Title: Wife's Acceptance
Post by: gennee on May 08, 2012, 11:47:23 AM
Last Thursday evening my wife accepted me as a transgender person. It happened at a meeting at church. We are part of a task force that is creating and LGBTQI ministry which will kick off in June. Each person shared the their story and reasons for being there. When it was Louise's turn she shared her acceptance of me as a transgender woman. I was thrilled to say the least. It was also something that I prayed for. The following night I revealed my feminine name to her. I sensed that she was ready and my hunch proved to be correct. Louise read an article that I had written for an online magazine. She liked the article very much. Her acceptance means so much. There are some things that we are still working on but the future looks bright. My group of friends want to meet her. Louise has some trepidations right now but in time she will be ready. I'm so thankful and rejoicing.

genee,
Sensational! A Beautiful story. Your prayers are answered. When this happens all you want to do is talk. The learning will be ongoing and it will be wonderful when she is ready to meet your friends. So much to share now, cosmetics, bling, fashion and shopping. To be a part of LGBTTQI etc is so much more exciting than binary. An accepting SO is a very special person that we are blessed to have in our lives. Wishes for the two of you having many Happy years ahead.

Jamie
