Crossing Paths

I’m making a list of things that remind me of the gay old days, way back in the mid-1990s, before the internet and cellphones ruined everything. For example, did you ever meet someone and have an amazing

This has been an autumn of excellent reading! 🍁🍂

I’m excited to see “Dictates of Conscience” (Laurie Lee Hall) and “The Boughs of Love” (Nathan Kitchen) in my hands!

Boyd K. would be so mortified.
Or maybe he would be proud.
Let’s go with proud. 😂😂

Hi, I’m Joe. I am into video games and card games and the usual thing for a nerdy guy. But on top of that, I am transgender. I was born with this female body, but in mind and emotion, I am fully male.

I don’t see it as that big of a deal, but unfortunately others do.

Sometimes it’s incredibly hard living as a transgender person in a world where harassers roam free. But it’s not about them, I live as myself, regardless of everyone else’s standards.

Being trans in high school was one of the toughest things because on top of academic responsibility, your social life needs to be looked over. This seems to be a common experience. It’s exceptionally hard to deal with when people can’t just accept you for who you are.

According to society, especially many who profess to be “religious” being abnormal just isn’t right, and though I don’t do anything to purposefully make anyone upset with me, I am still dealing with a lot of harassment.

My other trans friends say they experience the same thing, it’s not easy to find people who can freely love us. Something as simple as friendship and respect is beyond most people.

Aside from my friends, my belief system helps me get along, despite everything that has happened to me. I do not believe in fake people, and acting like a girl and dressing like one would make me fake. It’s just not me.

So, despite the bullying and abuse, I am me. And that makes me incredibly happy. Anyone who can’t deal with that is weak and has no idea how great it is to simply embrace life.

No matter what you deal with, no matter how hard it seems, you have never lost yourself until you can’t flow with who you are.

Be yourself and celebrate who you are!
