Made an Appointment

Yes Stephie did it! She made her first appointment for an endocrinologist. She is schedule for March 4, 2020. Initially I thought hormone replacement therapy (hrt) was a goal for this coming summer. But, when I mentioned having found a endocrinologist within walking distance of my girlfriend’s my therapist asked me when I was planning […]

I Wore a Skirt Today

I wore a skirt for the first time today out in the wide wide world. I had purchased a black knit with white threading, a-line below the knee style skirt and a black top with silver highlights at the bottom that I got at a Goodwill store on Saturday. After my morning walk I slowly […]

I will be looked at.

This is about a concern and a goal of mine I have for my transitioning. I plan on a full transition to living as a woman, including my legal name and gender change. It is only natural, or so it seems to me, that over the course of time I will be looked at and […]

A Visit to the Women’s Room

This was a Stephie first. I went on my first date (another post to come), where we met at a hotel before we went shopping at the local mall. I had to go to the bathroom before we left. My girlfriend before I left, and my date in the hotel lobby agreed that I could […]

I am Not in the Wrong Body

I’m a transgender woman as the tagline of my blog states. I am pre-op and also am not yet on feminizing hormones (hrt). So, yes I have a boy thing between my legs. I call it my clitty. Okay, go ahead and ask: If you are a woman surely you are in the wrong body? […]

How I Came Out at Program

As I have written before, I attend a program for my mental health, so this is the program I am referring to. I will give some background about program first. Then I will speak some about the process I used, and something about how that played out. Finally, I will give some of my impressions […]

A Battle Won.

While I don’t care for the metaphor so much, it is probably apt in this case. What case is that you might wonder? I went clothes shopping today to look for a few things. I didn’t find what I was looking for – a belt and a hat. But, after not finding any thing I […]

An Up and a Down

Here is another mini post. I might be doing them from time to time. Yesterday, I wrote A Happy Moment. That was my first one. Okay so I will give this in the order that they happened. The first was in a group I was in this afternoon. What happen was that the leader referred to […]

A Happy Moment

I felt I wanted to share this on my blog today. I received my first appointment card from a provider with my name on it—Stephie. I think I am going to frame it. Silly maybe, but I consider it a milestone moment.

It’s a Name Thing

I was born and named Steven. Up until I talked on the phone with another transgender woman, I had never heard a voice call me Stephie; I only had seen it online in chat. For almost 60 years of my life I was called Steve. Only on July 10 did I here someone say Stephie […]
