Hi,

I'm a parent and ally, interested in doiing what I can to make the world a more accepting place.  I've been in the trans community for 10 years.  I entered it full of fear for my child but today I can say she is a healthy, happy, independent adult and I am very grateful.  I am also very proud of her. It was a process, and it wasn't easy but our human instinct is to love and protect our children and that's what I did.  Im interested in being a member of a mutually supportive environment and that's why I'm here.

Thank you for being so supportive!  I can only imagine your daughter is proud of you.  We're always looking for advise and comment from parents and allies.  Please join in the conversation!

Cheers, Jani

Welcome.  It is always lovely to see a parent willing to accept and help their child through what is a difficult process for all involved.

Hi from another Jersey Gal.

 

Hugs,

Welcome to Trans Pulse, Twinstar.  Thank you for all the support for your child and the hard work you both put in to give her the life she deserves and wants.  We have a lot of parents here who will benefit from your experience.  I look forward to hearing more from you.  Your daughter, of course, is also welcome here.

 

HUGS

It's a pleasure to meet you Twinstar4 and welcome!  I have much respect and gratitude for you and your solid parenting.  I'm sure your child has the same for you too.  I'm happy to read that she is doing very well and your support and understanding of her made that possible.  You should be very proud of her and yourself.  Thank you for sharing your story here and becoming a vital part of our community.  We can always use more people like yourself.

 

Warm Regards,

Susan R?

      Oh, another comment.   I am a conservative evangelical with strong Republican leanings. So is my wife, my friends, my family. I disagree with a good amount of what the Republicans are doing, but there it is.  I understand the mindset, I think, a lot better than those who are outside it do.   When you insult Republicans you insult me, my friends, my family.   People like me can struggle with trans issues.   Please consider that in posting.

      I found this as well. No playacting, they just appear: the finger waggle wave; bracing my elbow on my other arm that's folded across my chest, wrist in the air half-cocked; walking a bit more fiercely... All that. My wife thought I was mocking her at one point!

      I find my lack of time to read the thing frustrating, and I will not really comment until I have read it.  This is a wholly inadequate response.   1.  I think there are some legitimate concern.   2. Thoroughly discussing this will consume many threads.   3. I disagree partially with @MaeBe but there is partial agreement.   4. The context includes what is happening in society that the authors are observing.  It is not an isolated document.   5. Trump, if elected, is as likely to spend his energies going after political opponents as he is to implementing something like this.    6. I reject critical theory, which is based on Marxism.  Marxism has never worked and never will.  Critical theory has problems which would need time to go into, which I do not have.   7. There are groups who have declared war on the nuclear family as problematically patriarchal, and a lot of other terms. They are easy to find on the internet.  This document is reacting to that (see #4 above).   8.  Much of this would have to be legislated, and this is a policy documented.  Implementation would  be most likely different, but that does not mean criticism is unwarranted.

      Sort of bracing myself for flipping, because I am wearing f and of course I wear f and it is natural to wear f and what else would I wear?  The  novelty is long gone out on this.  I wore a bra most of yesterday but we had a Zoom call and I took the bra off because I was concerned about the straps showing.  I missed it.    My body is saying "I am female!  Treat me that way!"   In the past it has screamed about this activity that  I have done to it.

      This is what I'm scared of.  And it's quite possible. Apparently Chicken Little was right.

      Whether it was a hate crime or not, it's still horrible.

      Finally I  am back online   I had to use the help of the contact form (not proud  of that, I always feel embarrassed and shy about contacting people), but here I am   missed all of you

      I'm not happy to admit this, but I usually scream or break things.   Breaking things became a bit of a no no, because It was always a cd or something I liked and it got very expensive to replace stuff

      Probably amusement parks. I've never been to one sadly, but I think I could talk for an hour about them without any problem

      The name "Mississippi" comes from the Anishinabe tribe of Native Americans; the word means "Father of Waters."
