    heya all, well, what a week! my sister came to stay for a few days. we havent really talked too much for many years, but shes my big sis, so i told her everything a little while ago.
    when she got here, everything was normal, not sure what i expected, but there was no mention for quite some time.

    finally, the subject was brought up. she asked all the expected things, like how, why, when, are you sure? so i answered them all as best as i can. she was really understanding. she had done some research before coming, so had a good idea what it was all about anyway. she also has some experience with TG, as was a social worker, and a couple of the chaps were TG. one had been "on the road" for quite some time, and seams to be getting fobbed off by the authorities. this was 15 years ago, but she told me she was worried the same thing was going to happen to be, left in limbo land. i guess a lot has happened and change since those days, but was really comforting that she cared.

    something she did ask me, was about my sexuallity. im not sure if any of you are the same, but i think of myself as straight. because my body is male, and responds and enjoys contact. but my heart has never been in it. my heart longs for something else. my heart is a straigh woman, who longs for the kind of contact, both emotionally and physically , of a man. to my surprise, she did actually understand. even re-explaining it to me!

    i showed her my wardrobe (ive never shown another femail any of my clothes). she looked really shocked. worried, i asked her what was up. her reply re-assured me more than she'll ever know. she said, she loved it. my taste was "normal", she had been expecting some horrendous stuff, but that it was like any of her friends wardrode, and that my taste was really good. i loved that. made me smile sooo much.

     

    i know, that no matter what or where, or how this road takes me, her love and her support will always be with me. it is a totally great feeling to have your sis by your side.

  • Emma Gee Stephie, I have the most wonderful sister, with whom I enjoy a fantastic relationship. This has grown ever since I first revealed I was TG. Now I am finally me all the time, we are even more close- and it is a joy. I wish you well with your journey. Xx
  • Elle F Hey Stephie. People always fear the worst before they see you or your choice of clothes... (Meaning 'you' in general). Me and Em have experienced this with our own families and friends. They almost visibly relax in front of your eyes and say.. Oh you...  more
  • Briana Lynn Rekowski My sister has been my next "goal" for about a year and a half now. I hope to get there soon. I did surprise myself by "outing" to my girlfriends son over the summer, which has made my life so incredibly wonderful. I hope when I have the talk with my...  more
  • Elle Horgan So proud of you Stephie, thats not a easy thing to do. I wish I had a sister. It went OK when I told my brother. He seems like nothing is different (good) but having that female connection is golden.
