I am older and questioning at the moment, but have been doing a lot of reading. I expect to do a lot more reading. This forum is very informative and very welcoming. Thank you.

A great book to help YOU determine YOU is Gender Identity by Dara Huffman-Fox it's a great workbook to center on YOU - it costs about $15 on Amazon. Helped me an awful lot to focus on me and my questions.

Nice to meet you @LC and Welcome! 
You've landed in a great place to explore your emotions and new journey in the realm of Questioning.  Many of us here have started down that path from this very spot. 

Wishing you all the best!  Deep breaths ... one step at a time

Welcome to the forum, LC!! Many of us have found ourselves late in life. Take your time, explore, read, examine, ask questions. 

 

Most of all, enjoy the journey!!!

Good morning LC,

 

I’m originally from Eastern Missouri, and hold onto the values of my rural upbringing. The flood of 1993 closed down the facility where I worked, however I was lucky enough to be promoted to the corporate safety department and moved to Westfield, IN. 
 

Welcome to TransPulseForums where I hope you find as much joy as I do. The folks here are great listeners and some have walked a similar path. 
 

Best wishes, stay positive and motivated.

I am excited to be a part of this forum. I cannot tell you the joy and overwhelming emotion I had this morning just before church when I responded to a post on this forum. Made me want to sing out and I never sing in church. But, thank you for excepting me as I am and I am looking forward to the journey ahead with all of you.

Thank you for the suggestion. Ordered this book and should be able to start on it when we get home from Christmas traveling.

      I am a little confused about the word in your title there.    Defamation is a variation I know about, and it is akin to Libel and Slander in meaning, and could be the object of a court action or a couple of types.   If you are referring to the act of denying or taking away your feminine gender, ie. they keep using masculine names and pronouns or referring to you as  a "man" or "man in a dress", then yes it happens to me on rare occasion and if it is online, I simply block the moron doing it or leave the group where they are doing it, and may or may not come back if the person is there.  When people are willing to learn about Trans Folks I do give what are jokingly referred to as Trans 101 or even more in depth classes to the receptive and accepting audiences.  I DO NOT however try to teach a pig to sing, which as they say sounds like hell and annoys the pig.  If someone is invalidating your gender, get away from them safely and FAST.

      My inner child likes to cuddle with Blahaj.  I know it's weird, but it works for me.
    • Ivy
      I'm not sure they can do this.  Not on line anyway.  LOL   Defamation?  Not that I personally know of.

      Nice! I've found myself shopping around for astrophotography gear more than once but haven't taken the plunge yet. To close to a metro area to do it from my home.

      It never occurred to me to be able to see them here in the south.   Maybe tonight if it's not cloudy.

      Well, this last post brings my trans life up to date.  What happens from here is anyone's guess.  The next big milestone will be retirement, probably next year some time.  I don't think that will change things much for Sally because as I have stated previously, I am in a mostly happy place where she is concerned.    I do have a few more posts planned, as I would like to write in more detail about a few occurrences that were memorable to me.  Hopefully they will be of interest to others.    Hugs,   Sally

      Has anyone been a victim of online defemination? and what to do about it?
    • Vidanjali
      Yes, this is very therapeutic. You are able to see different aspects of your own personality. There is the part which has survived life thus far through decision making and lots of trial and error. That part of you is your wise and capable parent. When you feel strongly identified with the scared child in you, you can turn to the wise parent part of you whom you trust to guide you. You have faith and trust in that part of you necessarily because it has gotten you this far. Naturally, we all have room for improvement and advancement, but you can only start where you are and try to do your best with what you have to work with and deal with. But by adopting this attitude, you see that wise parental part of you become stronger, wiser, and more steadfast and skillful. Then the child in you increasingly becomes more trusting and carefree.

      You want to hear coincidence? I just posted that and my neighbor just texted me and said she has been up early because there were Northen Lights outside. Then 2 seconds later I get an extreme weather alert. “We are experiencing Extreme Geomagnetic conditions observed and continued severe geomagnetic storms expected to continue through the weekend”.
    • KathyLauren
      No you aren't!!  There were reports from Texas, Arkansas and the Carolinas of spectacular shows last night.  This is a once-in-a-lifetime event, the best show since 1938, someone said.  Tonight is supposed to be just as good.  (OK, maybe a twice-in-a-lifetime event.  )
    • Susan R
      @KathyLauren That’s absolutely beautiful. Love those colors! That would be so nice to see some time. I’m too far South to ever see these spectacular events.   Very Nice, Susan R🌷
