I had Sister Carol Ann in grade school, and sister Agnes in high school.
They encouraged me through a rough home life and showed so much patience and love. Because of them I am still here.

My Aunt Erminia who took me in during summers so I didn't have to be in the war zone that was my parents marriage. She worked me on her ranch and it was kind of like "wax on, wax off" (learning important stuff without realizing you are learning).

A whole big list of Femmes who taught me too many things to list here, but gosh my world would be so different without them. They are the ones that continue to touch my life every day.

My grandma,from an early age she knew I was going to be diffrent than any other of her grandkids.Grannie always told me not to be anything but who i really was cause doing anythinhg else would cause me great pain in lots of ways.
My aunt Mary..she kept me sane by listining to all my crazy shit thrue my teenage years with a calm eye and warm heart.
My aunt Louise...not really blood family but as colse as u can get..she was flanboiant,fast liveing,drove a mg convertable that had a repo of a dick for a gear shift stick.She finaly got threw to my thick head that I was the only one who could change my life as well that life was lots of give and take...the diff was knowing when to give and when to take what was offered.
My mom..Even tho we fussed a lot,didnt always get along.She taught me responsablity even if u choked on it that sometimes u just have to do it.
The one thing I wish I had learned was how to let ppl in my life easyer and not guard my heart so tightly..ya know that wall so many of us put up to sheild us from more hurt?I gess I will be working on that one till the lights go out or someone comes along that is brave enough to reach over or threw the defence.I learned there is two sets of rules,one for me and one for the rest of the world even if we all are in the same place.I gess this is some of what my grannie ment about life.

Arwen and Bit saved my life, literally. I was suicidal after my botched top surgery. They both talked to me and checked in with me, and held my hand, and hugged me telepathically. I was on the edge. They were there pulling me back.

Rosie for caring for this ol' fart 24/7. I am not the easiest person to live with.

My adopted sister, again for caring/loving this ol' queer guy.

I am very blessed.

I am ashamed I did not include my mother...she was in the forefront of my mind but I wanted to get the others down so I wouldnt forget them..believing I would NEVER forget Mom...

well I did...

this woman was my rock. Even when I was at my worst, this lady carried me through. But dont believe for a moment she was a cuddly loving mother. Nope..i didnt get that from her. I got tough love. And for decades resented her for it. But then,as I got more and more sober, and with more therapy, I realized 1) she did what she could with what she had as a parent 2) she was dealing with alot of family baggage, her side, dad's side and us kids 3) she had her own compulsive problem with gambling 4) she lived in a time when women were second class citizens and yet she had to fight hard and give up so much to support the men in her life 5) the way her kids repaid her for all she did for the family was to commit suicide, give birth to an illigetimate baby (in a time when that was really taboo) and me, the drunken lesbian...

this woman was incredible for all she had to deal with. She taught me alot of things..including foremost how to be a good parent by watching her be a wonderful grandparent. (she sucked at being a parent!) She taught me how to have a long term relationship...a marriage. Her and my dad were married almost 50 years. She taught me what deal breakers are...and how so much we think are deal breakers, arent. But those that are, are unconditionally deal breakers. She taught me frugality and she taught me generosity.

how did I forget to mention this woman?

Hands down 1# was my mom, she wasn't perfect but she was one hell of a strong woman... I could never thank her enough if I had had a thousand years for all she has given.

I loved my mom and she did the best that she could, but most of her inadvertant lessons were trenched in what I shouldn't do or who I shouldn't be versus what to do and who to be and the like. So, while she did help mold me, it became more about how not to be like my mom than anything else. She was a very selfless person though and that is something I try to keep in mind as I make my way through the world.

The women that helped mold me the most were my best friend (though a child at the time) and her mother, my surrogate mother. As I grew up and out, my second husband's mother and I were close until her death.

A few years later, I found another site and met so many wonderful, beautiful femmes and they helped me define myself and to grow, not only as a femme, but as a human being. I've looked to them when I needed clarification, off and on, for years now and they've never steered me wrong. Arwen, Bit, Diva, and Laura (until her passing a few years ago) have been exceptionally important to me and my growth.

Default Another great thread!!

Women that helped me become who I am today:

My mother: for allowing me to wear formal dresses and faux fur to grade school, because I’d insist on being dressed ‘properly’, even though ‘dressing properly’ meant I looked like a fat little Portuguese drag queen. (seriously, i have pictures--it's crazy!)

My high school Theatre Arts Teacher/Mentor Leah, who taught me the inherent value of a great pair of stiletto heels, AND how to walk in them!

My grandmothers who worked hard, loved harder, and taught me all I know about loyalty and fierce love, to never accept 'acceptance' and demand instead embracing and rejoicing.

The feminist women, all of them, who walked and plowed the road before me.

All the women I have worked with, who have shared their stories, and tears, and have shown me that moments of grace are possible in the most f*cked up situations, that laughter comes just when you need it, sometimes right in the middle of a huge, snot bubbling, donkey braying sob fest, and that we are strong, resilient, magnificent creatures.

My birth mother for having both the guts and the wisdom to give me up for adoption ... I wish I could meet her to let her know that I DO love her and to thank her for giving me a chance in life that I may not have had.

My adoptive mother who by telling me who I shouldn't become, who I shouldn't associate with and for not listening when I felt she needed to gave me the strength to become who I am, the courage to stand up for what I believe and the willpower to survive all of life's trials and tribulations so far.

My beautiful grandmother for seeing things through my eyes, for teaching me to whistle, spit watermelon seeds and climb trees. She encouraged my passion for music, talked to me openly as an adult even when I was a child, told me things other relations hid from me and listened when I had something to say. She taught me to cook, held me when I sought shelter and raised me up higher than any other person did. She allowed me to be who I was and defended my individuality.I miss her so much.

My loving partner of five years who has stood beside me through my "small step journey". For showing me that the phrase "your scars don't matter" can be spoken honestly. For showing me how to love again. For taming my anger and for teaching me how to live again, comfortable in my own battle-scarred skin. She is my best friend, my lover, my mentor, my muse and my life would not be the same without her in it.

There are other women of notability but none more important than these four.

The first woman, outside of family. who influenced who I am today was my 6th grade teacher.
I tried to be as close to her as I could at all times. I had such a crush on the old leisure suit wearing butch. *sigh*
We had ERA debates and kept Watergate scrapbooks in her class. First woman I knew that was not a Miss or Mrs, but MS.
I saw a copy of 'The Women's Room' on her desk and tried so hard to read it. It was so over my head. (but it had lesbians in it!)

The women that inspired me were:

1} Momma- strongest woman I have ever met
2) Mrs. Minnifield - a teacher, a strong woman with attitude that wasn't afraid to show it.
3} Luann Falk- a mentor, a friend
4} Both or my grandma's
5} Each of my partner's have had some hand in inspiring me, making me a better woman, whether that be by pissing me off until I expected more or a particular essence they had.
6} My niece, while she is not a woman, she has more wisdom and honesty than most grown women I know.
