I agree Monica, female intuition does exists yet some ignore it. Many good examples can be found in the book The Gift of Fear. I have it and like many did not believe I had it but in time after my real life test embraced it.

​In regards to "takes a lot of energy", simply put, give it time and it will not be hard at all. Seems one day I thought to myself, heck, I am not trying anymore and that was it, I can be concerned about other things in life. That was a long time ago.

Hey it's been a while since I read your book, and I enjoyed it as a good story, but would have liked much more medical-transition related content, and legal / name change issues, it then would be an absolutely excellent read. And I think I paid for my e-copy if I remember correctly! Cheers, Eve

Dear Eve, Steph and Christie, Believe "female intuition," or "women's intuition," does exist, because women, being the "weaker sex," has to compensate for generally being weaker than men. However, I strongly believe women can become very strong, such as by studying the martial arts, for instance, and men can become much more intuitive, by learning to be more mindful of their surroundings and social contacts. In short, men and women can learn from one another! Your friend, Monica

Dear Warren, I beg you NOT to respond! YOUR FRIEND, Monica

i havent been in contact with my mom or my older sister for months. they only call me when they want something or to torment me, and usually I dont answer the phone. The only reason this all occured was because we have...had?.....a mutual friend, Lisa. So Manda saw what I posted on Lisa's page and went...well....Manda, on me. Otherwise I have no contact with my bio-family aside from my younger sibling. The only one who respects me and calls me by my legal name. I have a family, and it's not by blood. I've claimed my family due to those around me who actually care about me and respect who I am. Manda had lashed out ambitiously to that post which I'll show you in a minute, but I was very overwhelmed with love and support from other people who bitched her out for it promptly. We CAN chose our family. And she's not in mine.

Can't wait to read your book

Dear Warren and Friends, Last night, at 9:30 P.M. EST, my youngest brother called me to let me know he wanted to pick me up at 9 A.M. EST the next morning, to attend the family reunion. Because of the last minute invite, I would not have food to bring to the event. Amazingly, they have signs at the family reunion asking you to not eat other families food! Never saw that in my life. In my book, that means you are NOT part of this family. When they treat each other like that, how can I expect them to treat me well? Reluctantly, I said yes. Was up ALL NIGHT, and at 7 A.M. called my brother to cancel. It was the only way I could respect myself! It takes effort to PUT YOURSELF FIRST, and I STILL struggle to do so! Yours truly, Monica

And I truly wonder about myself and the future, will I be able to resist such feelings and make do with a toy? I do worry about that, and how it might affect my wonderful wife (now termed as partner), I've mentioned before the conundrum that is going through my brain, I think as a comment in one of your earlier postings Karen, I often fantasise about penises but I don't think that I could cope (without throwing up) with the useless flesh around the penis called man, thowing up? yes it'd make me sick I'm sure. But will this change after GRS? There have been so many changes already that I can't be sure what the future holds for me......................... One things for sure though as Steph has said you're only human, (even if you're a 007 clone! LoL - no!, more like a bond girl now with your weapons stashed about you!) and I'd hate to think that you're going to continue to beat yourself up over this episode. You know what I'd probably have done the same anyway and risked all, I'm so impulsive and I will sieze the moment.................. God (if you're a believer) bless you Eve x

Hiya Karen. Sweetheart, You are Only Human. It Is just a Pity, You had to go through All the Nonsense, with The two idiot's. To call them Pigs is insulting Pigs ! L.O.L. It just goes to show, that You most certainly are Female. It would be really nice, if You found Someone, You could really fall in Love with, Someone Who You Could Enjoy making Love with. I Hope that I Haven't Offended or Upset You with The Comment, but I would Not like You to get into a Bad Place ! Karen, I have So Much Respect for You, and I Really do wish Only Good Things For You. Take Care Love. Best Wishes, Stephanie. xoxo

When I started the following was used taken from a place called the Q-Center, on this page. Sequence Obtain a Name ChangeChange the name with the Social Security AdministrationChange the name and gender identifier with the DMVChange one’s passport name and gender identifierObtain a Court Ordered Gender Change in OregonChange the Name and gender identifier on the Oregon birth certificate if you were born in Oregon​I did 1 and 5 when doing 1 because my therapist wrote a letter for doing the gender change which is not actually required with number 1 but is required with number 3. Number 2 was started but had to wait for my new driver licence to complete. The Social Security office was very pleasant and also unlike others there for other services got me through quickly. Did not do 6 as I was not born in Oregon and plan on doing this down the road as I have a copy of my original birth certificate. After obtaining my driver licence I did my credit cards, insurance and utilities. Interesting enough I pay my rent each month since with my new name and never been questioned by the rental company. My work credentials started one month prior to surgery and finished three weeks after surgery as I needed my new social security card which was approved prior to surgery but came while in California for surgery.

I started a list a few weeks ago so that i'll be ready when my name change is final - i add things to it almost daily. I don't even want to think about how long it will take to actually do the changes (I am prioritizing the list of course, and can't wait to start!)

Eve, I'm not sure how much I believe in female intuition per se, but I think that transitioning, and as a result being more comfortable and more in touch with oneself might lead to a similar phenomenon. Put the other way, it's hard to be intuitive when you're trying to pass yourself off as someone you're not, that takes a lot of energy xoxo Christie

Hi, I've bought the book and have read the first few chapters, for me there's a great deal of resonance in the story................. Cheers, Eve
