OK folks, some of you have been seeing my posts for a couple of months now and I have finally added an image to go with the name. I need a bit of feedback. And, yes, I do admit to a wee bit of vanity. I will accept brutal honesty but it is not absolutely required.

I think that your photo looks wonderful. I need to update my photo!

I think it looks nice.  It looks natural.  :-)

Love is not obedience, conformity, or submission. It is a counterfeit love that is contingent upon authority, punishment, or reward. True love is respect and admiration, compassion and kindness, freely given by a healthy, unafraid human being....  - Dan Barker

You look nice in that picture.  Relaxed and happy.  Hair looks good, and hey, who doesn't look good with a little bling?

My personal transition path included medical changes.  The path others take may require no medical intervention, or different care.  We each find our own path. I provide these dates for the curious.

You look very, very tiny! Tapatalk isn't cooperating. Could you put the picture on a sharing site and then post the picture here? I'd love to see it!

Being transgender is just a phase. It hardly ever starts before conception and always ends promptly at death.

Thank you all for the kind words. My whimsical request for feedback speaks to how comfortable I have become in Susan's Place and that statement is not about me at all, but it is all about the site that Susan put together and all of you support so fully. So, thank you all for making me so comfortable here. HRT is really running my emotions at marathon pace and I can't say enough about how important a safe place like Susan's is to me.

Yes, the photo shows me rather comfortable, enjoying a breakfast at a favorite cafĂ©. Yes, bling is something that I enjoy, I try to keep it under control but it is difficult for me to do. My wife keeps talking about age and situationally appropriate bling levels but I tend to be situationally deaf to less bling,  And no, I am too technically and social media ignorant to put a larger image on a photo sharing web site. Sorry about that.
