Small Victories

So, I came out to my mom (still can't believe I did that ) but it didn't bother her in the slightest and she's just being so supportive and understanding, I love her

 

My mother corrected her when referring to me for the first time

 

I was at a car boot sale this morning and the seller (an old man) said to his friend in the next stall "and I've got this young man digging through all my CDs", meaning me! He then proceeded to call me "mate" and I'm really happy! That's the first time I've ever been gendered as a boy!

I also had a sleepover the other week and my friend called me a "he" and my best friend uses they/them for me most of the time.

 

Congrats! ^.^

 

i went to a big family celebration today in order of my grandparents 65 year wedding anniversary and everyone was so nice to me, and we took a new family picture because the old one they had wasn't right anymore. So now my grandparents have a new picture with me in the right way on it

wow, that's so fantastic.

 

I got "young man"ned again today!

 

on a personal victory, not hugh like getting publicly gendered correctly or anything, but while my son is on his school trip I've been able to be my feminine self for at least 12 hours a day for the past 8 days (!) its been soo nice. not that he'd care or anything, it's my hang up to be sure. but yeah, cleaning, cooking, just hanging out watching tv, sleeping and napping as 'her' I really like it.

 

That's awesome (*hug*)

I went to my first Pride parade yesterday. I don't think I'll go back next year but I'm still glad I got to go.

 

Thanks Sweetie your first pride? that's fantastic, I hope to get to pride in TO some year, im marching in ours on the 17th for the first time, little steps haha. first year just the festival, then watching the parade and now marching and everything.

 

I think my voice dropped again. I say I think, because I don't know for sure. I might do a recording tomorrow because I'm super busy today.

 

I ordered my first binder lately and I decided to experiment more with manlier clothes and names to finally figure out who I am^^.

 

Congrats! I also ordered my first binder which is pretty exciting :eusa_danc

 

Just bought my new binder. I fee $43 broker

 

Thanx and congrats to you too^^. And yes it really is a very exiting experience:eusa_danc

 

I finally told my boyfriend that I'm struggling with my sexuality, again. He seems to be supportive of me no matter what happens, which is nice. I feel guilty about it still though.

 

it can be rough having things switch on you, I know....

I can only imagine that it's rougher when you're in a relationship, cause it's pretty confusing/frustrating in just my head...

(*hug*)

 

I've been looking at more androgynous (yet still male-passing) clothing that I might get at some point.

 

My dad knows I'm trans now and reacted just as well as I thought he would. My sister told him and apparently his reaction was quite funny. Here is the text she sent me after it happened.

"I told dad lol he wasn't surprised. First he said why doesn't she just buy a strap on lol and I'm like she's more concerned with how other people see her

and he's like yeah your hair and shit should give it away but he was actually very empathetic he said " I wouldn't want people to call me ma'am" "

My dad is a true chilla <3

Now I don't have anyone important left to tell so I suppose I am officially starting transition. I'll start asking people to switch name and pronouns and get on T as soon as I get my letter!
