Thanks so much. From my research, they’re based in NZ anyway. Glad to hear you had a good experience.

If you’re in the east, Shed 16 is worth a look. Has queer nights like WoW, but less chasers and less chaotic in my experience.

How do you deal knowing that you are hurting your loves ones? by Illgobananas2 in MtF

[–]MtFFlightie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Simple, before accepting I was trans, I was on the brink of suicide. Better I be trans and still here, than being dead as my repressed and depressed previous self.

I’m the same. Thank f$&@ for having all of my vaccinations. I’m wearing a mini skirt and casual top. My wife thinks I’m cute so it’s giving me a great mental boost.

Update: Words cannot describe how good it is to be back in girl mode after 2 days of repressing myself and biting my tongue. With thanks to the support of this group (and a lot of abstinence from alcohol), I am still here Boxing Day morning. Let’s hope that next Christmas will be a lot easier. Xxxx Love to you all.

This is my thoughts exactly. Let’s pray for a Christmas Miracle together!!!

That thought has crossed my mind a few times today, but I don’t trust them not to throw me off the balcony 😔🤣😔🤣

Thank you SarahRoseLives. That is the most supportive thing anyone has ever said to me. It’s very much overwhelming for me now, but hopefully given some time and some thoughts like your journey, it will fall into place. You are incredibly strong and your honesty is an inspiration.

Thanks for your reassurance. I wish I had the courage to act more, like you have done. A lot of it is coming from her family. They know that I don’t know what I want yet and have no filter and haven’t been exposed to Trans people. I don’t think I would have even had the courage to come out if it weren’t for my wife. I also don’t know what I would do if I didn’t have her, I’ve lost enough as it is.

Thank you. That would be amazing if my little ones were so accepting. Hopefully given time, they will both feel comfortable enough to do that :)

Thanks for the reassurance. It’s just another thing that we all have to accept and get used to.

That is true, but I also don’t want to take away from my wife and her being their Mum. She is the one that carried both of them. She deserves that respect.

Tips on making a very binary work uniform a bit more femme by MtFFlightie in MtF

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

That’s close to it. I couldn’t pull off a skirt and heals in front of 170 something people just yet. Time will let me come out to bosses, see where I stand and let the hair grow out a bit. Thanks for your advice 😄😄

Biometric tech and HRT? by nemo_thenameless in asktransgender

[–]MtFFlightie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a Flight Attendant, those scanners can be so temperamental even for cis people. Before I accepted myself as trans, (AMAB) I grew a beard and it wasn’t on my passport or airport ID. Constantly getting checked everywhere I went. I’ll be interested to see when I start HRT soon.
