It seems when the cis female spouse decides to pull the plug on the marriage that they almost always get ugly and vindictive and go to extremes creating hell on earth for their mate and go out of their way to poison the minds of the children against the father. It's as if there had never been any wedding vows, there had never been any good times, never any love and laughter shared, it's as if all the love and years of the husband's hard work to build financial success and support for her and the kids had never happened. How can a woman become so hateful when they made those vows? I believe that every married MtF transitioner here would have welcomed the support and would have stuck with their spouse even post-op until death parted them.
I was standing in line behind two pretty young women at Starbucks, one turned to the other and showed off her newly acquired engagement ring with a big diamond, amid the squeals of delight the only thing she said is, "He makes six figures, he will really be able to support me in style!" I didn't hear the word love or anything more about him, just that he made a lot of money. I felt like puking!
