OT "I'm Dealing With A Few Transgender Issues"

You're all set, then. Party on, Garth.

 

Hell no....
There is no way to 'UN-SEE' certain things. I don't need those mental images.

 

There is but you need one of those MIB memory erasers

 

The purpose of trans people's lives is not to expose themselves to cis folks.

Just wanted to make that clear since someone here seems confused on that point.

 

Rooster Rock used to be swim suit optional. Took my wife there. We both had swim suits on. My wife was shocked. She now has evolved and tolerates nudity but has no wish to participate.
I have not heard that Rooster Rock has changed their policy.

 

I am threatened. Seems like if you see nudity you can be transformed into a gay or worse yet a lesbian. Shudder. High School? Don't need no stinkin' high school. Third grade was good enough for pa and my cousin wife so that's good 'nuff fer me. Kids? They don't need no bo0k larnin'.
Had a guy in my Basic Training platoon from rural California who was kind of like that. He called a bear a 'bar'. Nice guy though, even though he couldn't read or write. Couldn't sign his own name but even the hard core trashy guys who threatened these two guys who couldn't pass the most elementary physical tests who both got threatened with these hard cores got both barrels from me. I threatened to chop off the hand of anyone who gave them a GI shower that I would take my entrenching tool and chop off a hand. The harassment of these two guys halted from that time on until the end of Basic. Oh, and I was driven to mean it. Those guys were ultra hard core but they couldn't take me on. Still get angry just remembering it.

 

the thread title gave that away

 

I've heard it was called cock rock....but I digress.

 

My wife will have you swinging from the yard arm if you touch my hoo hah.

 

A Wyoming bar printed up T shirts "Cure AIDS. Kill fa----s." Sold out entire run.

Oh but trans folks please don't make cis people uncomfortable by existing.

 

There are a lot of incredibly cruel, hateful people out there. It's a terrible reality. In my case, it's more of a case of acceptance and adjustment. I'm still dealing with all of that.

I shared a story in here about my 14-year-old great-nephew who wants to be a girl. He's told the family that, once he turns 18, he plans to have the surgery. My niece is struggling with all of that. She very much loves her only little boy (she has 3 girls, as well), and wonders - wonders - why he has made this decision. Some of the things going through her mind: Has she been a bad mom? Has the fact that Alex's father is narcissistic and not been an involved father been a factor? Is Alex being encouraged by external sources? She's just not sure. Fact remains, though, that she loves him very, very much...yet, nonetheless, is still struggling with it all.

The rest of our family is completely supportive and, naturally, we want the very best for Alex, however that shakes out. OK, I've wanted to step in some and maybe spend some time with him - you know, just hang out and do some cool stuff together. You know, guy stuff. But that would entirely be Lisa's and Alex's call. Meanwhile, she's going through a divorce, so that hasn't helped any. She currently lives in Park City, UT, but will be moving soon to Seattle with Alex and one of his sisters. All in all, it's a very complex situation. As I mentioned, the rest of the family is being 100% loving and supportive. We don't know a lot of the specific dynamics, but that really doesn't matter. We're just there...as we should be.

 

I am glad you are trying to support your young relative, so may I politely suggest not mis gendering her?

 

Sure, but still doesn't mean I wouldn't want to do some guy stuff.

 

Can't think of any guy stuff women don't do.

 

It really is. It does involve heavy bribes, though.

 

Your gymnophobia offends me.
