So tomorrow morning I have a meeting with my wife at the high school with my youngest daughter's teachers. They dont know I'm trans and the last time I was there, I was living as a guy. The last school that I went to was my son's school to pick him up and one of the teachers thought I was my son's Mom. This is going to be interesting... o.O

Oh wow hon tell s how it goes?

I will. Let's see how many stares I can rack up today. Game On!

Just take lots of pictures of yourself, preferably signed, then hand them out to anyone staring and say "Here, it will last longer."

As long as they hadn't called it to tell  you that your little treasure had tried to burn the place down, I reckoned Teacher/Parent Interviews  were bearable! 

Karen.

So, I'm back. *Sigh* my Daughter is going to really have to focus and knuckle down. Mrs Kyle was great. She offered to change my name on the paperwork that my wife signed, saying ".. But John's not here is he? But once again, my wife decided to not let me make that choice. GRRR
Other than that, things went great. No staring because students were in class.

Your wife seems determined to keep you 'male'. Mine has moved slightly by referring to me as her partner now. Fingers crossed...

It is not clear from your post if you got the paperwork changed, but I hope that you did.

B.

nope, I didn't get my name changed. Angie pointed out that "It's not legally changed yet anyway." So it didnt get done
-_-

You let your wife make a decision based on your transition?

Reason number 6 why i cannot stand women as far as a relationship. Yeah... its pretty high up there.

We had it out afterwards. But I'm done with that crap. next time she wants to do that, I will get up and leave. She can walk her happy butt home. That's just how done with it I really am.

Why is she doing it? Does she imagine that she can persuade you that transitioning is some sort of mistake? Or is it 'catty' revenge?

I wish there was a 'hug' button on the web that would give you a big cuddly hug for occasions like this.

Why is she doing it?

Because women like to be socially in charge. Run the household... etc. Im sure she feels you may try to take that away from her so she overrode you. She definitely wants to be the female in the relationship...

No, I bet she wants to make sure that she is (as she is) forever The Mother, and to be confused with the sperm donor.

for whatever reason she does that to me, she is really making me mad. She uses male pronouns with me too, calls me by my male name... that stuff hurts! I am going to get my legal name changed one way or another.

What's sad is she has an account on here so she can talk with other S/O's and if she is using it, she can't be listening to what they say.

Well she is straight (im assuming).. what do u expect?

In all honesty, what did you expect? She married you, you had  children and I'm pretty sure this is not what she expected from the getgo. I understand it hurts you, but imagine what she is going through trying to deal with all this too.

just sayin'

Actually, she's know I was trans since before we got married.

As in that you were planning on transitioning?

she knew it was a possibility.

Maybe seeing you how you really want to be and who you really are makes her question herself inside... and that is threatening to her. Just a possibility. o.o
