yeah that makes sense. and some people probably would think you were a lesbian just because so many people just don't understand. Maybe in time you will tell them, maybe not. Whatever you feel comfortable with. But I would not rule out ever having a relationship.

Yeah it's not really a massive secret or anything. well, it's not a secret at all. things have probably been posted on fb that kinda show I like women.

I haven't totally ruled out having a relationship. I mean I haven't decided I don't want one or anything (I would love to have a gf actually)), it's just unlikely. At least atm. I guess I also have lots of other things that are way more important to focus on right now too

I am suffering from a broken heart at the moment :emosad:

Btw why do you think I should wait to transition? How long do you think people should wait for? /quote Adam

Um, till you're 86 y/o.

Nah, totally suit self of course. Just thought you're pretty young and..

Dunno, kinda hope you meet a lovely lesbian lady um, tomorrow and she totally excepts you as you are.. and yeah..

(well, please don't mind me much)

Hm. If she's a lesbian then she obviously doesn't accept me as I am. Because I'm a guy, not a girl

The fact that I am young is a good thing. Why the fuck should I live like shit til I'm older? Why wait another 10, 20 years to start living?

The chances of me meeting a nice lesbian tomorrow are about the same as the chances of YOU meeting a nice lesbian, lutra.

Quit your patronising bullshit please

thanks

* was too late, and haven't read Calavera's post properly, but wrote this to reply a post earlier..

Well, I wondered why you (or others) actually wish to 'harm' your body, having to take 'alien' hormones, undergo some serious surgery and kinda think that when that's 'done' you would feel complete?

I kinda mind the thought that after the change, and only then, you'd feel whole.. your true self. I'm (bluntly) convinced that you can find you without any surgery.

Fuck, wish not to preach but.. I believe acceptance is one of the most powerful strength one can learn to obtain. Accepting your body the way you were born with it, gender-wise I mean, is a greater thing than thinking a radical physical change is going to..

Well.. kinda hope you wait a little before taking any serious steps towards 'transing' and.. try to learn about the implication of the (latin here) word/verb.. acceptare.

?

Of course alien hormones will not be without side-effects. But, the side-effects of not taking them are far more dangerous IMO.

As for acceptare, I take my hat off for Adam, who showed a great struggle in accepting himself as he is despite that not being what he is expected to be. He accepted himself enough to share with all that are dear to him who he is. A man.

I can do upside down chocolate moo things!

Fixed.

This type of a pastie:



"These pasties will really help you channel your inner warrior goddess. They’re perfect for those days when you don’t want to take any BS from anyone."

A good monarch is a treasure. A good politician is an oxymoron.

Well, I like Adam too. Really. I wasn't trying to annoy, patronize or whatever but ja.. did give my honest opinion in my post you've copied. Might be I'm too narrow-minded here. Sorry, wish the best for you, Adam.
