So I've known for almost 10 years that I've wanted to transition, possibly longer, but due to my concern with some family members I've kept this about myself secret this whole time. Well until today, my mom's health is declining rapidly and I knew that I needed to tell her before it was too late. So today I decided to not only tell mom but also my brother and my boss. I needed to be open because I'm up for a promotion into a management program and I didn't want this to negatively affect anything, which I was assured it wouldn't and I was even given praise for letting her know. My family is taking it better then I thought and I finally feel like I can be me and move on with what I want to do with my life

I got my first injection of T today at about noon I am beyond excited that I can finally live out and happy and the important people in my life are in full support of me. My younger brother told me last weekend that he was going to "give me man lessons" lol I am going to go with it it's funny that he wants to be involved.

I found this.

Siri will shut down anyone who tries to call Caitlyn Jenner Bruce. If a phone gets it, anyone should be able to.

I saw this as well and thought it was very insight and really does codify white male privilege

Images of older trans* people.

Sometimes it seems like all I see "out there" about trans issues, conversations, presentations only applies to folks under the age of 30, or 20 if I'm real about it. It's discouraging. Of course the resources and beginnings of social acknowledgment (nevermind acceptance) are recent seemingly, only in the last decade or so.

I don't know if this has been posted already but it's fairly new, a photographer has captured the images and stories of some of the older members of the trans community and complied them on a website "To Survive On This Shore".

Advocate published an article about it back in February here.

Yes, there is such a thing as male privilege. When you transition to female to male, you have even more insight into that. I don't get why this is news.
