Man sexually assaulted by 4 women after leaving club.
Yet there are still humans who believe that men cannot be sexually assaulted or raped.
well this is interesting
Hmmm I have a ton of thoughts about this article, as I am a mother myself. Unfortunately I don’t have time today to write them all on tumblr. I don’t even know if I could ever write all my thoughts about this. But I’m sharing it because it’s really interesting and gives a lot to think about and could create a very insightful discussion. So go ahead and reblog or comment or leave me your thoughts in my ask box, I want to know what you think.
She’s a fucking bitch. She clearly didn’t want a child in the first place she should never had the first kid and the fact that knowing she didn’t want him she went ahead and had another one is fucking disgusting.
Having a mother that doesn’t want you destroys a person. I would know.
Feel sick after reading this.
This is ridiculous.
I’m trans-stepfather to an 3 1/2 year old boy. I’m not on hormones yet, and I’m just out to my family and my girlfriend family, and a few friends. My little boy knows I’m a man but still use my birth name since I’m not out to everybody so that would just confuse him. Planing to come out to everybody soon. If you have some advice about that expecially for my coworkers who er 90% closed minded men? I work as a welder in very mens dominated workplace, so these are the only people I’m “scared” to co
Hey,
Coming out is really tough, so congrats for making that really big decision. There are a few sparse links dedicated to coming out that can be found here but I’m not sure if they’d be useful to you or not.
I can understand why you’d be scared to come out to co-workers in the environment you work in, those blokes can be pretty blunt and tactless when it comes to digesting issues they aren’t familiar with.
I think the best thing to do would be to approach your manager or supervisor and have them help you figure out the best way to deal with coming out to co-workers.
One thing I can tell you is that coming out as trans was probably one of the most difficult things I’ve ever had to do in my life, but it was exponentially worth it.
Good luck!
ok guys repeat after me:
Non-disclosure is not lying
i repeat…Non-disclosure is not lying
I agree with this 100%, obviously, since I’m stealth
but I’m starting to realize that my non-disclosure/covering up my past makes for a lot of questions, and I haven’t had to deal with that before
Like, my friend tonight asked me why I haven’t had a boyfriend ever, and I didn’t have an answer. I mean, I’ve been dealing with transitioning, I haven’t really had the time or ability…but I couldn’t tell her that.
She also said she’s determined to get me a boyfriend, and I don’t know how to calmly tell her “NOPE, NOT GONNA FUCKING HAPPEN”
I agree with everything here, too. I’ve had to outright lie in order to keep my non-disclosure status as such. It’s something I hadn’t thought about before I actually was presented with situations where I had to.
Man sentenced for fraud after not telling girlfriend he was trans
I do not know how I feel about this at all. Only that it’s not good. The title neglects to mention he was dating underage girls.
Man sentenced for fraud after not telling girlfriend he was trans
Hi there! I recently started following you and am so glad you exist! I was looking for resources on queer parenting that are transdad inclusive and I haven’t found much so far. I’d appreciate any leads you could give me — other blogs, zines, books, speakers, etc. I’m a queer cis woman married to a queer trans guy. We’ve been together for 8 years and he began transitioning within the last two years. We’ll be going through steps to get me pregnant in the next year or so — very exciting!
That is very exciting! Congrats!
As far as rescources go, I’ve got one that is more for when the child is actually born: The Little Boy Book. My FTM Fatherhood tag on here might also be useful, but it’s mainly my own experiences mixed in with a few sparse rescources. Also there’s the helpful links tag which doesn’t really pertain to parenting per se, yet might also be useful for you or your partner.
Someone linked me to a facebook group for trans father’s in this post. Also this post might be helpful, too.
Whew, I hope any of that helped. Once again, congrats on your upcoming journey and all of my blessings.
I haven’t been following you for long (probably about 15 minutes), but i felt like i had to message you. Your blog has given me so much confidence, knowing that you have found a loving partner and are a father. I feel down because i fear i’ll never find a woman that will fully accept me for who i am, and i know one day i’d love to have children, but i’ve thought it was unrealistic. I love hearing you talk about your son, you really love him. I hope you and your family are well. – Thomas
Hi Thomas,
Thanks so much for your message. I don’t get many these days.
I originally created this blog with that very intention – to let other guys in our situation know that finding love is certainly possible. But there’s more to it than that; you can have a family, and you can thrive.
I’m not saying all of that it easy, but everyone should know that it’s certainly possible. There are so many ways you could have children in the future: finding a partner who already has a child, IVF, Donors, Surrogates, Adoption.
It’s your life – you get to choose how you live it. Discount nothing.
thatsnothowitworks is a disgusting transphobe bully
I see you’ve taken my advice to take responsibility for the situation you’re in being constructed by yourself. Oh wait.
Hormones.
Things have been turbulent recently for our family due to many things changing in our lives, so I’ve not been as attentive with this blog and for that I apologize. I am also mobile blogging so I apologize in advance for any errors.
K is going through a lot of changes recently alongside the ones we face together as a family, mainly due to a disrupted schedule and more recently – hormones. He’s been having a bit of difficulty controlling his temper, trouble with friends at school having disagreements and generally being a lot more obstinate at home. I’ve heard lines such as “you can’t tame me!” which while are endearing coming from the mouth of an eight year old are still somewhat out of character.
My Wife and I continue to create an environment which clear lines of communication can be had and despite his recent troubles he is being an absolute champ with the new changes that are taking place.
I’m really proud of him, and remind him of that regularly.
