Life as a Gypsy Pirate

My life as a gypsy pirate has been actually rather interesting. I have been able to be free from the normal control of a never ending cycle of mainstream behavior. I have been free to discover who I am sexually and gender wise. I have been living a life of free will and free love. Plundering hearts with promise and breaking them with malice.
Being able to live with no consequences and have no remorse for unwanted attention from mainstream society. I know that this will have to end someday but i doubt it ever will becuase i am a natural born Gypsy and a natural born pirate. Life as a pirate has never been better and i am willing to live this way a thousand life times over.

life in the mens working world

I know that men think they have all the assets to make it in the world and so do us women but i tell you something they do not have all the answer that is for sure. I feel that there is a time and place for us women to take on some jobs men do. I am tired of women being looked at like third class citizens. we are just as capable if not more capable of doing jobs that men do.

Working as Female

Here lately finding work has been a pain in my side, why people would ask is because of the masculine based attitudes that many people have in society. If only more people were like myt recemnt boss just take things at value and give people a chance to prove themselves then we would be ina better world, but because people are uneducated that will not happen

Finding Relationships while Transitioning

Here lately I have noticed that it has been hard trying to find someone who will be willing to date someone who is trans especially going from male to female, but why. Is that we are not conforming to binary norms, is it because we are inferior to others? I feel that people are afraid of us because they feel that we need to fill some kind of lurking shadow of love and honestly all we are looking for is just someone to say I am here for you I love you and I will support you no matter what. Most of us are just looking for that one connection with someone to say that everything will be okay and that I am here for you no matter what happens or what you are on the outside you are who you are and I accept. But why is this so hard for people to do? I tell you why cause of a lack of education and a lack of understanding once we can break the wall of fear down and get people to understand us and understand what we are going through and to have empathy love and a relationship will be around every corner, hopefully.

Living as a Female

The days that I have been myself, I notice that men look at me like I am weak or vunerable. In fact I am the exact opposite, but because I fit that female role, I am considered to be less of an asset to the work force. All I know that I am well qualified to work in this country just like anyone else it's just that the fact that our society is a male/masculine society, the men feel we have no place to work with them or be in any position of power. I feel that we need to empower ourselves and show that us women are sometimes more qualified than most men weather we are trans or not shouldn't matter.
The time that I have been living as a female I have noticed that biased opinions are twice as vigorous to come my way rather than being given an equal oppurtunity to show that we can work just as hard if not harder than the men in our society.

Difficulties of Transitioning

One of the biggest difficulties in transitioning is finding work. It took me two months to find a job that would accept me as me and let me work there and hold no biased opinions against me. I feel that two months is to long to look for work. I feel that because of not educating people on how to help or deal with those who are trans, causes biased opinions and makes it difficult for us to work in a safe environment. But in the end everything will come together and the change from being denied work because of biased opinions will come to an end but the only way that will happen is through education and discussion.

The week and a half journey on hormones

I have noticed that i have been tired more and less energenic and unable to do as much exercising as i once was able to do. I see that the hormones have taken affect and are starting to change me in every way i have every imagined. This journey so far has been well more than worth it. It has been the life long dream of me and I am finally getting to do it and I can guarantee that there is not a better feeling in the world than to be able to be you and no one else, no mask, no fascade, and no hiding in a shell. It is time for me to be free and be a role model for other trans youth or those who identify as trans. I want to be there for other people who want to know and may be questioning there gender so they do not have to go through what i went through of living a lie for 20 years.
