Sometimes, when folks don't understand...

Interestingly enough, some folks do not understand that some people born women do not have a brain wired that way. Not sure why, or how to explain it. Even when I was pregnant...nothing like feeling/thinking male, and being pregnant. Teachers would tell me that my son's had a pronoun problem when they were age 3 and 4 because they always referred to me as "he" or "him"...or of course, mom. I was the only person they did that with...so, I told the teachers, ummmm, no, they do not have a pronoun problem.
I am grateful for coming into my power, being able to live the person that I truely am. I lost that momentarily...when I went back into the workforce...thinking that I had to "fit in" or "get thrown out." Anyway, I am not scared anymore. I am too old for that nonsense. It is time to live my life the way I see fit...whatever that maybe...as long as I am myself.
I appreciate my life. I appreciate my beautiful, femme partner...who teaches me about the absolute beauty and strength of feminity every single day! She is what you would call a "Power Femme"....capitalization required.
Yes, I like being called Sir.
Yes, my brain thinks that way.
I love my life, my sons, my partner...it is an awesome life. I am learning to fit in this body and be comfortable, no matter what. No matter the looks, the men that get pissed with me, etc. The stories that we all have are great. Like, the time I came out of the women's bathroom at a rest stop in my leathers, and this guy saw me and immediately assumed it was the men's bathroom and walked in...he figured it out fast, whipped around and gave me a truly disgusted look. I was happy, wheeling away on my Harley...
I am grateful for this life!
So, gratitude is the name of the game.
I liked this guy's shirt at a meeting last night, it said "Your Spirit is Your Shield"...that is cool...how true.
