The bridal shower went very well. My wife, mother and I went. We bowled (I sucked at it) and went to a bar afterwards. I was totally accepted by my family and the brides friends. That is what I had been expecting from this side of my family. My one cousin who got married last year told me that she wished I had went as myself instead of listening to my mother telling me to go in boy mode.
It doesn't just seem that it is, it actually is. aging trans people are left out of nearly 90% of all the help said to be available to transgender people.
Here in Texas, there are not many, if any actually created for aging transgender people. Planned Parenthood pretty much has only been active for trans youth, primarily, as of late. I can't even find legal help for discrimination cases that would help by allowing me to show that it is trans care related. By the way, I don't qualify for medicare as I am turning 55 this year. I also can't get Medicaid either.
Trans youths are not the only ones needing help. Aging trans need just as much help, BUT, are pushed aside as though we as older transgender people, do not matter. I agree the youth are our future, but until the youth decides to listen to what is being taught to them instead of thinking they know everything, the youth of the nation will be our demise.
Wednesday CNA was rather agreeable today (unusual for her). She basically just stated, "you really need to read your bible."
I answered, "yes thank you, I do!"
She wanted to tighten my bra bands and I told her I don't like them too tight.
She said, "oh yeah, yours are just fat and not milk ducts so they aren't heavy."
That started into a conversation about how a bra works, and that the band/gore support the majority of the weight. The bands just helps keep things aligned.
Also, my mammograms say, "scattered fibroglandular tissue" just like a third of women out there. They most definitely have milk glands.
This tread is based on the titling of a bill. That is what the judges ruling spoke to. Please keep on topic. If one wishes to write about rest room funding one can start a topic.
Pity the title did not also mention restricting the rights of the parents who support their children. Perhaps that is only important if a child tries to speak to a teacher about gender issues. Then, suddenly, parental rights become important.
Hugs,
Charlize
WEARINESS
When stress from adverse or challenging events in life occur continually, you can find yourself in a state of feeling emotionally worn out and drained. This is called emotional exhaustion. For most people, emotional exhaustion tends to build up slowly over time.
