Even if you are who cares? You've got plenty of company here.

Gwennie, first off, welcome back. Secondly, right fucking on for discovering who and what you are. I will be *very* interested in hearing about your feelings once you get to the ultimate TG step.

Please keep records, keep a journal, and share what its like with us? It would be meaningful and just plain damn interesting.

Just Jokes...

Hey thanks for coming back here...I hope you decide to stay. We need some variety around here, and my roomy makes me watch the ghey channel. So maybe I will have someone to discuss it with...

Gwennie.
Wondered how you'd been. Good to see you. Don't wander back off.

Griff · 01-31-2009, 02:09 PM

Welcome back Gwennie!

Gwennie! · 01-31-2009, 05:55 PM

You folks are terrific. Thanks for the welcome back. This is a very slow process and there is much for me to learn.

It's amazing how different the AA program is with men and with women. The AA man is beaten into submission and the AA woman is nurtured. I couldn't identify with a lot of the AA big book. But, I read "A woman's way through the 12 steps" and found that I had a lot of the female behaviors such as low self esteem, being a doormat, passive aggressive behavior, avoiding conflict and more.

When I was about to come out, I decided to check out the LGBT AA meeting in boy mode. I thought they would think "What is this straight guy doing here". But, the gay men were checking me out, who is this new guy, haven't seen him at these meetings yet. One guy was really hitting on me. It didn't bother me, it was just surprising.

Through AA I befriended Lannie Rose author of a great book "How to change your sex: a light-hearted guide to the hardest thing you'll ever do" She was my sponsor for a year until she got sick; she's better now, but still recovering.

I have an incredibly good support system and a lot of new friends.

Hey, variety we've got. Some rather wish we didn't, but they don't always get what they want.
