Jade's Transgender Journey

    Who is familiar with the phrase, "Crying is a sign of weakness"?  Personally, this is a phrase that I am far to familiar with.  Looking back during my adolescent years, I remember being a very emotional person.  With now having a better understanding as a transgender person, I believe in having those emotions back then makes more sense.  Unfortunately, with heart ache after ache, those feelings turned into frustration, which turned into resentment, which turned into a callused heart.  After all, "men do not cry", which was a large part of my social upbringing.  I do not believe anyone had malicious intent in trying to make me a "better man"; but little did they know there was more to the story, which was "Not open to discussion".  I can hear that phrase being scolded to me over and over again, "End of discussion!".  I cannot help but wonder, if others knew who I really was, and if they knew what transgender really is, would I have b...

       After starting my HRT (Hormonal Replacement Therapy) little over a year ago, I am excited that I am almost at the therapeutic levels. Because of other underlining medical conditions, these steps have taken me a little longer than other people. For those who may not know, I deal with a lot of anxieties, high blood pressure, and sensitivities to temperature, which can effect everything. Well, I was recently informed by my doctor that once my hormone levels are stabilized, a lot of these issues can be expected to improve, including triggers for my seizures.  The exciting part now is, as I now start my therapeutic dosage of estrogen, I will become even more the person I am inside.  So, you all can expect even more changes in the future.  Even though I realize many people may not understand what I am doing, or why I am doing it, I am excited to say that all this is helping me be a Happier and Healthier me.  So, with these updates, I am even more...

 SEX- THE TOPIC SEX, the topic that all of us transgender people cannot avoid. "Normally", one's sex life is no one else's business, but apparently for transgender people our romantic life is open for everyone to question?  I can understand one's curiosity, but the boldness so many has towards us amazes me.  Believe it or not, a lot of people actually want to know how my wife and I have sex.. OMG.  My response is oftentimes want to ask them the same question.  Do people really take a moment to consider such a question before they ask it?...there's a thought. SPOILER ALERT:  We don't.  Most  "transgender people" have little if not no sex life.  So, these erotic fantasies of us "trans" is not a reality.  So all these "She/male, Tranny" common beliefs is fictional.   FACT: Those of us who are on HRT (Hormone Replacement Therapy) and MTF (Male to Female), the hormones over-rides our sexual performance, which means we cannot do it ...
