Title: Gender Odessey
Post by: DawnOday on August 25, 2017, 08:50:15 PM
I've had the privledge of attending the Gender Odessey for the last two days. I have learned so much. Imagine walking into a lobby and low and behold there are 1200 people just like you. Where they have marked all the restrooms as community. Imagine that, nobody got accosted. I have discovered that nothing is as it seems and I have met so many fine people. No not Trump followers. i am so relaxed being around these people. I have two more days to go. I would suggest if you can possibly attend the convention in Los Angeles in Sept. to do so. Get your medical questions answered. Learn about laws, coping with dysphoria, how to create a support group. How to put on makeup properly. Teen programs and child programs, and senior programs.

I got my tickets from a friend of mine who is sponsoring the convention. Probably best three days I've had in a long time. One more to go.

One of my bucket list items.  I think it would be trans-formative...so to speak.
