Is it worth it?

I know the answer is yes and I do not really know why I am doubting that at all. I have been lucky enough to have survived and got through my gender dysphoria for the most part. I have transitioned. I have been extremely lucky with the way it has gone as I have setContinue reading “Is it worth it?”

Shame

It has been Trans Awareness Week recently. I have wondered about that  and its significance. Raising awareness is important.  I grew up for decades not being aware that transgender even existed.  Being aware and knowing of its existence would have made a significant difference. I knew I was gender dysphoric. I didn’t know what it was. IContinue reading “Shame”

Fate

I was sad to hear of the death of Jan Morris this weekend. I have always enjoyed her writing and interviews given by her over the years. A lively and interesting person. However the overriding memory is the debt I owe her for writing about her journey as a transexual, as it was then described,Continue reading “Fate”

Is transition always a verb?

As I have said before I am a mature lady and this weekend I have had a birthday which could be seen as a significant milestone. In itself that is not a major problem although I do admit that coming up to it I did indulge in some reflection and a degree of trepidation thatContinue reading “Is transition always a verb?”

Reflections

I was looking through some emails from September 2017, just over three years ago, and I was surprised at what I found. I suppose when you live your life you don’t really notice the changes that are going on around you or for that matter within you. These emails were exchanged with a close friendContinue reading “Reflections”

Here we go again

It is hard to know what to make of this government. For a moment I thought they have got it. The fact they didn’t make changes about “safe spaces” for women when they reconsidered the Gender Recognition Act and Equality Act made me feel for a minute that they were being sensible and pragmatic. AContinue reading “Here we go again”

She used to be man

I was interested today from what one of my colleagues said. I work in an office where there are three of us girls and one male colleague in the office and there is a workshop in which fourteen men work. One of the girls partner works in the workshop.  Over the weekend she had mentionedContinue reading “She used to be man”

Visibility

I am at an interesting stage of my transition. In some ways I am both visible and invisible. To people who don’t know me I am now an ordinary person and don’t appear to stand out enough for them to take any notice. This is of course famous last words but I have had noContinue reading “Visibility”

Response from my MP

I received a reply to a letter I had written to my then MP last July about the proposed reforms to the Gender Recognition Act.  I had thought it had disappeared into a black hole never to be seen again. So when i received his reply this week it came as quite a pleasant surprise. LookingContinue reading “Response from my MP”

Gender

Gender and biological sex what is the defining viewpoint. J K Rowling and those who accept her viewpoint say that biological sex is the defining issue. Women who menstruate etc. Of course we wont mention the many cis women AFAB who never  menstruate in their lives. To me defining a person in such simplistic biological termsContinue reading “Gender”
