Hello,
My husband, as I understand it, has been a regular irritant to the people on this board for a while, and has been asking me to join. I've been a bit reluctant because I am more of the lurker type, even on forums concerning subjects that I'm actually interested in. Additionally, I figure I'll probably get banned for being inconsiderate at some point. Well, I have some time now during which I'm doing nothing but trying to simmer down from experiencing some of the more frustrating aspects of wiring an electric fence, so here I am. It doesn't look like this SO forum get much activity, though.
I already want to go play World of Warcraft instead. ...Eh, I've already started writing this; I should finish it. I hate introductions. Let's see...
I married my husband a few years ago (always forget the year -- just remember the day and month because he programmed it into an alarm system), and he always has been a nice guy. He's one of those people who seems to get satisfaction out of helping people. They're good to have around, but you do wonder about the sanity of people like that, or wonder if they'll just fall apart some day and end up in an asylum wearing their shorts on their head and gibbering about the futility of it all. He tried to transition to female when he was in his late teens, I believe, and eventually got disillusioned, as I understand it, and decided to go back to being male. Our relationship is good and generally calm. We have the occasional argument. His dysphoria is an ever-present, but not overwhelming. Sometimes he does get pretty broken-up about it (usually after a stressful event), but most of the time he seems to have a handle on things.
I really doubt I'd be a good SO to get any advice from because my situation is cake compared to what other SOs have to go through.
Oh, well. I'm here.
