These laws certainly seem unconstitutional to me. But I have less faith in the courts than I used to. -

Tucker is a [redacted] They are fine with openly calling for our eradication. But if we take it seriously we're panicking hysterically. Right wing militias come armed to protest Drag Queen Story Hour, but God forbid we attempt to protect ourselves. Despite what Tucker and his friends want to think, a lot of trans people are actually veterans, and familiar with guns. I'm not a violent person, but I would try to protect myself and friends if necessary. And yes, I have owned guns throughout my life. -

I just hope you won't underestimate their empathy. I think most young trans people have at least some idea (vague as it may be) that we older generations lived through very different times to them. They know it was hard and they respect us for surviving and living our truth, even if it did take us till late in our lives. That's certainly how I feel about you, and I know it's how some of them feel about me. But yeah, I hear you, your lives may just not interact. I hope they do though. -

It's nothing intentional. There just aren't many to start with. (This is a very "red" area) They do move in their own world. My youngest (queer, mid 20's) lives with me these days. She's a barista and works with a trans woman. I suppose I seem a bit odd to them. I'm kind of an old hag with tattoos and stuff. I really don't like to draw attention (which probably seems weird since I'm openly trans) I did get out and participated in some protests uptown after RW was overturned. People that actually know me are fine with me. But there are the weird looks from strangers. The young people have their own thing going. My daughter stays up at night playing video games online with her friends, and sleeps in. Me, I like to go to bed, get up early, and bake bread. I'm happy to talk to people when I'm out and about. But I can't hear very well either, which doesn't help. -

Hi, and welcome! You’ll find many of us here who are in the discovery phase of life, working through gender identity shifts and transitioning partially, fully or not at all. The forum is clearly the right place for you to explore, to ask questions, provide insight or just to be in a place where you are accepted and welcomed. It certainly seems that you are happy and, even if your wife might not fully understand she is tolerant and supportive...which is so very wonderful. I look forward to hearing about your journey! -

I certainly love seeing some positive news! It's a pity that this is necessary but glad to see the support given by this legislation. Hugs, Charlize -

"Unhealthy politics" is an understatement! And yes, I think we sent a pretty clear message. I'm a little worried about the "violent trans activists silencing free speech" narrative that is sure to be spun from this though. -

Here is the butternut squash soup recipe I developed a few years ago. I've got some butternut squash cooking this morning. 1 large, or 2 small, butternut squash 1 quart of soup stock 1 tsp salt 1/2 tsp paprika 1/4 tsp fine black pepper Split the squash and place face down in a casserole dish. Cook in the oven at 320 for one hour. Turn the oven off and let sit in the oven for another 20 minutes. Make veggie stock. I chop some onion, celery and cabbage. Fry the onion in 2tbsp oil for 2 minutes. Add the celery and cook for another 2 minutes. Add the cabbage, stir and put the lid on to braise for 3 minutes. Add 4 quarts of water, bring to a boil and then simmer for one hour. Strain, add 1 tsp salt (preservative) and 1/2 teaspoon paprika. Put into quart mason jars and put in the fridge. Makes 3 quarts. Scoop the squash out into a sauce pot. Add a quart of the veggie and bring to a boil, stirring to break up the squash. Simmer for 15 minutes. Add the spices and simmer for another 10 minutes. Puree in a blender. Chill in the fridge. Serve cold. -

Hello all, first post. I’ve got so much to say but I don’t want to overdo it straight up, so I hope I don’t, but I probably have. I feel a little lost and I’m looking for a home. Sorry, that’s a bit dramatic, so let me explain. I secretly started crossdressing in panties and bras when I was a child just like millions of other boys probably did, then grew out of it, but I began it again after my wife and I got married, 38 years ago. Over many years, I introduced panty play into the bedroom and then occasionally as day wear for her to discover. Fast forward a decade or two and it is now normal for me to wear my own panties daily and bras whenever I feel like it. I feel extremely lucky to sport a pair of moobs that almost fill a B-cup bra. My wife and I are still happily married and she totally accepts my kink but I have always held the view that she doesn’t really understand. To her it is just a kink but to me it is much deeper than that. You know the old saying about men being in touch with their feminine side? To me, over the past year or so, it is more like me falling in love with my inner woman, and I am now happy to let her out, bit by bit. Also, a couple of years ago I learnt that due to an ongoing medical condition, if things kept deteriorating, I would eventually be placed on hormone treatment consisting of a drug to stop my production of testosterone. I researched the side effects and discovered that it had dramatic de-masculinizing effects as well as the possibility of mild feminizing effects. My reaction? I was excited! How wrong is that? I haven’t started ADT yet but I expect to, possibly this year. Despite my increasing comfort with letting my inner woman show herself more and more, which I have done by letting my hair and nails grow and wearing more unisex looking clothing, I am not looking to transition. Well, I don’t think I am, but I can’t help thinking that my mind already has. I’m not trying to ‘pass’ in public though, it’s just that I’m more comfortable now being true to myself. Does that make sense? The thing is, I am happy to be male. I am not dysphoric and never have been. I am happy to be considered as being somewhere on the rainbow, but I don’t need a femme name or them/they pronouns. But, the thought of my hormone balance shifting to the point where I might undergo a certain amount of involuntary feminization on top of my already pink brain, puts my mind in a happy space. I imagine being a man with a woman’s body. More recently I was questioning my gender identity. At one stage I made up my mind that I was the simultaneous type of bigender, but labels are less important to me now. I am what I am. But I still went ahead and listed Questioning as my gender identity here. I guess I sound a bit confused and stressed. I have a question which I would dearly love to be answered. Am I in the right place here? I have lurked here and on other forums for quite a while now, but some of the other CD forums seem too extreme for me. I’m not into passing or drag or play dates. I just want to talk. I am happy to be steered in the right direction if I can’t make a home here. Thanks in advance for any feedback. -
