Hello everyone. Just found the site while searching for other ideas for feminizing workouts. Guess I'm a little late to that discussion as the previous post is over a year old.
Anywho, I'm a middle aged male to female transgender who happens to be high functioning Autistic. I'm still pre-op at the moment, but on HRT. I've basically "known" since I was 4 years old, and am just now finally able to fully transition. I'm married to a soft butch bisexual genetic female. Can't exactly call her cisgender, since she has very mild gender dysphoria, but is not transitioning. We have (currently) 12 year old twins, boy and girl. I have led a fairly full life so far, minus completing transition. I served in the United States army as an infantryman and combat lifesaver, pre 9/11. I was a multi-sport athlete. I have done amateur MMA as well as amateur bodybuilding competitively. I have lived in 10 different states, notably Oregon and Ohio, and visited the rest of the contiguous ones, (aka, not Alaska or Hawaii.) I have lived in 4 countries, and visited 26 more. I speak Spanish almost fluently and can at least read (with difficulty) Italian and Portuguese. My mother passed in 2006, but had accepted me completely, but as I was not transitioning at the time (long story) never really got to meet her daughter. After 12 years, my father is finally at least admitting that it's happening and not just a phase. A ways to go yet before he accepts the real me. My wife's family, being hippies in the 60's, accept me as one of their daughters completely.
While some of my views are a bit on the conservative side, most are fairly liberal (especially on GBLTQ issues.) I don't judge anyone, other than by their actions and words. I always speak from the heart. So if I don't use the terms J/K, LOL, (sarcasm,) or it's obvious (ie. I ate my lunch on the moon;) I'm being completely honest and serious. I welcome intelligent debate, as long as you can support your argument with logic. However, I have no time to waste on Trolls, Flamers, Bigots, Liars, Thieves, or anyone who makes others suffer just because they can. I am currently looking forward to starting the LPN nursing program in the spring and finally getting my beard area hair removed with lazer and electrolysis with our next tax return. My hobbies include structural engineering, gaming, Ohio State football (but not a fan-girl,) martial arts, cars, the military, shopping, cooking, and the girliest things you can think of, (such as My Little Pony FIM.)
My biggest faults are that occasionally I'm stubborn, procrastinate, and don't always take my own advice. (cough, cough, fitness.)
Hopefully I can get to know many of you and we can support each other like family. Though we may disagree at times (occasionally vociferously,) I respect and love you all as human beings.
HUGS!
