I guess that makes this incredibly ironic then. :)

No, but it's always worth considering where you're going. In any town there are good and bad areas.
Those are questions we just can't answer yet until we see the details coming out of the WH for how the policy will be implemented.
It's absolutely easy to see us going down the path you...
It's an unsettled question from a records perspective. We believe they are going to rely on a medical diagnosis of gender dysphoria, but that presents some loopholes. What about people that are out...
Limited studies have shown that trans people serve at 2-3 times the rate of cis people.
Amanda,
There are always going to be extreme cases in a wartime environment where bad stuff happens in combat. However, given the way our military fights today, the odds of being in a situation...
Leelou,
My last post here was about my coming out at work. You can find it here:...
For the vast majority of people, it just isn't an issue. Good order and discipline, along with leadership, make it that way. Most of us put far more stock in the mission than anything else. As long...
I am an active duty Major (Lt Col in a few months) in the United States Air Force. I have also been involved in the push to change the policy last year, have done training and education within the...
A neat story indeed! You're clearly making good impressions all around.
Eryn, congratulations on the win, the courage, and the pride you have in yourself!
I took the opposite approach and didn't shave during the winter since it always made more sense to wear clothes that would cover more of me in the winter. It was about giving my wife some time with...
Wow Amy, has it really only been two years? It's so strange that I really don't think of myself as a veteran, having only been out for a bit over 3 years, but it's amazing how long it seems when you...
Isha,
I'm so happy for you that it went so well. Even better, I'm so thrilled about the way you handled yourself (with class, as always) with the couple. Not much more to add that hasn't already...
On one of the rare times I've worn false nails I lost one while at dinner and spent a long time looking for it around the table to no avail. When I got home that night I found my nail... in my...
That's a fabulous reaction, there are many who will be envious! ;) Have fun with it and I hope the two of you have many wonderful adventures to share.

Depends on the time period the question covers. Past two years it's probably not men's clothes. Wearing the same thing every day to work does mean I don't spend much anyway so it wasn't a high bar...
A wig is my wife's biggest challenge too and I can see why. When the wig goes on the whole look totally changes. It's still 'me' without the wig, with it on her husband seems to disappear.
...
Wow, sure makes me think back. You progressed a lot faster than I did but the memories are still awfully fresh for me. My first tentative venture out was also to go get gas. That first step out...
It's hard to add much to what has already been suggested here and would also suggest finding a therapist to talk to that understands gender issues. I'll reinforce on the issue you talked about here:...
I definitely engage in my hobbies while dressed. Disc golf and hiking are my two favorites. Skiing would be tough, who wants to hide everything under all that bulky gear and ruin a wig under a...
Of course I'll miss you. Break a leg or, preferably, someone else's leg tonight!

I looked back at what I posted for resolutions at the beginning of the year and at my mid-year update. I'm glad to say I met all my goals for 2013 and it leaves me wondering what 2014 will bring as...
I'll be fast asleep well before midnight. I'm pretty sure this holiday doesn't exist if you have any kids under the age of 7 or 8. Gotta be the hardest night of the year to find a babysitter and...
