We Try and We Cry (song idea) - Post #49


I have never been a songwriter, but these words came to me back in December of 2021.  The words were inspired by my experience sand other transgender people who have shared their struggles and fears in being their authentic self.  I doubt this will ever be put to music, but I thought it was time to share it. Sometimes, all we can do is try and cry.


We Try and We Cry

MELODY: Oh we try...and we cry…….. oh we try...and we cry…….we try, and we try, but we cry


We see smiles from others, and we cry

We see beauty all around us, and we try

We feel the love from others for who they know, and we try

When will we be able to smile, instead we cry


MELODY: Oh we try...and we cry…….. oh we try...and we cry…….we try, and we try, but we cry


We are not who they see, but we try

Will they love who we are, and we cry

Will we ever be who we are, but we try

We carry the pain deep inside, but we try


MELODY: Oh we try...and we cry…….. oh we try...and we cry…….we try, and we try, but we cry


Will we have the courage, but we try

Will they love us then, and we cry

The time is near to decide, and we try

Maybe we will no longer cry, when we try


MELODY: Oh we try...and we cry…….. oh we try...and we cry…….we try, and we try, but we cry


Oh we love them when we try, but we cry

Oh we love them when we cry, but we try


MELODY: Oh we try...and we cry…….. oh we try...and we cry…….we try, and we try, but we cry

Why does it Matter? - Post #51

  Why does it Matter?      With all the politics and social pressure now regarding Transgender people, it makes my wonder, "Why does it Matter?"  I knew I was transgender in 2018, but the public didn't.  I was diagnosed with gender dysphoria making me transgender in the spring of 2020, but only a few people knew. I relocated to a small community in Indiana in the summer of 2020, but again only a few people knew.  Because they were short handed, I joined the local volunteer fire department in the fall of 2020, but no one knew I was transgender.  I started HRT in January of 2021, but only some knew.  I responded to countless fires and medicals, and the victims never asked or cared, but some fire fighters knew I was transgender and cared.  When I resigned, everyone knew.  Since then, a few have discriminated against me, but why?  Since the last election fewer people have supported me.  So many assume my political positions....

SEX - THE TOPIC - POST #31

 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 ...

Friendly Advice for Parents - Post 50

 Friendly Advice for Parents "My child is transgender, now what?" As a parent, I believe I can imagine what most parents may think or even feel when discovering their child being transgender.  If you were brought up like I was, you may be conservative or have conservative concerns. I am familiar with how religious beliefs or even basic biology knowledge dictate how some view the topic.  It is not my intention to say who is right or who is wrong; but I would like to ask if you are struggling with such issues, please ask yourself if you love your child.  If love comes to your heart first, not only do I believe you can overcome these issues, but also discover a very special relationship between you and your child that you cannot even imagine.   I remember growing up wanting to be physically who I was inside; but because of my conservative upbringing, that was not an option.  I remember hearing my father explain on many occasions that he wanted a daug...
