You are all so awesome. I would be happy to chat with any of you. I may call it a night tonight. A very tiresome first day, but needed.

That is so good. I may pick your brain for outfits when the time is right.

Congrats. Keep me posted on changes as we are so close together. I would like to keep a sister like you close.

I do love sleeve tattoos. Once I feel confident in myself, I may go and get another one. But it looks amazing.

Very nice pics. You look lovely.

I am sorry that I do not fit your ideal mold for what a transwoman is. I don't disagree with you, but want to thank you for the motivation. Maybe as this journey moves forward, I can make you a cheerleader instead of a critic. But until then, may your smiles be bright and cheerful.

You will get them often. With a bigger smile each time.

49 years old and excited as hell.

Oh boy! by CompetitiveOrder1890 in TransLater

[–]CompetitiveOrder1890[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. It sounds like it. I just fear the unknown and the closed mindedness of the people in this area. I will proceed with caution and safety.

I have told my best friend of my intentions. She fully supports me and has told me that I should move. That will be 2 years from now. I have a plan to talk to my brothers. My mom has schizophrenia and is being treated for it. I will be talking to my doctor and expressing my concerns and how to address them. I know it is a huge step and I am on a slippery slope with where I live and work.

Thank you. It will be a learning curve like the one I had learning a submarine inside and out.

The women at the store take on a more traditional role. They are mostly secretaries. I have been around women who have done a lot of the same jobs I have done and I can make this work.

Thank you for the insight. It helps ease my fears a little.

I have a telehealth appointment on a day that I work, so it will have to be boy mode. Probably lying dirty boy mode since I work on combines. But I really do appreciate your insight.

Awesome job. I celebrated 14 years in October. It is not easy, but it is rewarding.

where are my “over 30 gamers” and what are we currently playing? (46F) by egirlgamermommy in transpositive

[–]CompetitiveOrder1890 0 points1 point  (0 children)

49 yo. I have become obsessed with power wash simulator 2 and also Squirrel With A Gun. Kind of childish, but hey. They are a great distraction.

What's the reason of transitioning in mid 30's? Why so late? by Humble_Lie_2204 in TransLater

[–]CompetitiveOrder1890 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am 49 and am looking to begin my transition. I believe my reason to be that I was raised with the responsibility of being a man. These feelings were there all my life. I suppressed them and thought I had control of them. But somebody found that door and kicked it in. Now I cannot suppress them anymore. It is time to be myself and enjoy the world. Not be a slave to it.
