So who has an air fryer and how do you use it? Do you have a recipe book? Just tried a quiche recipe from mine, came out okay but the silicon dish I have was tight in the basket and stopped the air flow so it took ages to set . Tipped it out upside down and managed to get it in the basket with no dish, pastry was still raw on bottom but 15mins and it was cooked. Tastes fine, had a big slice for lunch.

I don't know if you're exhausted by all the revealing, but I'm exhausted for you!

Allie, have you heard anything positive or negative from the people you feared might be problematic?

Iraq Criminalizes Queer Relationships With Maximum 15 Years in Prison

Iraq's parliament continued to criminalize queer people on Saturday by passing a bill that makes same-sex relations punishable by up to 15 years in prison, furthering its extreme anti-LGBTQ+ legislation of recent years. The bill, which targets queer relationships on the basis of clamping down on "moral depravity," also criminalizes transgender people and the health workers who care for them. It threatens to imprison for one to three years anyone who seeks "biological sex change based on personal desire and inclination" as well as the doctors who perform their surgeries. The bill has drawn explicit condemnation from human rights groups, who have warned for years about Iraq's policies targeting LGBTQ+ people. "Iraq has effectively codified in law the discrimination and violence members of the LGBTI community have been subjected to with absolute impunity for years," Amnesty International's Iraq researcher, Razaw Salihy, told The Guardian. "The amendments concerning LGBTI rights are a violation of fundamental human rights and put at risk Iraqis whose lives are already hounded daily."

Debs rang this morning, she cant remember talking to me yesterday. Well she did in the end, in a dark place again. I gave her a motherly telling off "you been drinking again" in a sharp mums way!!! Not much more I can do to help, she needs a good trick cyclist but you wont get that on the NHS.
 I know I don't need to eat it but making a quiche in the air fryer for summut to do (there just slipped into dialect) , ham and cheese is the recipe but doing bacon ,cheese and broccoli as I don't have any ham.
 House work day as well, change bed, vac and dust . Well a girl has to keep things tidy ! Found out where my lads band name came from, the lead singer is a dab hand at barbeque and the wood burnt red is when the charcoal is right for cooking.

The few lessons I got from the GIC via Teams were good, she said I had (just) the right pitch. Trouble is I need to practice a bit more, when you talk to someone you have known for ages I find I tend to slip.

Another round of book burning is in order? Why stop at jailing librarians use the books to burn them at the stake. Two birds...

Quote from: noleen111 on April 26, 2024, 08:24:18 AMYes, I am very happy I transitioned and I am very happy with the results. I fully transitioned as I did get SRS. I cant imagine myself anymore as man. When I started out, I was told that hormones will change you physically and mentally. It really did.

The physical part, well i grew D cup breasts and I inherited my mothers body shape, slightly exaggerated hour glass shape. When my skin and face feminized i look even more like my mother now. Very Happy with my body. My breasts are natural, come from a family of bigger breasted women. I will properly follow my mothers example and get work done on my breasts when I am older, when gravity catches up with my girls, i dont want to go much bigger, maybe DD. It it will be to more firm things up again. I am very happy with my body. I love wearing dresses and tops that show off some cleavage. I also love showing off my legs and wearing heels as it makes my carves look better.

Mentally, this part surprised me. I am all female in mind, my style of thinking has changed and I do think like a woman. I found I got more emotional, this is the part that surprised. I cry far more easily in the front the tv and so some reason I get cold more easily.  I am married to a man and I am very happy as his wife. When I wore my wedding dress, I felt like a princess and was extra special when my mother wanted me to wear my grandmothers pearls as my something borrowed. I wanted to cry when she put it around my neck, but could not as the makeup artist had just finished her work. All the women from my mother side for a few generations now have worn those pearls on their wedding day. Someday my daughters will as well. I assumed the traditional female role in the marriage, I look after the household, I cook for my man and please my man in the bedroom too. Since I cant have children, we have adopted 3 wonderful children (2 girls and a boy). We adopted them all as new borns, so yes all the feeding and diaper changes were done mostly by me.  I love been a mother and the first time my oldest called me mommy.. my heart melted.

When I started out as cross dresser as a teen, I never in my wildest dreams would have imagined I would end up an outgoing woman, wife and mother when I grew up. I was a very closed off child, very shy and a bit of a recluse and I became an outgoing woman.. that saved me. I met a female friend after i finished school and she encourages me to explore my female side... she tutored me in the ways of a woman. She saved me,if I had not met her and she never found out my secret, I have no idea where I would be now, properly in a basement somewhere hiding from the world.

Even when I started transitioning, I never knew if I wanted SRS, but as time went on it was something i wanted and when the opportunity came up, i grabbed it with both hands.

Regrets well, I wish I had discovered this earlier.. I was 21 when I started on hormones, I would loved to have being a teenage girl. The female me is more outgoing, and then I could have taken part more in high school and enjoyed what the school had to offer. I had only really no friends at school and was very shy so I hid from everything. As woman I made a close circle of friends.

Something else, I only started being sad about this after I was married. I am very sad, I cant give my husband a baby. I would love to be pregnant and then give birth to his child. My friends have had kids already and they say, pregnancy is uncomfortable, but a magical time and giving birth is painful, but worth it when you meet your child. When we adopted our child at my baby shower they made my wear a 9 month pregnancy tummy, I loved it. My husband told me, I looked so beautiful pregnant. My friend told me, I am lucky I dont menstruate, I get all the good parts of womanhood without the messy parts. For me I would gladly "suffer" with monthly menstruation if it meant I could have a baby.

But I dont regret transitioning one bit.

I relate to so much you said. The emotional side, the confidence and outgoing, the inside being a woman. The D cup lol,

When I look back at my long life I see how much I have missed out on because I was not born with the right body.

Your life sounds like the next best thing, xxx

Hugs
