotta goooooo!!

      I notice that the Wikipedia article does not mention the U.S.A. which I can understand a bit.  The entire month of June here is Pride Month for all the organizations and is tied to the 1969 Stonewall Inn riots in New York and also our medical authorities are also not tied as thoroughly to the WHO as they are to the American Psychological and American Psychiatric Associations which write the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Health which is generally in line with the WHO which does not play as big a part in our medical practices here.  The WHO does not impact us the way it does the other world countries which is why we are in the dark about the day.  Ironically though, one of the U.S. States is named Idaho which sadly is one of the most conservative and frustrating to the U.S. LGBTQ Community.   The day is international though in the sense of other European and Southern Hemisphere countries it seems.

      Hmm. Must have been that pesky 'International' word which made me assume that it was well known! I only became aware of it myself last year.   Brief history: May 17th is the day IDAHOBIT is acknowledged as it is the anniversary of when in 1990 the World Health Organization declassified homosexuality as a mental disorder. It was conceived in 2004 and first celebrated in 2005. It has gone on to include trans folk in 2009 and bi folk in 2015.   International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia - Wikipedia

      A year and a half post op. I've noticed that once the urge to pee hits, I can only hold it for about 15 minutes or so until it gets to the point where I feel like I'm going to piss myself. I used to be able to hold it a lot longer (as I  remember it).  I know my urethra is a bit shorter now, but I don't think it is enough to account for this. Am I imagining it?

      What a great moment @Vidanjali! It's always so cool knowing people are reading you in a way you want to be seen.

      It's also networking.  Sometimes jobs come along because someone knows someone else - these older people might know someone.  "Hey, Ashley," someone might say,"My nephew is looking for love. He likes tall women. Whatcha think? Can he call you?"   Don't discount their ability to match make.  It is about networking.

      He is simply doing to get more votes. He held a Trump for trans during his first run and found out the majority of his voters were against us so he simply followed the crowd.

      The sad part is I'm the third oldest member. One is in their 60's and the other is past 70's. I'm even older than the president lol. It's a younger crowd that's for sure. I like to come here to feel young again lol. 
    • Sally Stone
      Ashley, I think searching for relationships are a lot like searching for jobs, they tend to come along when you aren't actually looking.  Perhaps you could step back from actively searching, at least for a little while, and instead, concentrate on just being out and about as yourself.  Like Mae and Abby have already mentioned, just keep up your volunteering, but don't focus on a need to find someone.  Maybe, just maybe, changing your tactics will result in someone finding you.    I do wish only the best for you, and I hope someone comes along who connects with you.
