It is ok, don’t feel badly! Your name obviously means something very special to you. You conjured it, it is yours. No one will likely know where it is from unless you tell them. And you know what? I think your story is cute, and awesome.

My name also grew out of something from long ago, my first female character in Everquest. So when you mentioned starting to think of femme names 16 years ago it really tickled me.

Literature is a solid choice to pull names from. I love nameday stories, thank you so much for sharing yours!

Hi Maria!

Welcome to boobies. Auto Seatbelts are also the enemy. And you will notice every time you accidently bump them. But they are super awesome.

I am glad your journey is progressing! Keep it up!

I just found this site today and they seem very cute and designed for dangly bits https://enfemmestyle.com/collections/lingerie

If we ever get sane leadership again i should hope all of this will be undone. They are so mad that they failed 01/06 that this is the inevitable outcome. Simply label everyone you don’t like a terrorist to justify inhumane treatment and genocide. There is still time to get out, but the logistics of leaving are getting more difficult. Stay safe.

Heya, the Social security office let me change my name (as of late April) but they wont change gender at this time. I am fairly certain the same is true for passports at this time but i havnt made that appt yet.

A woman in customer service over the phone a few years ago called me ma’am and i didn’t correct her. The whole conversation i kept thinking omg omg i like this alot.

It took me a good year and a half to figure out why that phone call made me happy.

I am incredibly glad that i gave myself the space and confidence to discover who i have always been and to take action to affirm my true self.

Oh sweet, the new Jocks in Jills dropped on my podcast app recapping this. I accidently spaced out on watching it last night o:

May the best team win!

oh those are cute!! love that outfit

Do you have access to any thrift stores?

Heya! I’m so glad you felt good about that pronoun change. Thank you so much for sharing the beginning of your journey here. And it is your unique journey so it’s going to be different from everyone else’s. Don’t you worry about a thing.

As for age, I didn’t understand that I was transgender until I was already over 50 years old. But once I got there, so many things in my life made way more sense. The journey takes a great deal of patience and a lot of self care but it is so worth it.

Whenever I get that certain feeling of gender euphoria now, I know I’m doing exactly what I need to be doing in the moment. It sounds like changing your pronouns may have been that gender euphoric moment for you. Learning how to express oneself when one’s idea of oneself is still coalescing is not easy. Take your time. Take it from me, there’s no rush and you aren’t too late! I wish you all the best! :)

Amazing song. Heart wrenching and hopeful. Stay strong everyone.

qobuz is good so far. the ui could use work and I’m still getting used to howto switch output sources but the sound is great and it’s even got Phoebe Bridgers now so I’m all set. bye bye spotify

You are doing great for yourself and I loved the pictures you posted!

If you have thrift stores they can be a hugely valuable resource. You can build a whole wardrobe for very little money and it’s also another opportunity to go out and be seen. Just be aware that polished nails and clothing racks do not mix well, if you want to keep the polish un-chipped. :3
Maybe a bralette could serve to flatten your chest a little while you are at work? Or a sports bra perhaps? Hopefully others have suggestions.

Keep it up girly!

Wow… Well at least folks will still be able to get the medication they need if they are already in the system. I hope there are other resources available in those areas, though. Planned Parenthood is such a treasure I’m sad to see it struggling there, and I’m so unhappy that my medicaid won’t cover them anymore. I’m so lucky my GP was willing to help me or I would have been completely fucked a couple months ago.

I hope people can find the help they need…

You aren’t a mistake. You are an amazing person who is realizing that perhaps some people may not be worth being around if they are going to constantly deny your own lived experience and try to use a book of fiction to beat you into their own idea of submission. A book that has been rewritten and translated to the extent that no one can ever follow it all the way properly and if they did they would seem incredibly ridiculous in today’s society.

I think you should follow your heart, it sounds like you’ve already come to some good conclusions about this. Maybe your friend will come around some day but who knows. But for now, I would start thinking about cutting contact and letting them know why you are doing that. I would also recommend seeing a therapist if at all possible. It helps so much if you can find one you trust.

Keep staying true to your self and keep listening to your guts. Follow the positive vibes. Sadly not everyone in your life is going to accept the transition. But there will always be those who will accept you. You can do this!

Bobby, you may be gone but the Music Never Stopped. Give our regards to Jerry and Phil.

The Grateful Dead filled many dark hours, days and years for me. Hearing hopeful messages and grooving to amazing jams got me through. Seeing them live was always incredible. We will miss you Bob.

Flex Ape

this font is hard to read :o

try contacting the manufacturer, maybe they have a program to help make it affordable.

Oh my gosh I love that dress! At first I thought it was Paisley but it looks like a fractal design? I love trippy looking patterns like that. Thank you for sharing your fantastic fits. <3
