Thanks John, but I do understand when there is a right and wrong time to do it...my Dad just got laid off so now is not a good time but I will tell them as soon as possible preferably after my dad gets a new job...thanks for trying to be a reality check but I am SO SURE!

Wecanhavefun...thanks for the support especially being a male my age it is important to me!

Wow, what a terrific thread. I'm kind of a ts end user (hey, no pun...naughty) I guess. Like many straight or mostly straight guys I am pretty oblivious to the smaller details of transgendering. I grasp the biggies like dropping the bomb on Mom and Dad and many of the obvious others like religion, etc but it is fascinating to read some of the smaller things that must mount up to vast obstacles in total. It makes me appreciate t-girls even more. It also engenders more respect for this forum and some of the posters...very thoughtful sincere posts.

This is a bit of a crazy idea, but you do seem to have a good head on your shoulders and you are a good writer. Have you considered documenting your journey as you travel this road with the idea of creating a book in the future...a log or guide for others? I am sure it has been done before, but not by you and your perspective and not in the later part of 2009. In fact, this forum motif might even be a good style to follow if you sliced and diced it up a bit with editing and some necessary fictionalization.

Thanks happy69! I had never intended on writing a book but I have begun keeping a very detailed journal being a pre-law student I can not help but smother a journal with details. I had only planned on my journey and journals to serve as a guide to where I have been for me and hopefully someday my parents.

You never know though if I took enough time and found a publisher it could work out! Thanks for the encouragement.

Hi there.

I see that you seem to have tought things through, and i agree with Happy69 about the book idea too.

Good luck in this long and arduous path you are choosing.

Thanks John. I definitely understand that this is not something to undertake if you are not serious but I assure you that I am serious and content with my decision.
