When I first came over to this section I made sure I already had my letter and had started HRT. Why? Mostly because of the the fact I saw that a lot of time is spent being suspicious of new (TS) members. For the longest time I didn't feel like I fit in. It was like I had to keep proving I was a (TS) woman and if I said anything that seemed, or was wrong, it was like I had to keep proving myself. I do admit I read very little on the subject before posting here so I might have brought some of it on myself. My only concern at that time was me and controlling the GD.
So my question is if a new member or even an established member has gone the WPATH route and has cleared the gatekeepers to start transition why is there still suspicion?
Quite a few of us have gone as far as to prove we're real and not fakes. At what point do we accept people as TS and real? Are we being supportive enough or is too much time spent trying to discredit people?
I'll add this link about the supposed heirarchy for TS women for you all to ponder. It shows just how different we all can be.
