I just re-connected, via FaceBook, with a friend from the past, she was surprised and pleased ( it seems ) about my transition. A very accepting sort. She mentioned that I looked great - a compliment I have trouble accepting. Too difficult for me to see the woman yet. BUT I have to share her comment when I replied that I don't look so womanly:

"Don't forget that all of us GGs (thanks for that translation) also fret about not looking "pretty enough" on a fairly regular basis, especially as we get older.
I'll have you know my twelve year old didn't believe you had once been a man, so you made it past the very fashionable eyes of a preteen fashionista."

It was of course just 3 or so photos on FB, likely the young lady would read me in person. Still..... floating ...... :D

I have had the pleasure of seeing you in person, Charlene, more than once. Dang it woman, you look great! And, come to think of it, I've said this to you several times now. What, you think I blow smoke or something? Harummph! I don't blow smoke, Dearie..., well, I do exhale smoke more often than I would care to, but that's a totally different thing.

And very cool on the reconnect with your old friend. :)
