That's exactly how I feel, PP. How lucky your friend is to have you. |
These two posts were me, sorry. |
Gaia, are you still there? I hope so! Thank you for sharing about yourself and taking time to answer questions.
My 13 year old daughter just told me she is transgendered. While I am totally accepting of this and believe it is a real thing, it just doesn't ring true for my daughter. While she is not girly, I have never sensed her discomfort with girly things. For example, she has never had a problem wearing dresses and still does on occasion. She has large breasts and makes no attempt to hide them...even wears form fitting t-shirts. I am trying to find a specialist to help me sort this out. She is convinced she is transgender; I am not. And I want to make sure this is what it is before she comes out, which she really wants to do. Any advice? How do you know for sure? |
If I wish I was male, always have wished I was male, hate my breasts, don't have sex because I hate having stuff stuck into my vagina and dislike 99pct of what's supposed to be female...am I transgender? I am seriously asking. Or am I only trans if I identify as trans and am actively pursuing to change my gender? |
Hi, DCUM.
After a long break, I am back to speak with you about my experiences as a transgender woman. Please be respectful to me and my life. |
Do you feel that "cisgender" people need to define themselves as such? I've seen a trend toward this. |
I have a love/hate relationship with labels. I appreciate that the word exists; it makes people who are transgender seem less "other", as now we're not the only ones who use a word (trans/cis) in front of our gender. I think it's similar to the word "straight" and how having a word for that orientation makes people who identify as "gay" or "bisexual" or "pansexual" or any other sexuality that they identify with seem less odd or taboo. |
What do you think of the TV show Transparent (if you've watched it)? My husband and I are sort of addicted, but also feel like its sort of beating us over the head with its I don't know--Californianess-- at the same time. Your reaction (if you've watched it)? |
Had a massive wobble today and was really upset. I'm 41 m2f in the UK. So many forum's are bitchy and false.
Finding you has totally settle me and inspired me, thank you so much for your openess. I can relate to your posts so much. I have wiccan friends and they are so wonderful towards me. Again, thank Gaia for posting. Tears of happiness here, truely wonderful. |
