I'm going to have to stop staying up so late at night... Its after midnight, so technically morning. So, Good Morning, y'all. I got to go to work with my husband for the last two days. I'm working on the graphics stuff for his company, so he said that nobody would really mind if I hang out. I usually stay home, but its kind of nice to be somewhere different for a little while. I spent part of the day at one of the company's installation sites... beautiful weather, so I worked on my laptop sitting under a tree. And I learned something new - it is amazing how electrical wires are installed underground. They're put in PVC tubes, and actually pulled through. By hand! Apparently a machine would risk breaking the wires somehow, so I watched a line of men literally playing tug-of-war with hundreds of feet of wire. It was like something out of an old movie - my husband leading a call/response work chant and everybody pulling in a rhythm. It does give me a bit of self-doubt, though. Like, if that's what "real men" are doing... maybe I'm a poor-quality imitation -

Can I just say quickly re the bathroom question, how come no-one ever seems to suggest building more gender-neutral toilets? -

With the onslaught of bills targeting trans kids in the US and the current attempt to radically curtail gender-affirming treatment for kids in the UK I think you could just as easily ask why are things so hard for trans kids. Given the volatile political situation around them, I am pleased to hear there are still services attempting to help them. -

@Mia Marie I agree that it seems most of the focus is on Trans Youth. And maybe that is in part because of protecting Trans Youth from the political environment, and to give them a chance to transition at an earlier age. Many of our generation have been cloistered for most of our lives by societal exceptions and I think that has made it more difficult to be Visible ... until Now. So I guess my answer is ... Be Visible and seek out, or even start, support groups in your local area. Planned Parenthood does provide Gender Affirming Care and therapy in most U.S. regions (and they take Medicare!). -

As a registered CA voter I would be HAPPY to vote against this bill ... BUT as @Carolyn Marie mentioned it has little chance to make the ballot. Hopefully this will put the Death Knell on the bill. wrt Parents Rights of notification. I would agree if there was potential harm to a child, or if the child was involved in potentially harming somebody else. BUT, that would not be the case in the preponderance of situations. The decision to Come Out to one's own parents should be up to the individual child only. If the child does not feel Secure or Safe in their household then it should not be up to the State or School to make that determination. If the child did feel safe and secure they would have probably already come out. If they haven't ... then the situation seems obvious. Protect the Child, not the System. -

Great news! We ARE starting to receive more public support and visibility in opposition to these types of horrendous and wasteful bills. -

Nice to meet you @mattie22 , and Welcome! Your feelings are very normal. I felt much the same at the beginning of my Journey. But, in fact it is a 'journey' that is unique to each of our individual lives. There is not a specific or pre-determined destination. That's up to you to discover as you find your way. You already received some great Encouragement here. I hope stay with us, and you will both discover and contribute. Deeps breaths ... one step at a time -

Incredible news for transgender and abortion providers and patients in Maine. Despite violent threats, Gov. Janet Mills of Maine has signed a sanctuary bill into law. It even enshrines WPATH Standards of Care as protected by Maine. https://twitter.com/ErinInTheMorn/status/1782894991368462520/photo/1 -

Basically my only source of validation is from close friends who know I'm trans 😅 I'm not a very masculine-looking guy in general, and I've had to stop binding due to pain, so strangers and physical validation aren't things I can get. My family still uses she/her pronouns and female terms with me, so there's not much validation at home, either. I'm grateful I have friends that are willing to use my pronouns and such, though. It makes me feel a lot better. -

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.
