So it finally happened, at work, today i caught a co-worker staring at my chest. There were 3 of us in a conversation. I had my attention focused on the other person. When I looked back at the first guy. I noticed his eyes quickly shifted up to meet mine, when he noticed I was looking him in him beady little eyes he spun around in his chair, facing his computer. This was a first for me. Thankfully, I had my mask on so he couldn't see my face. All I could do was laugh to myself, then go outside and laugh some more. I sure I didn't react properly. I'm thinking I should just ignore it when these things happen unless it becomes an issue. Looking for thoughts.

@WillowI'm very happy people were seeing you for who you are, and I'm a little jealous you got a skort. I feel your pain with getting makeup right and the messing it up. It took a while but I think I look better when I don't go all-out. I'm still waiting for the day I can go shopping for clothes with my wife. God knows I them.

Now you know what women go through constantly.  It's a little unnerving at first, but also funny.  I'm sure that guy won't forget that moment for a long time.

Hey Star.  

Yeah its has happen to me in while. I mostly get guys to figure me out. They will check me out, and  i can hear their mind cylinder pop. 

"It pretty sure its a chick, but i don't .

My middle sons birthday is Tuesday. So, last night we went to Scottsbluff to take him and his family out for his birthday dinner. The weird thing, was as we were driving into Scottsbluff. we started seeing construction signs, no biggie I thought it is that season. We are kicked off hwy 71 to go through Gering. Two Sheriff vehicles where at the road shut down.

I look up the closed road I see a bunch of those Super class C motor homes (semi truck style) with huge trailers. First I thought a huge accident. The night goes on we have dinner and once we head towards home.

We head back south on hwy 71. Again we hit construction area then down a lane to 1. Sign say prepare to stop. OK. again no biggie. We pass the flaggers, still working at 9:30pm. We begin seeing spot lights. Then vehicle mounted cameras. SO I thought maybe a first responder  exercise. The main area is lit up like day light. Cars everywhere.  None damaged etc. We pass a huge group of people having a meeting or something.

 

We start passing race support rigs. Then drag cars. I finally figured it out they are filming  one of those outlaw street drag shows. pretty cool. Wish I could have watched some runs.

I have thought it was mostly staged with location anyway. now I know it. shutting down a state highway, use of local and probably state law enforcement. Highway dept. The only outlaw in that show is probably the rules. (except where safety is concerned)  but the experience was cool.

 

Have a great day everyone,

Hello my name is Mmindy and I'm a Chocoholic!

 

Good morning everyone,

 

The coffee was hot strong and black as usual. Because of yesterday's talk about coffee and chocolate cake, my fasting AM blood glucose numbers are up a bit... 110mgdL

 

I hope everyone has a great weekend.

 

Mindy???

I like chocolate too - I get my dose with peanut butter and chocolate pretein bars and convince myself they are healthy for me...?

Ha! I love chocolate but have not had any chocolate in weeks. Trying to steer clear of a lot of things during this recovery phase. So I’ve been enjoying berries. Look forward to coffee again soon!

Good morning, Mindy.  My name is Kathy, and I am a chocoholic.  I just finished a delicious fudge brownie, a chocolate-lover's delight!

I'm afraid I am too.  I keep it on the top shelf of the cupboard, but alas I am tall so it always gets found!

@Jani @KathyLauren @Kylie @Shay @ElizabethStar @Mmindy I think we just started a chapter of chocoholics right here on Tpulse!

 

@ElizabethStar I actually have three skorts they are comfortable, airy like a skirt but protective from the up skirt perverts like shorts.  They also hide undesirable lumps better than shorts or slacks but you still have to tuck or be post bottom surgery to get the look right.  I have some dresses but only one true Skirt.

 

i have a reasonable wardrobe  just Not enough opportunities to wear it.

 

Have a great day.

@Willow Ha! I see we did. I’ll say, I love homemade Godiva melted Hot Chocolate on the stove top. Something about the fresh melted chocolate!

I have molds that I can make little chocolate butterflies with. I am totally making some tonight. They are great for cakes, cupcakes and just snacking. Who's starting the chocolate fountain of youth thread? Then everyone can share their favorite desserts.

Lets do it. My wife suggested Blizzards for our evening snack since we don't have any ice cream. Of course mine will be something with chocolate in it. of course.

 

My Monday today. but work is work. same old. Got an interview for a position in Ashland, OR. Parts manager at the Ford Dealership. On Thursday. Still don't know what to do. Out of the family and a friend I came out to. that is 7 people. yet only 2 support me. not great odds.

@KymmieL My wife would agree with that. She’s a bigger chocoholic than I am.

 

As for what to do, I think you have your answer in that you are still posting for jobs in Oregon.  Clearly you want to relocate.  Now the question is what about the Family?  Would any follow you and how do you feel about it if they don’t? Do you want to accept your wife’s demands? Can you accept yourself?

 

this is not an easy thing to decide but only you or you and your family can help you decide.

 

Good luck. Let us know what you workout.

 

we are here for you regardless.

Good morning 

 

Coffee is especially good this rainy Sunday morning.  Even though it’s almost 9:30 the photocell lights are still on.  

 

Live Facebook church starts at 10.  It’s come as you are.  Today is tidy up the house day.  Hard to keep throw pillows in there place, the dog uses them to bury treats or to make or adjust a bed for herself.

 

So fellow chocoholics what’s on the menu today!  Fudge brownies?  Cake? Candy?  How about some old fashioned fudge? I think that sounds good today.  I like mine with walnuts.  Mmmm!

 

Guess I need to find some.

 

Hugs

Willow,  eather fudge brownies or just old fashion  fudge for this girl.  You can leave out the  nuts. I prefer it to just  melt in your mouth.  

Has anyone tried the new fudge brownie M&Ms they are to die for.

Ugg! I need some coffee in me in order to get the energy to make coffee lol. I had a couple drinks last night (only the second time this year that I have) and realized, I’m a light weight lol. I have my Black Rifle coffee brewing though, so I should make it. ??

      I use my  chosen name online and when ever I can. I play some online game and only go by that name. That is how everyone there know me. Yes it does feel great to be called the name you prefer.

      I was ten years old when my mom walked in on me frolicking around my room dressed up in her bra, panties, and some pantyhose. I had been doing this in the privacy of my bedroom for a little while now so I had my own little stash box I kept full of different panties, bras, etc ... of hers. My mom's underwear was so easy for me to come by and she was a very attractive woman, classy, elegant. Well when she walked in on me, she looked at me with disgust and said to me... "If I wanted to run around like mommy's little girl instead of mommy's little boy, then she was going to treat me like mommy's little girl."  She left my bedroom after telling me NOT to change or get dressed or anything and returned with a few of her work skirts and blouses and such. She made me model off her outfits for her and I have to admit ... I LOVED EVERY SECOND OF IT. I felt so sexy, and feminine. And she knew I loved it.  She told me we can do this every weekend if I'd like. It would be OUR little secret.

      The usual social ways, of course.  Taking care of my partners and stepkids, being involved in my community.  That makes me feel good about my role.   As for physical validation and gender... probably the most euphoric experience is sex.  I grew up with my mother telling me that my flat and boyish body was strange, that my intersex anatomy was shameful, that no man would want me. So experiencing what I was told I could never have is physical proof that I'm actually worth something.

      <Moderator hat on>  I think that, at this point we need to get the thread back onto the topic, which is the judge's ruling on the ballot proposition.  If there is more to be said on the general principles of gendered spaces etc., please discuss them, carefully and respectfully, in separate threads. <Moderator hat off>
    • Abigail Genevieve
      People who have no understanding of transgender conditions should not be making policy for people dealing with it. Since it is such a small percentage of the population, and each individual is unique, and their circumstances are also unique, each situation needs to be worked with individually to see that the best possible solution is implemented for those involved. 
    • Abigail Genevieve
      No.  You are getting stuck on one statement and pulling it out of context.   Trans kids have rights, but so do non-trans kids.  That conflict is best worked out in the individual situation. 
    • MaeBe
      I get the concept, I believe. You're trying to state that trans kids need to or should be excluded from binary gender spaces and that you acknowledge that answers to accommodate those kids may not be found through policy. I disagree with the capability of "penetration" as being the operative delimiter in the statement, however. I contest this statement is poorly chosen at best and smacks of prejudice at worst. That it perpetuates certain stereotypes, whether that was the intent or not.   Frankly, all kids should have the right to privacy in locker rooms, regardless of gender, sexuality, or anatomy. They should also have access to exercise and activities that other kids do and allow them to socialize in those activities. The more kids are othered, extracted, or barred from the typical school day the more isolated and stigmatized they become. That's not healthy for anyone, the excluded for obvious reasons and the included for others--namely they get to be the "haves" and all that entails.
    • Abigail Genevieve
      Context.  Read the context.  Good grief.
    • MaeBe
      Please don't expect people to read manifold pages of fiction to understand a post.   There was a pointed statement made, and I responded to it. The statement used the term penetration, not "dissimilar anatomy causing social discomfiture", or some other reason. It was extended as a "rule" across very different social situations as well, locker and girl's bedrooms. How that term is used in most situations is to infer sexual contact, so most readers would read that and think the statement is that we "need to keep trans girl's penises out of cis girls", which reads very closely to the idea that trans people are often portrayed as sexual predators.   I understand we can't always get all of our thoughts onto the page, but this doesn't read like an under-cooked idea or a lingual short cut.

      I shopped online in the beginning of transition. I had great success with SHEIN and Torrid!

      Have you read the rest of what I wrote?   Please read between the lines of what I said about high school.  Go over and read my Taylor story.  Put two and two together.   That is all I will say about that.

      "I feel like I lost my husband," Lois told the therapist,"I want the man I married." Dr. Smith looked at Odie, sitting there in his men's clothing, looking awkward and embarrassed. "You have him.  This is just a part of him you did not know about. Or did not face." She turned to Odie,"Did you tear my wedding dress on our wedding night?" He admitted it.  She had a whole catalog of did-you and how-could you.  Dr. Smith encouraged her to let it all out. Thirty years of marriage.  Strange makeup in the bathroom.  The kids finding women's laundry in the laundry room. There was reconciliation. "What do we do now?" Dr. Smith said they had to work that out.  Odie began wearing women's clothing when not at work.  They visited a cross-dressers' social club but it did not appeal to them.  The bed was off limits to cross dressing.  She had limits and he could respect her limits.  Visits to relatives would be with him in men's clothing.    "You have nail polish residue," a co-worker pointed out.  Sure enough, the bottom of his left pinky nail was bright pink  His boss asked him to go home and fix it.  He did.   People were talking, he was sure, because he doubted he was anywhere as thorough as he wanted to be.  It was like something in him wanted to tell everyone what he was doing, and he was sloppy.   His boss dropped off some needed paperwork on a Saturday unexpectedly and found Odie dressed in a house dress and wig.  "What?" the boss said, shook his head, and left.  None of his business.   "People are talking," Lois said. "They are asking about this," she pointed to his denim skirt. "This seems to go past or deeper than cross dressing."   "Yes.  I guess we need some counseling."  And they went.

      You look wonderful!!! A rose among the roses.
    • Ashley0616
      Mine would be SHEIN as much as I have bought from them lol.
    • MaeBe
      This is the persistence in thinking of trans girls as predators and, as if, they are the only kind of predation that happens in locker rooms. This is strikingly close to the dangerous myth that anatomy corresponds with sexuality and equates to gender.
