But for some of us it doesn’t get any better. I have lived thru four decades of living as a woman and still not happy. People has constantly refer to me as a male. I’m post-op and legally a woman but people just would not see me as that. It is years of constantly abouse where is just mentally breaking me down. I don’t look as passable but i have to be reminded of that. I think alot about suicide these days. I don’t know how I made it this far in life. God made me like this but he didn’t giveme the tools to work with. Everyting in my blood is totally female except for my face. Surgery? My skin would not had the facial surgery. So i am stuck. I’m suppose to be on top of the world and seem like I will be under the bottom.
Things don’t get better.

However I had to let you know that I am truly inspired by your comment. As a person who is all about self expression and freedom to be and love who you want, I have had difficulty understanding the transgender movement. However your excellent comment helped to put some things in perspective. Kudos to you for such a well thought reflective response and to all of the other women who commented in such a classy way. This type of discourse is what truly invokes change and unity. Who said women are always catty?? lol

First of all, I am so proud of you, Patrice. You have done such a great job with this whole blogging thingy. I salute you, babes. Secondly this woman Janet warmed my heart to the highest degree. This is the ultimate lesson in being yourself, the courage it takes, and the rewards you reap if you can take that step. I am so inspired. Seriously people, this internet thing is amazing. The people I am meeting is Blowing. My. Mind.

Oh, and God doesn’t give a damn what gender you are. He told me ;)

She really looks like a woman. I think she is beautiful. Not sure how God sees it. All I know is if she felt this way from very young that she was a girl how can can she really be a boy?? I am confused but I don’t know how God would judge this, honestly.

I do love the hair. I’m curious to know if there are people who, after they make this transition, realize they were mistaken and regret becoming another gender.
