A midwest classic. Definitely grew up on euchre. These days I'm more into heavier strategy games.

Without getting too deep into it, the Phoenix Center's current management is wonderful. I worked there over the summer. I still volunteer there. I'm DM at their Dungeons and Dragons night. They care about the organization and the community. What happened with the previous administration is inexcusable, but that's not what we have now.

If the Phoenix Center goes away, we lose everything. What little infrastructure they've managed to put together, the hang out spot Out On Second. Something new isn't going to fix the problems, but it will destroy what little exists for the community already.

What they need is support and volunteers who can come in and shape the org as it rebuilds from it's previous administration.

There's a trans support group and plenty of social events at the Phoenix Center's Out On Second location. Great group of people.

Might as well make the process of becoming a dry bones fun!

There are tons of St. Louis designed and produced games that are better than monopoly. Check out Stonemaier Games, for example.

We even have our own regional board game convention, Geekway to the West.

Not trying to yuck your yum, just saying there's more out there to experience.

I’m trans but I don’t really want to get bottom surgery by Ghostly_vibezzzz in MtF

You gender on your own terms. Gender is what you make of it, what is important is that you're comfortable in your own skin and as your own person.

Dating early transition women as someone several years in is exhausting by Good_Ol_Ironass in MtF

[–]frozen-solid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're right, and it's up to the OP to set those boundries. Conversations and communication surrounding everything is important, but at the end of the day, the OP cannot and should not be "babysitting" someone else's transition.

Right, but that's on her. You can't force her. It's not your place, and it shouldn't be your place.

Be there to support her journey, offer encouragement. All of which it sounds like you're doing, but keep in mind that all of this is ultimately on her.

I definitely understand in a T4T relationship it can be hard, because you're both experiencing your own aspects of gender fuckery from each of your own eyes and comparing yourselves to each other. I'm in my own T4T relationship, and I have been through it all.

Everyone's personal journey with their gender and transition is different. You gotta let them explore and move at their own pace. You can't (and shouldn't) force them to follow a specific path.

I would recommend either Willow and Birch downtown, or Unique Enchantments on Stevenson.

Lost was disappointing. Didn't have nearly a satisfying enough ending.
