something i don't?
Every since i told my father about how i wish i was his daughter instead of son he asks me on occasion when i'm going to start transitioning.
For example today he says "i'm waiting for the time where you're so miserable (as a male in this context) that you're going to have SRS"
He seems to know a lot about it and me.

I think he really cares about your happiness and is letting you know that he loves you whether you are his son or daughter....and maybe he has felt the same way himself....whatever...it's great that he can tell you that. Why don't you ask him if he has ever felt like you?

I agree with Star it sounds like he can either relate or he has done a ton of
research good luck in what ever you do and if he is as supportive as it sounds
you really are lucky.:hugs:

What a WONDERFUL source of support. No judgement just concern for you. My bet is that the ties are stronger because of it.

It sounds like he took you very seriously and has done a bit of research. Which of couse is great. Sounds like there is one less obstacle in the path to doing what you want.

Surprising finding, maybe not. I had a discussion with another transgender aquintance of my and in her case too she told me her family knew that she was going to transition long before she had made the decision to do so. She told me that my family probable already knew about me and that decision also.

Sounds like you father has much wisdom disguised in his limited comments.
I have seen this before from more senior people that I rspect and realize YOU HAVE A RARE and VALUABLE things. Wish I did like many of the rest of us.

there are many things I tell my son now that I wish I had done or had NOT done in the past. The point is

this is no dress rehearsal this is the real and ONLY deal you are going to get, do not live you life in quiet desparation.
The sooner we all can resolve these issues the sooner we can begin living fulfilling and satisfying lives.
Hell --- lets really live!!!!!
