Sorry not to have visited your site rec...Hi Jenny <br /><br />Sorry not to have visited your site recently - things have been very busy.<br /><br />This is beautifully written. Funny and courageous and honest. What you said in a comment on my blog comes to mind - perhaps there is a third way, one that allows you to look after the masculine and feminine sides to your being, a trickier path to follow but one with a greater chance of happiness.<br /><br />Many biological woman live their lives in envy wishing they could be like the models we see on every page of every magazine, on every billboard and every television channel. It's not just us poor bewildered transgendered types who wish our bodies could be other than they were!<br /><br />I have no answers but all I can say is keep sharing and never lose that sense of humour :)<br /><br />I hope in the darkest moments you know that you are not alone and that there is a community out here loosely connected through the internet of fellow travellers.<br /><br />Take good care of yourself<br /><br />Hugs<br /><br />Julia<br />xxxAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4834395892091327520.post-33729102898394291662010-02-04T05:56:02.347+00:002010-02-04T05:56:02.347+00:00That's good to hear.

Meanwhile all the advice and peer pressure you get, well over here at least, assumes that transition is your only way forward. The flip-side of the NHS. It's partly why I stayed in the closet so long.<br /><br />I have a friend with a sweet tooth who is unfortunate enough to have developed diabetes. Everywhere they go, sweeties!

I would say that 99% of the people that identify themselves at transgender DO NOT transition, for one reason or another.<br /><br />The ones that do are but the smallest tip of the iceberg. And not all of them succeed.<br /><br />You may not be in good company, but you are far from alone.Bunnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12533555060918801821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4834395892091327520.post-38137523215454306192010-02-03T17:10:58.351+00:002010-02-03T17:10:58.351+00:00I'm still grateful to be here right now, becau...<i>I'm still grateful to be here right now, because I think it's a pivotal point in trans history.

It will contain directions to hidden treasure. :)<br /><br />Thanks all. The idea for the above post was born in a moment of waking up from one of <i>those</i> transition dreams. For once at a half-way sensible time of the morning, too. It served then as a way for me to enunciate my path in black and white and put the moment of angst behind me and reading it again will no doubt do so in the future too. Please don't concern yourselves, I may be prone to the occasional bout of transition envy but I've got a gorgeous Kaliko silk party dress from the sales at home for just these circumstances and I'm not afraid to use it.<br /><br />The friends I've made so far in the t-girl world have been fantastic. You know who you all are, thank you!Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08027942517258679266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4834395892091327520.post-38253530525336702202010-02-03T15:07:16.429+00:002010-02-03T15:07:16.429+00:00What they both said...

I wish I were thirty years younger, because I feel I've wasted those years, but I'm still grateful to be here right now, because I think it's a pivotal point in trans history. In a generation, we'll be boringly ordinary.<br /><br />Believe me, the friends you'll make in the tgirl world will be some of the most honest, intelligent, funny, supportive and genuinely loving people you can find.

I know the path well. The best we can do is try to lean on one another in the down times. It might take two of us to support a twisted giantess, so I'll get aid from Calie.
