finally finally finally I got identified as he. I was at the pet store saying hi to a dog and the owner kept using male pronouns for me. At first I thought she was only talking about her dog because people who don't know my preference consistently misgender me as female. But she used "he"!!!! Woo hoo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I refuse to live in fear! Come hell or high water I will not back down! I will live my life!
But you have no life.
Ha. Even that won't stop me.

I will protect even those I hate, so long as it is right.

And then I went to the trans* parade. Holy wow. what an amazing day.

yes. It really was. And I'm so relieved because I know I'm early on T but I was starting to think maybe no changes were happening at all

And today my friends were over and said I am definitely passing better.

Congrats! When you was Trans* Pride parade, were you at the Trans* Pride parade in Toronto last night? I was there! It was awesome, my first parade. :D
Still your heart says
The shadows bring the starlight
And everything you've ever been is still there in the dark night...

"Fear is a terrible thing,' Moominpappa thought. 'It can come suddenly and take hold of everything, and who will protect all the little creatures?"

Sorry, I didn't see all the replies. I haven't been identified as "him" again but it's a start
