What About Regrets?

Poor information is often worse than no information at all. I watched a YouTube video where a young 20 something woman gave out both good and some bad information. This included some information that is critical for people considering a transition to know, hence the links in the next paragraph. The following link to the…… Continue reading What About Regrets?

Parents your children need you

I made the mistake of watching a piece of Dr Phil on You Tube about a trans teen and her mom. Irritating to say the least. Where do they find these people. However, I do know that the drama I saw plays out all the time. This is in two parts. First to the parents,…… Continue reading Parents your children need you

PEOTUS we pray you find wisdom

I don’t have great hope given the early signs. I was hoping you would back away from your positions on muslims and  ease the fears of all the  legitimate immigrants in the country. If anything their worst fears are being fanned into ever higher flames. I hoped that with the election behind you might have…… Continue reading PEOTUS we pray you find wisdom

Pondering your road

I’m on a really lovely discussion forum for trans people. Most of the participants are older, but not all. I started with that group in 2012 when I came out, and if I’m on less now then I owe many people on their a debt along side friends, family, medical and psychiatric professionals. If nothing…… Continue reading Pondering your road

Under the surface

We walk and talk, exchange pleasantries. We say the appropriate automatic answers to how are you. We keep up our public face. We do this until we crumble into dust, some into malaise, some into a hospital, a heart attack, suicide. Men more than women but they say depression and anxiety disorders are one of…… Continue reading Under the surface

Tableau

The hands move, and the clock ticks on And run we do, to time anon For what we will to be Dark night lanes white markings Haloed green beckons us on Arriving by bright sodium arc Beat calls us in to dance our whim Hands and legs give way to sway Emotion in motion, sisterhood…… Continue reading Tableau

There’s a new set of pages I’m building. It’s meant to be a compilation and retrospective of lessons learned, advice, and other info on going full time. It’s going to grow over a period of time. The main page is up and the first child page is up. Please feel free to comment. It’s oriented…… Continue reading Building a full time guide

A Lesbian, not a man

We’ve probably all heard the quip, but if you haven’t, the group whit responds to hearing about a transwoman being a lesbian with “I guess I’ve always been a lesbian too”, or perhaps more dismissively something like “Well he’s just a man then, men like women”. Aside from the fact that not all men want…… Continue reading A Lesbian, not a man

Wonders never cease

I keep getting sources of amusement from the fraudsters online. I know I should just block them but the misuse of the English language and quaint mistakes are hard to ignore. I don’t think they really know how early they give off signals. This latest one, supposedly 60 miles away, really? Kinda far to drive…… Continue reading Wonders never cease

Transition’s End

It has to happen with all things and so it does with transition as well. There comes a day when you think very little about whether people see you as a woman. Then another day when you don’t talk about trans issues with friends and see them liven up because that is all you’ve talked…… Continue reading Transition’s End
