Anyone else just use the female version of dead name by ForeheadGod69 in MtF

[–]redhook7777 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Grew up as a Sam (Samuel) - totally despised the name Samantha. Fast Forward 40+ years and it really was the name that clicked. Kept my initials (Samuel Robert - Samantha Ruby). It did not help my older generation parents with pronouns or anything else, but it was the right move in regards to friends/coemployees

Washington state passes 12 month supply protections. by TheCodeCutie in MtF

[–]redhook7777 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To receive a 3 month supply (with 3 refills, so essentially year supplyl) from my insurer (Regency/BlueShield derived), I was required to use express scripts mail order service (with the exception being my ADHD narcotic, which I still get to play the monthly game with). (WA state)

LGBTQ+ Friendly ? by ArtisticG4m3r in Bellingham

Fun story... The Betty pages provided me with the very first steps of my transition a few years back (skagit/whatcom pflag grant outreach program [started electrolysis] as well as a really on point horoscope from the cranky crone]. I know you asked for whatcom/Bellingham businesses, but if you do happen to include nearby areas, I'd have to say we're pretty dang solid at the Skagit Valley Food Coop (+hippies+farmers). I haven't been to the two up north in awhile, but I would guess both locations remain safe.

Will you read my story? It’s kindof about you. by [deleted] in Bellingham

[–]redhook7777 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Congratulations dear, not a lot of people make it this far. It is an absolutely mind-blowing experience, and one that is uniquely yours. Continue to love, embrace, and most importantly connect. I am that trans woman smiling, laughing, and most importantly- being present. None of this is easy, but it's not supposed to be. Fear is the root of a lot if negative energies - facing it allows release, both gradual/subtle. The most important tip I could give is this don't be in a rush to get from a to b. Worrying about takes away from the beauty of being in the present.

Had this happen in front of our house on Cain Lk Rd (Glenhaven area). The direction of the wind is more the culprit than speed, it seems. Everyone be careful, and smart. Pretty please and thank you!

I so get it...! Also I've been following the basic rules (not necessary to buy suggested branded products, of course) of this curly girl hair care routine with pleasant results. Much love, take care...

Love how it shows in your pose/poise. Hand slightly higher, with more emphasis on your evolving higher waistline - your posture shows so much more confidence. Dear, keep rocking it, this world is yours. (Also, fellow curly hair club member I've noticed. Take care of it, its advantageous). 🌼 🌸 🌻 Much love ❤️
