Well, I was hoping that reawakening this thread would bring about further discussion of why our wives and girl friends have or have not been able to accept our transgender natures. The heading is "SO Acceptance" after all, not "Are You a Transsexual or an Autogynephile?".
Thank you, Kari, for your personal observations on the subject. I'm so pleased to read that your spouse is working with you to help resolve your gender issues. I think it's so important to have that kind of support where support is so hard to come by elsewhere.
If no one else in the world was accepting of my gender identity, and need to transition, having my wife's understanding and support would be enough for me to carry on. Fortunately, the world is coming around to recognizing the existence of this phenomenon and making room for us in their lives.
I'm looking forward to the day when I wake up in the morning without my first thought being related in one way or another to my gender. That will mark the end of my transition. I have a long way to go, but I'm very confident that I will achieve my goal. I really do have high hopes for you, as well.
Clara
