I am Far Less Sad but Not Truly Happy Yet

September 26, 2021

The first picture was 3 months of estrogen, the second is 4 years and 3 months of estrogen. I really like estrogen, hehe!A good friend recently remarked that the closer I am getting to my surgery date, the worse things seem to be for me. For many who have known me for a long time it may very well appear that way though in reality a few different things are going on. First off, I am willing to be more…

Why Allies Are Important

May 17, 2021

Why are allies so important? Because most days I don’t feel like killing myself, but some days I do. Work Update……….. The teacher I spoke of on Tuesday came by this morning. She politely asked to speak to me and began apologizing almost immediately upon entering my room. I thanked her and apologized as well. She was quite concerned and confused so I took a deep breath and explained the bigger picture, all of it, down to the lounge conversation…

Happy Halloween!

November 1, 2020

Happy Halloween. Um, love my costume! So happy I teach and have an excuse to do this. I wasn’t sure about this year with all of us online. However I have been stressing that it is important to take care of our mental health, so I went for it. Super happy I did, it’s been a hell of a couple of weeks. Not with my classes, my students are fabu! But some other things have really challenged me. Now where…

Being Overly Critical

July 21, 2020

I was just reading someone’s opinion on a website about MtF transgender voice therapy and something struck me, how critical are you of gender “tells?” The specific thought someone posted was in saying that while they have heard many transgender women speak they are still aware that the person was born AMAB. I am not wanting specifics on where that opinion was posted as I am not wanting to trash that person, that is not the point. What I am…

A Small Change

December 20, 2019

May 2016 to November 2019 This past Tuesday I was at The Source in Visalia. We were having our transgender group night. On that evening we had an informal meeting, a potluck, and generally just socialized. It was fun as it was something we have never done before. We normally go around in a circle and discuss anything we want to have. Sort of like a rotating speakers platform. Anywho…. on this night, we were just standing around, eating, and…

Seriously? Male Privilege

December 17, 2019

I literally raised my hand and put my palm out towards his face and said “I seriously cannot do this,” and I walked away while asking my wife to take over. She kindly went and found the repairman while I went and had a cigarette. I thought I was pretty clear on the whole male privilege thing. I mean I have been dressing as me for about the last fifteen to twenty years. I have experienced people. I have experienced…
