The Ol' Panny-Tranny

There's a lot to talk about, but then in the same fashion I am an unbearable bore. I'm going to be basically just running through different things happening to me in...

LGBT Stereotypes

Here are a handful of uneducated stereotypes that I have heard about mostly lesbians or trans guys that I do not fit -I don't like sports. -I don't hang out with a group of only gay or trans friends. -I do not hate my dad. -By extension, I do not hate men or women as a gender. -Can't figure out the problem with my car by looking under the hood. -I do not condemn "traditional families" -I don't go to church and pray that God will forgive me for being "gay" -I am not a feminist. -I am not faking my deep voice -I don't grab my crotch or swagger when I walk to appear more masculine That is just some of them.

I wonder

How did I get to be so progressive when I was raised by people that don't "get" so many things? The way I see it, it isn't for us to "get" why people do and feel how they do. It is for us to step aside and let people do what makes them happy, so long as they are not bringing misery to others. It is not our business. It should be no one's choice to "allow" gays to marry. We are adults, we should have that right to love without regard to things that do not matter. We tolerate a lot of bullshit, why not tolerate the right kind of freedom?

Anyone want to help out my same-sex friends? They want to start a family.

Support

My area...within an hour and a half has a ton of resources for someone like me. I'm happy about that and a little less scared about the problems I may run into. I saw a post about a trans dad that lost custody of his kid just for being trans. Scared the hell out of me, as a parent, that would be the worst.

You are so brave and quiet I forget you are suffering.

Wow.

It's the little things.

The other day, my wife called me her 'handsome man'. Even though I do not identify as a man completely, this tiny thing made me feel so much better than being called 'pretty'.

Text Reads: What bothers me is that even though on my documents I could have the little F changed to a little M, it won’t work for me. I’m not always F or M, I’m just me. People don’t like me, they want me to “pick one already” and that’s fine. I pick me. I am not Male or Female, I am Human. Submitted by Grey

That's pretty perfect.

Another small step

Since I do not have many friends…at all, my next small step was to tell a friend, pretty much my only friend. I told her the best way I could, that I did not feel like a girl, but I did not feel 100% like a man, either. I told her I had dysphoria about not having a flat chest and wanted top surgery.

She reacted just like I thought she would, by telling me that it was okay and that she wanted me to be whatever made me happy. This girl has been like a sister to me for many years so it was like confessing to a family member. I feel like a bit of a weight is off of me, because now I have two people (best-friend and wife) that fully accept what I’m doing, being the real me.

Except I have not gotten the wife onboard with letting me grow a big ol’ beard. :)

Is it really this simple? Even though I do not necessarily want to change my pronoun or have bottom surgery, does being non-binary technically make me transgender? I am asking as respectfully as I can.

I got a 997 from Underworks. I heard good things about them, and it seems to work exponentially better than a tight sports bra.I can breathe just fine, but sitting down slouched is almost impossible. I had a 35.5 inch chest and this badboy took me down to a 32. Better than what I expected. As you can see, I’m wearing a tight shirt and I have my arms up and I still barely show. In a tshirt, I am pretty flat.

Let me explain

As my first post here, my thoughts may be a bit jumbled. I don’t want to go into the past too much, aside from saying that I have never been comfortable in my own skin.

I have usually clung to a more tomboy area of life, and realized I didn’t feel like other girls at a young age. I was feminine sometimes, but felt way more comfortable on the other end of the spectrum.

I wasn’t a girl on the inside but it took me a long time to say it out loud. I liked girls and that was okay. I sometimes liked guys and that was okay. But being born a girl and not *being* a girl… I thought people would hate me for that.

I got over that, too. I am not a girl…and I am not a boy either. I do not have to be 100% one or the other and that’s okay. So far I have told my wife, and now anyone that reads this.

This is 1 of many more posts involving my transformation.
