My First Blog Post – A Snap Shot

This will be a snap shot of myself as I was in November of 2018. One day I was calling myself Steve, and the next I was calling myself Stephie. After five years of exploring my feminine side I decided that I had no other side but a feminine one. I accepted myself as a […]

It’s Me

I have been thinking of late about how much more I feel like myself (some would say “true” self) since I began my transitioning to live my life as a woman. It is still surprising to me how much progress I continue make in my transitioning (My Amazing Progress as of 2/16/20). I have started […]

Coming Out to My Property Manager

Okay, I have been meaning to do this for months—telling my property manager I am a transgender woman. I live in a housing program for people with mental health issues.

“My baby, just a wrote me a letter”

Actually, it was my therapist. And, it wasn’t for me, it was for my endocrinologist. A letter recommending me for hormone replacement therapy (hrt). My appointment with an endocrinologist is next Wednesday, March 4th. And, I should say finally! She has been procrastinating writing it for over a month. And she had to complete it […]

Have You Been Gendered?

[I originally posted this to my aquestionersjourney.wordpress.com blog. But, after some thought I decided I would post it here too. It expresses my view on gender and on transgender people, but I believe it is in part educational, part personal. Hence, I thought it would belong here despite its more philosophical bent.] I have, and […]
