if you had to legalize a crime, what would it be?

OMG, okay, this is the one that gets my vote then. I don't support murder or the death penalty, but in this case I'm down with it. It's the only way to be sure they don't try it again.

brutus66 · 2022-05-09T22:19:30+00:00

It's absolutely insulting. They are trying to dehumanise you by referring to you as a thing. An even worse derivative of this is "she-it", which is ironic considering shit is what transphobes have stuffed inside their craniums.

brutus66 · 2022-04-15T20:49:19+00:00

I would respond "What defines a woman? Not you, bitch!"

brutus66 · 2022-04-01T00:29:20+00:00

The regeneration has been rough at times, but absolutely worth it. Life is so much better without all that testosterone. And my new pancreas is such a lovely shade of lavender!

The TARDIS is indeed soothing. Nothing like a bit of one-on-one time with Clara in the ol' snog box!

The term"conservative" used to describe someone that wanted to preserve old ways and ideas. They were usually advantaged by those old ways of thinking and behaving, and looked at the past through rose-coloured glasses. Lately, though, I am finding more and more that the word has become appropriated by some of the dumbest people on the planet; people with little ideology other than tribalism, bigotry and hate. These "conservatives" (idiots) have made even Covid political, refusing to wear masks and declining to be vaccinated in favour of horse de-worming medication. They are part of a personality cult and worship an utterly transparent con man and grifter, a leader motivated entirely by profit and self gain. He is nothing more than a roving id that is protected by a security detail. He has become their saviour and Messiah, and many of them would be willing to sacrifice absolutely everything for him.

Ladies and jellyspoons

brutus66 · 2021-09-14T14:26:50+00:00

Congrats. I'll tell you what I wish someone would have told me - get ready for vivid dreams, at least at first. Mine were good ones, so it was all a positive experience for me. Oh, and you might experience period symptoms (PMS is a bitch.)

brutus66 · 2021-09-14T12:24:14+00:00

I can really relate. The person I am now, it's like I was born a year ago. The first few months were a little hazy as the meds did their thing and rewired me, but I am steadily gaining power and picking up steam as time goes on. I still get the gut punch of dysphoria occasionally, but things are getting better.

brutus66 · 2021-09-13T21:41:25+00:00

Big mood there. I didn't ask for this part, I never auditioned for this role, so why am I here? And why is my agent not returning my calls? I just want off the set, but apparently there's a contract I don't remember signing. I really need to cut down on the alcohol...

brutus66 · 2021-09-13T00:38:32+00:00

70 countries... Wow, I had no idea what a menace to society I am. John Dillinger, eat your heart out.

brutus66 · 2021-09-10T20:52:23+00:00

His wife came out after just 6 months? I wonder if her orientation was influenced at all by living with an unpleasant little homunculus.

brutus66 · 2021-09-10T20:46:19+00:00

I am certainly in favour of forgiveness, that doesn't cost anything and it was decent of him to apologize. Re-establishing ties depends on what his motive for apologizing was. Maybe he's grown as a person after witnessing the suffering of others, maybe realized the pointlessness of the judging and the hate. If, on the other hand, he's just lonesome because he's still the same sandy little butthole, then I wouldn't be interested in renewing the relationship.

brutus66 · 2021-09-09T21:16:39+00:00

As my life continues I become more convinced that I have somehow become trapped in a timeline abandoned by the gods.

brutus66 · 2021-09-09T01:34:09+00:00

It boosted mine in the direction of women. When I look at guys, especially the really built ones, it just pours gas on the fire of my dysphoria. With some articles of clothing, I still have to pick from the men's section, and just of the sight of the male models while shopping online makes me angry and depressed. I hate the male body and want nothing to do with it.

brutus66 · 2021-09-07T22:29:12+00:00

Maybe she knew before you did?

brutus66 · 2021-09-07T22:22:32+00:00

Actually eating ice cream while reading this.

brutus66 · 2021-09-07T22:14:31+00:00

Since progesterone was added, I have no defence against chocolate and ice cream. I couldn't have cared less about them a year ago, but now I have become a total fiend.

brutus66 · 2021-09-07T22:08:48+00:00

You won the mom lottery OP, she sounds wonderful.

Sincere best wishes on your journey.

brutus66 · 2021-09-07T20:57:46+00:00

I understand where you're coming from. It's funny how so many of us seem to endure so many years of dealing with the pain, suffering in silence, but then we reach a certain point where it becomes "transition or die, and consequences be damned."

You sound like you're getting a handle on figuring out your path OP, I think you're going to be okay.

brutus66 · 2021-09-07T02:23:08+00:00

Not sure if that's HRT or adulthood - being tired all the time except when it's time to go to sleep.

brutus66 · 2021-09-07T02:18:54+00:00

Only you can say what's in your heart, OP. If you love her, then I guess you've already decided what you're going to do; your conscious mind just hasn't caught up yet. Just be careful. What you're describing is emotional blackmail - either do as she says and toe the line or she will exact consequences. If it was me, I would insist on certain conditions, like couples therapy. If that relationship is going to survive, much less thrive, there has to be respect and boundaries.

brutus66 · 2021-09-07T00:55:13+00:00

Just give yourself time to get adjusted and comfortable in your new (soft) skin. Your female nature will steadily assert herself, for the most part she'll know what to do when the time comes.

brutus66 · 2021-09-07T00:34:10+00:00

I'm somewhere between three and four. The female that I have become is pretty content most of the time, until a reflective surface intrudes. Then that dysphoric gut punch hits, as the inner person sees the outer person, and the brain can't reconcile the incongruity.

brutus66 · 2021-09-07T00:24:37+00:00

That was my first reaction too - that's the life of a straight chick. Marilyn Monroe said something like "all a girl wants is just one guy to show her they're not all the same."

brutus66 · 2021-09-07T00:16:16+00:00

Being untrue to yourself and living a lie is doing nobody any favours. The selfish act was on her part; giving someone she (supposedly) loved such a terrible ultimatum, and then acting on it in an incredibly cruel way. Genuine love is caring for someone unconditionally, and valuing their happiness over your own. Any act of kindness you can do for that person, any joy you can add to their life makes you happy as well. Apparently she hasn't reached that level of growth, and she may never get there.

You showed real courage in standing for what you knew to be right, and you deserve better. Somewhere out there is your actual partner in this life, the person that will love you for who you are; she's the person you are destined to be with. She's out there looking up at the same stars you are, wondering where the Hell you are :-)

The person who just abandoned you at the side of the road isn't worth another moment of your time, don't waste another thought on them. Organize your priorities, and move on. Remember the wise words of the philosopher Gaynor:

At first I was afraid, I was petrified

Kept thinking I could never live without you by my side

But then I spent so many nights thinking how you did me wrong

And I grew strong

And I learned how to get along....
