@sacha_coward Growing up in the 1970s and 80s, I vividly remember this as well as the anti gay campaigns in general. Also the cis world's vindictively gleeful reaction to the aids pandemic. Until they realized that it wasn't confined to "those people" and that "normal folks" could get it too

The tweet making the rounds dismissing late transitioners due to their male privilege is pissing me off. My 2 su*cide attempts, my lifelong depression and dysphoria, my constantly sabotaging my career goal due to self-loathing ... Golly, such privilege!! We are ALL valid.

@BadPhysicsKaya My brother's reaction was pretty similar, though a little more effusive (he's a really emotionally demonstrative guy 😊). My two sons reacted similarly, as they both have trans and non binary friends in their social circles. Family support is such a joyful thing 🥰💜

@persenche It makes me a little sad that the concept of learning from one's mistakes is being lost, along with 2nd chances. Judgement is often swift and arbitrary. How can people grow without being given the opportunity to do so?

Good morning, Friends. I'm parent to 2 grown sons, 22 and 20. Since I came out, at my request, I've been Dad or Daddy. They initially asked about changing that, but I assured them I was content, as I'd always been their Dad. And I recall how it used to feel to hear them ... 1/

@Angel9591a Of course there is. There's a racism problem in society in general, why would the trans community be exempt? We should know better, but sadly transitioning doesn't eliminate all the nasty baggage that existed prior. We need to do better.

So, grocery shopping with my wife. Dude keeps staring at me. Like every aisle, he's there. Staring. Following. I'm not proud but eventually my response was, "Buddy, if you don't stop eyeballing me I'm gonna drop you right here." My wife was not impressed ... 😔

So, after 7 months on HRT, I'm finally on at least a moderate dose (4mg E - 200mg Spiro). Yes, i know it's lower than it should be, but she's so conservative in her treatment, I'm good with that for now. Plus, I got her to prescribe Finasteride. So all in all, a good appointment!
