Title: On this Thanksgiving...
Post by: Ellie Ryan on November 24, 2011, 12:25:52 PM
I would like to say thanks to all the transgendered people here for having the courage to be yourselves! The world needs more people who are not afraid to stand up (if only quietly and anonymously online) and say, "This is who I am! Deal with it."

I'd also like to say thanks to all the significant others who come here to show their support, find answers, or at least try to understand what their transgendered person is going through.

Lastly, but definitely not least, I would like to thank my darling wyfe, Dana_H on these boards, for being so amazing and for trusting me enough to come out to me only hours after she realized who she really is. I Love you so much, darling, and I really hope that next year we're able to be thankful for exiting your stuffy closet together. <3

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!!!

Knowing what you're thankful for is what it's all about today. Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours, hugs, Tracey

Awesome responses one and all!

I am thankful that I did not eff it up today by using Dana's girl-name and female pronouns in front of her family to whom she is not yet out. A day of foul-tasting lies (thank you autistic synesthesia), but at least the food was good. Had fun playing Alchemy with my 14 year old sis-in-law on her iPod. Have GOT to get me one of those new-fangled things! My phone is 7 years old (i.e. a brick). :P

Happy rest of your Thanksgiving weekend! Try to not get run over by mad shoppers.  ;D

I give thanks to my brother for finally opening up and telling us what has kept him depressed for years. Winner.

And thanksgiving's over, but I'm thankful to have all my senses and limbs.
