Much older than me???  I seriously doubt that.  Ugh.  I hate admitting it.  I am 58.

I did get a cool compliment yesterday.  Sitting in the break-room at the poker room.  Guy says he is too old for this - I am  a year older than him.  Young guy is standing there he freaks out.  He is apoplectic.  He says at least 3 times -
No way !!!!  He says I thought you were around 40.

Hahaha   I should have kissed him

Well, save that for your "Blue Monday" file. You know. For those days, Mondays it often seems, when things are just really tough...

PS. Edited to say: And, yes, I am much older than you, Kim. My peers are mostly redwood trees and Bristlecone Pines...

I don't think I have been stared at for not passing in a long time. The last time was going to electrolysis way back in the way back machine.

I know that I'm quite content to not mention I'm trans. I'll mention it if I need to and I won't deny it if asked but it so rarely comes up in day to day interactions. I even get the female set of warnings for my estrodile when picking up the prescription.

I'm probably wrong thinking this way but I'll say it.  Once you pass I think the trans part is where you were so you could to get to where your at.

Ahh I'm reading what I just typed and this probably doesn't make any sense.  And no I'm not on drugs! ha ha...

Anyhow - I wanted to say that just based on your avatar I can see why the question doesn't come up - you look great!  I really enjoy your posts because they really seem to come from someone who has succeeded.  Your inspiring!

Thanks. When I started I had no idea what to expect. I knew I had the proportions but there are no guaranties for any of it.

I know exactly what you mean. I don't want to be thought of as a trans woman. I want to be thought of as a woman.

I'm still fighting the legal paperwork for the birth certificate because it's complicated from my adoption from my step dad but I think I have it just about worked out. Once that is done I'll have it setup so I don't have to show anything but the new birth certificate and my id and get my passport having allowed the prior one to expire so I can simply apply for a new one and be done with it.
