Its midnight here...so, technically morning I had a really weird evening, and learned something new about politics. My sister, who is running for public office as our township constable, received a "present" today, left on the hood of her patrol car. An axe! Wrapped in a bundle of sticks (dowels?). The sheriff received one also, and a couple other candidates. Now, my first thought was it was meant as a threat, and I was freaked out when she told me. But she wisely identified it as political criticism: During the 2020 election, a small dissident minority objected to our sheriff, and labeled him "Mussolini." Apparently the symbol of the F@scist Party came from ancient Rome. An axe, circled with rods, and the whole bundle was called "fasces" and represented the authority of the state. Roman officials would have them symbolically carried ahead of them through the city on parade. Other nations used it too, including the USA. But since the 1920s, it is mostly associated with a certain political party. Either I was never taught this in high school, or I didn't notice it. So, it appears that this election season will have some interesting aspects. And I have been asked to put gold spray paint on an axe, to make it like a trophy. -

Welcome @Vivelacors! For myself and many others here it is a similar theme. But, I can assure it's never too late. I hope that you will discover that as you explore and connect with more of us on the Forum. You've already taken the most important first step ... Self-Affirmation. I am wishing you the best in continuing this process. Deep breaths ... One step at a time -

I can remember as a teenager being a member of the church of Jesus Christ of Latter day Saints and living in the bible belt. It was always a little hard-I think religion is just tricky anyway. I was referred to a couple of ladies at church by my mum who gave me very good advice. One has known those who are are trans- and how they approched it. The other has two people in their life who identify differently. They also gave other ideas to assist me. I do like ideas though. -

If I am leaving the house I will almost always do makeup. Not over-the-top but enough to feminize my face (eye shadow, mascara), lipstick, and a light cover of a concealer and foundation. I found my favorite lipsticks are Maybelline. But the concealer/foundation I 'discovered' in Neutrogena Hydro Boost - Hyaluronic Acid based. For 'older' gals like me I find it moisturizes and doesn't dry into those annoying fine lines (I have enough of those already). Hopefully, after facial hair removal I might not feel the need as much. -

I think it just comes down to a lot of people not knowing anything about the lgbtq+ community besides what reactionaries online and on TV say. In my experience, people who have a lot more day-to-day contact with gay and trans people, have lgbtq+ friends or family, coworkers, etc. are a lot more accepting because they know an lgbtq+ person, and know that we aren't anything like what the people on TV say we are. -

Actually the bill seems to be so thoroughly confusing that I doubt that enforcement is even possible. It could however incite vigilante style actions. A false accusation against a "looks challenged" Cis woman is very likely to happen early on. So what will happen in the case of those situations? I have a script in mind over the sad average looking daughter of one of the legislators getting tangled into one of those situations. I don't know whether it would be a comedy or a tragedy at the minute. -

Time to bring a self defense weapon. Looking forward to having a gun on my side. -

I don't know yet. I'm sure there is going to be a big crowd. I also would have to keep up with the kids and probably won't enjoy myself mostly. -

I can understand that. My Keurig is used for hot water mostly and when my mom comes. I mostly use a regular coffee maker. I have had that for 5 years now. I had a Bunn but it didn't last long. I also have a French press and rarely use that. I would love to get a cappuccino maker but that is for later on. Starbucks is getting expensive. My kids favorite thing there is the cake pops. I found out that Walmart Neighborhood Market has them. Typical me getting off topic. lol -

After many years in denial, I have finally acknowledged my femininity. After quite a long life, so much time has been wasted. Now I feel I am too old to enjoy the freedom I now feel. All I can contribute to those who need to embrace their true gender, be BRAVE and don,t waste time! -
