In the UK some public swimming pools hold transgender only swimming sessions, closed to anyone who isn't trans. Might be something like that on offer near to you?

Katie, my thoughts on this are if she is that open about her own transition would she be discreet about your own CDing? I'm not saying don't tell her, just think carefully of the possible...

I would say not every group of teenagers, boys or girls, who identify your true gender out loud are intending anything worse. It's potentially embarrassing and unnerving but quite often a smile will...

In the UK that would be Neapolitan ice cream... ;)

Can't help thinking a bit of commonsense should have prevailed here. It didn't and I echo the others in that your behaviour was lacking to say the least!

A good friend of mine is a Tesco employee and has transitioned at work. Her experience was very positive by all accounts.

100% female result here, but it really wasn't hard to spot the female biased answers surely?

even volunteering can lead to work opportunities...

One simple way to avoid this scenario but still do what you want with the phone, is to set apps to save stuff only on the SD card. Removing the SD card removes the data from the phone. Oh, and yes,...

I'm sure if you go back even further you'll find men "hijacking" womens "fashion" long before you can level the same of women 300 years ago. It should also be kept in mind that much of it was...

Mine is to do more volunteering in the LGBTQ sector, which I have put in motion this month with a view to commencing in the new year. Time to put all I have learnt to good use helping others treading...

Alice, I read your post no.13 and all I saw was you putting forward reasons to put off stopping this in its tracks. It's excuses which allow the situation you bemoan to continue unchanged. Rightly or...

Yet another posting of this type from you Alice... :straightface:

Listen, do yourself a favour and just say NO. Then get on with your own life.

It's also quite possible on your facebook page to view it as the public see it, so you can see it from the other side of the fence so to speak.

Actually you can delete your facebook account rather than make it inactive. Granted, it's not obvious or clear how to but I've recently managed it. I ended up using a search engine to find the link...

Breast screening is normal practice for certain age groups in the UK. I've had mine as part of the screening programme. The only concern for some people is some discomfort due to the pressure the...

I'm not sure I was able to keep things totally stable but what helped me through the most turbulent times was my work. My work because, being fairly senior, I could both immerse myself to whatever...

Kudos to the OP this thread. Great list, so true in so many ways too. People no more have to read it or be swayed by it than they have to read some of the more questionable personal (voyeuristic in...

It has only happened to me once, as I approached a shop doorway and 2 teenage girls in school uniform were adjacent to the door. I got to about 2-3 feet away and one whispered to the other "that's a...

Having been inches away from my parents in a public place I can say they not only didn't recognise me, they didn't even express a flicker of recognition. Once was passing them on the same pavement,...

I'd always adopted the sooner rather than later approach when it came to disclosure. For me it was the point where a relationship went from casual to committed and mutually monogamous. I could never...

There's a reason for that Alice, and it's usually because they have something to hide or no intention of anything over than a quick roll in the hay before moving on. Be warned, be careful...

I've run into my parents and siblings from time to time. None of them recognised me despite being only a foot or two away from them, so it was a non-event as far as I'm concerned. I was always told...

It's certainly true to say it's a pretty extreme test of one's relationship.

I always thought Oregon was quite laid back and accepting of LGBT stuff? Depends on which neck of the woods you're in over there I guess...
