My name is Rachel Elizabeth Montgomery. Some of you already know me from before the crash. I hope new members will find me.
Unlike many people here, I have not transitioned and probably won't. I will if circumstances permit, without too much loss. But, that is unlikely to happen.
I live in Alabama, a very conservative place. I come from a conservative, religiously observant family. To say I am already the Black Sheep would be putting it mildly. My father passed away last year and had disowned me. My sisters will only speak to me when I ask them a direct question.
My wife knows I am transgender, and has known for nearly 20 years. She doesn't want me to transition, unless I simply must. In that event, she says she would divorce me and we would be good friends. I believe her on the divorce part, but I am afraid she would resent the woman that took her husband from her too much to be close friends with her.
There is a lot more to say, but I don't guess that it all has to be said right now. Happy 2024.
