Add beautiful to Chrissy's list.  :-*

Beautiful you are!

Chrissy
Always stay cheerful, be polite, kind, and understanding. Accepting yourself as the woman you are is very liberating.  Never underestimate the appreciation and respect of authenticity.  Help connect a person to someone that may be able to help that person.  Be brave, be strong.  A TRUE friend is a treasure.  Relationships are very important, people are important, and the sooner we all realize that the better off the world will be.  Try a little kindness.  Be generous with your time, energy, wisdom, and resources.   Inconvenience yourself to help someone.   I am a brown eyed, brown haired woman.

Chrissy is one of the rarest of people. She is kind to everyone. Lifts up everyone. Promotes conversations just to get people talking and interacting with each other. She is someone who is always there for others, yet rarely asks for support herself. She turns the entirety of her gaze outwards. No matter what.

I see things in her I recognise. Seeing others engaging is self-fulfilling. I get why she is how she is. And I find it achingly beautiful that a person can do that.

The only thing on my list is... Chrissy is Chrissy. And we wouldn't have it any other way. You are a treasure, sweetie. Thank you for being you.

Please don't try to sell me cookies, okay? :P

Love you, hon.

Above all... remember: you are beautiful, you are valuable, and you have a shining spark of magnificence within you. Don't let anyone take that from you. Embrace who you are. <3

I'm tempted to use the Bill Clinton answer: that depends up what you mean by "is"

At this point, I'd say that I am for practical purposes a woman, as much as the AFAB women I know are.  I have a feminine-coded name, I wear dresses and skirts, I use the Ladies' room when there is one, other women accept me as one, and I relate more to other women than to men (though that's been true most of my life.)  I don't menstruate, I can't get pregnant, but that's true of most cis women my age (70)

I know the transphobes run around making a big fuss about how "trans women aren't real women", but having seen (and laughed at) the whole "real men" thing (remember Real Men Don't Eat Quiche?) I can't be bothered to engage in that stupid argument.  As far as I'm concerned, if most people see you as a woman, then you're a woman.   I've never seen any sense in gender essentialism.

Mine came from the inside of me, knew there was a female that I really was wanted out. Plus seeing it in the mirror at times
