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
Womyn Only
A short post, but I have to get this off my chest. I was looking through the meetup groups and saw a lesbian group that seemed appropriate. I’m looking at the info on the group and get to the bottom. Women born women only. Really! Why? What exactly is the threat or the problem for…… Continue reading Womyn Only
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
SRS one year after
It has been a year, a few days shy anyway. I’d say the healing is complete. Perhaps the scars under my breasts are still a little pink, but I am not at all sure you would say they aren’t healed. My breasts aren’t quite there with respect to sensation. The right (facing me) is well…… Continue reading SRS one year after
Life Lessons about Transition
It’s been almost three years since I started HRT. It is about three years to the day when I returned from Province town and decided that I could transition. Province town had been the experiment in living full time. Starting with my return I came off the small dose of testosterone I was still on…… Continue reading Life Lessons about Transition
Hell on Earth
The second of the pair At the sight of the elders The young men laugh at their stooped shoulders and their canes They ridicule their slow gate The wrinkles they have earned See only the outer skin And not the sweet person within The family visits three times a year Each time the children are…… Continue reading Hell on Earth
Help me grow…
As far as I’ve been able to figure out, which actually is pretty difficult to do, this blog is reaching between 100 and 150 people between wordpress, facebook, linked in and twitter. I’ve been letting it grow “organically”, back following other bloggers, handing out business cards as I run into people I think might be…… Continue reading Help me grow…
What does it mean to be a family?
If you listen to some people a family is a dad and a mom and 2.1 children. I feel back for poor little .1, never getting invited to play, not even big enough to be thrown out of a bathroom because there’s only like an arm there, but I digress. It’s an Ozzie and Harriet…… Continue reading What does it mean to be a family?
Why Religion Should not Exempt Compliance
Over the years various religious groups have objected to mandates by either the state or federal government on the basis of religious freedom. When couched in those terms it is hard to object. When we hear this we think of a house of worship and the first amendment being breached with rules changing what can…… Continue reading Why Religion Should not Exempt Compliance
