Assume Nothing, Me Included - Post #25
ASSUME NOTHING Since my transitioning, I have learned many things, some good, some not so much. Perhaps, the biggest challenge has been the Assumptions made by so many. Some Assume I "want" to be a woman, some Assume my transitioning is about sex, some Assume that my sexual orientation has changed, and some Assume I am a different person. What I have recently discovered is what I believe is the most important, I to have been Assuming. I have Assumed "everyone" would hate me for my transitioning. I have Assumed my community would not accept me, and so much more. Even though some may not accept me, most Assumptions are Not True. When we Assume, we put up walls, which effects both sides. So what is better, Live in Fear, or Live in Peace? I chose Peace. Hugs, Jade
