Another Victory for Transgendered women

Andrea Jenkins (center) posed for a selfie as she won the Minneapolis Ward 8: Council Member race in Minneapolis on Tuesday.

Virginia was not the only place to elect an openly transgendered woman last night. Minneapolis elected Andrea Jenkins to represent Ward 8 on the city council last night as well. To both ladies who won you go girls. Kick but.

Disney Dreams

I will admit I have always been a Disney girl. Loved Disney princesses from when i was little and was watching the classic Disney movies. My wife and I even had our honeymoon though not our wedding in Disney World. My dream wedding however would have been a Disney wedding with me as the bride marrying a handsome man who would be my Prince Charming. Me wearing a beautiful ball gown style dress riding in the Cinderella carriage and feeling like a princess. It is a fantasy of most girls. I was watching Disney Fairy Tale weddings tonight and saw two women have this dream come true. I'm both jealous and depressed and loved it all at the same time.

God doesn't make mistakes

I have been told by so many people when they learned i was trans that God doesn't make mistakes. My own father who is not religious even told me this. I was raised Christian and i still am and always will be a Christian. So how do i reconcile this? I fully agree God does not make mistakes. I am not a mistake. I am part of his creation.

I met a guy named Mike when i was about 14. He was a couple years younger than me. This is not the same Mike i lost my virginity to he came later. (guess i have a thing for guys named Mike.) We got to be good friends we were both Star Trek fans and hung out a lot. As i got older after the cancer battle i started finding myself more and more attracted to him. He grew from a kind of geeky kid to a really hot man. When i was still recovering and still mostly home bound he came over a lot and we hung out watched TV had lunch etc. We shared a love of Sci Fi and a great friendship. The more time we spent together the more i fell for him. Sadly i never had the guts to tell him how i felt and to my knowledge he has no idea im Transgendere...
