Title: OMG. My Dad just shocked me.
Post by: bethany on June 14, 2013, 03:16:09 PM
By calling me Beth! This was totally unexpected especially since last week he told me that he had a free pass to call me by my birth name. Wow I am speechless now and crying tears of utter joy over his total acceptance of my transition.

to the mods if this is the wrong place to post this please move it to a more suitable place.

By calling me Beth!

That's soooo cool Bethany, and unfortunately all too rare !!!

Here is what my dad (now deceased) said to me !!! (http://thegenderxchange.com/showpost.php?p=961&postcount=11)
(my blog, link ok?)

( the "advise" he refers to is my "stepmom" trying to convince my "ex" not to marry me on grounds she was always convinced i was "gay" )

Kiera, Your Dad sounds like he was an awesome man I'm sorry that he is no longer here to support you, but I know he is looking down and making sure your doing well for yourself just as my mom is with me.

Thats great! :) 8)

I remember when my dad first started using my name, I just outright told him.. "dad, you haven't used my new name yet, I would like it if you tried to use it sometime"

then one day he just started doing it, it was a good feeling so I can relate. Congrats.

He was a 'glamorous' man as a Captain for Pan American Airways at a time when jets and very beautiful single flight attendants were just coming into vogue . . . seen the short lived show on ABC last season or two? lol Married one time too many !!

*HUGS* with many more to come !!!! We all just need to *never give up* and  . . .
