I did a wild calmversation with
@BenjaminABoyce
recently where I shared the story of my gender transition in full detail. Do you think it was true? You can find out more for yourself in the first video of my new YouTube channel!

In my interview with
@BenjaminABoyce
, I put forth the most private details of my life including my autoheterosexuality.
Transition worked for my gender dysphoria and enabled me to move forward in life, but it’s crucial to challenge the decisions we make.
An honest, heartfelt, no-stone-unturned interview with

"Anatomy of a Transition"
Being off hormones for the past week for upcoming ankle surgery has been awful for my dysphoria. But I refuse to let my own negativity define me so I’m posting this instead.

Yesterday Tiffany and I visited our upcoming wedding venue this summer! Our coordinator got all the key info and the staff were very friendly and happy for us. We couldn’t be more excited to take this next step together! 🥰
I used to be afraid of gyms because I was trans and would picture myself getting lots of awful stares. Then I realized that’s just fear and that all progress takes place outside the comfort zone 🤞
Last week I got my letter back from DMV with approval to update my gender marker on my license the exact same day they closed their facilities 😐 so now I can’t finish it until they reopen...does this mean COVID officially canceled my legal transition??
After finishing my call with the pre-op nurse going over my surgery instructions, she called me right back to share a final concern. “Hunny you accidentally marked male on your documents, we need to fix that right away” actually that’s correct 😅 she was so confused

Laser will be the fastest method to remove facial hair and get rid of the “shadow effect”, but it will regrow. you will need electrolysis for permanent results
I’ve been staying off Twitter with everything about COVID going on, but it looks like this will be going on for a while so I might as well just come back
Those on the left would do well to heed the lesson here. Giving cannon fodder to your ideological enemies is always a bad political strategy. "The left are the real racists" is gaining a staggering amount of legitimate currency because of intersectionality.
So our wedding is now officially postponed to 2021 😞 We are both very sad about it since we had planned so much for it. On the positive side, we’re hopeful that it will give our families some more time to adjust with my transition
I'm excited to announce my first hosted stream ever with
@RubySpacek
tonight at 7pm EST. We'll be going over her journey through her recovery from addiction and the role of spirituality. You don't want to miss this!
Anyone else have an obsession with sweater dresses? Like I bought 12 just this past month and wear them exclusively to work, ofc I’m wearing one right now 🙈

I finally finished reading auto-heterosexual by phil illy
@autogynephil
and wow what an insightful read! Well-researched, academic but easy to understand, and greatly empathetic to those with inverted sexualities. Definitely recommend!
A big part of the reason I waited until 25 to transition was because of my evangelical family. Going to college broke the ideological chains of my upbringing and long term decisions pushed me to take action
When you hear a child has come out as trans in an evangelical Christian family, your first thought isn't oh that kid is lucky to be in a supportive family. You think...uh oh, that kid is in trouble.
Just dropped Ep. 2 of my Freedom Group series! Navigating gender roles & faith as a trans woman in a conservative Christian group. Vulnerability, identity, & staying open-minded in tough spaces 🙏💖
I love walking by other people on the neighborhood sidewalk and exchanging friendly smiles with them, I mean I’ve always smiled but since transitioning I actually get a lot more smiles back 🥰
So my company runs an annual dessert competition at our holiday party and I got first place this year with my grandma’s favorite recipe - fresh glazed apple cake 🥮 miss you Mimi 💕
In my latest video of my Freedom Group series, I talk about the framework of the body, soul, and spirit and I ponder the limits of faith and why group dynamics can be problematic for critical thought — why don't we rely on prayer to solve real-world problems?
I woke up last night to a random pain in my side and when I told my fiancé this morning, she was like “oh sorry I think I might’ve punched you, but don’t worry I defended you from zombies in my dreams”
I’ve decided to attend a Freedom group at my church this Fall and document my experience through a video series!
My first video is live now! I’ll be diving into some big questions about faith, identity, and my journey as a trans woman. 💕
I’ll be sharing my story with Bread of Life tomorrow at 1PM EST. The focus will be on my faith journey from a Christian family to seeking rationality in my struggle with gender dysphoria and back to faith ✝️
In this week’s Freedom Group episode, things got real. I had a confrontation with the leaders about me being trans and it was intense 😳
If you’ve ever had to navigate identity & faith in a space that doesn’t quite get you, I think you’ll relate to this
Ep. 3 of my Freedom Group series is out! It’s about my struggles as I navigate faith as a trans woman in a conservative Christian group. I’m processing a lot of emotions but I believe this experience will help me grow 💕
My biggest regret in life....is listening to all the women telling me I was " far too young" to start having babies, etc age 20-30...and to WAIT. WORK and WAIT.
I waited...till my uterus didn't work anymore due to birth control I was put on at 13 for "pain"(dont EVEN get me
My fiancé is fully supportive of me and again affirmed my story to them. She reminded them we are totally in love which is pretty easy to see. I’ve never asked them to change their pronouns for me or treat me differently.
I’ve been dealing with a lot of stress since returning home from my family this holiday season. This past Saturday, my parents sat my fiancé and I down to talk about my transition and our engagement.
I live as a woman at my job where only the people I’ve told know I’m trans (which is like 2 people). I get along great with all my coworkers and team and am very engaged in activities and my community.
Just dropped episode 6 of my Freedom Group series 💕 I really dive into my own relationship with my transition as it relates to the group experience and some of my conclusions through participating in this experience 🙏
As part of my Freedom group series, I decided to interview my brother before things get going. He gives me some insights into what the groups are like and how it relates to his own spiritual transformation. 🙏 ✝️ ❤️
@ErinInTheMorn
I’d recommend trying a liquid eyeliner for the smudging. I use Maybelline’s Ink Metallic Liquid Liner and it’s worked for me. My daily routine is just my a fine line along my upper eyelid with an up angle for the wings
I’m a very unusual trans woman it seems. I don’t do porn, I married my now wife after my transition, I never changed my name. I refused to cut off my parents and family regardless of their beliefs or pronoun use and started presenting outwardly feminine before ever taking hrt
I bought extra copies of
@JonHaidt
Anxious Generation to give away to people I come across because I love the book that much. yesterday I gave out my first copy ☺️
I’m talking with Rebekah from Bread of Life channel about the CenterPeace 2024 Still Conference! 🌈 ✝️ We’ll be diving into belonging, faith, & LGBT identities.
I was just over 8 months into hrt, and I was understood only as “he” at my old job, so my expectations were low. Now only a handful of peeps at the LGBT company group know I’m trans (cuz I told them) and my actual team has never showed any signs of knowing...
I came out to them as transgender on Easter Sunday of 2018 to prepare them for changes in my appearance. Back to this past week, they asked for my viewpoint on my “gender identity” and
I explained in basic terms that I am just happier living freely as myself which happens to appear as female to the world. I wear dresses and makeup almost everyday and am never misgendered and have been doing so for several months now.
Sex vocabulary lesson of the day: persons with "apotemnophilia" are turned on by the idea of becoming an amputee, while persons with "acrotomophilia" are aroused by the idea of being with a partner who is an amputee.
@VICE
we need to start acknowledging the fact that there are passing AGPs and no-effort brick HSTS girls. As a trans community we need to start validating gender identity based on passing status rather than blanchardianism
Excellent talk highlighting the high costs of disloyalty and situations where ethical action may warrant it. Galileo’s Middle Finger is an insightful and yet thoroughly engaging read. It’s not even that long - Strongly recommend!
