PICTURES

  A while back I was asked by one of my good friends what the deal with all my pics were. I asked him what I meant as this was before my other account was hacked and I had many more pictures up on Facebook. I'm still working on getting some up. But back to the point this question pertained to my "Quinn album" and no other. So I asked them what exactly they meant and this way thier response.   I realize that you came out and even changed your name and that is cool. Lots of people change names and everything when they come out without doing what you did are doing. So I asked exactly what my friend meant by this they told me all the pics in blouses the one in the long dress like are you trying to prove something. It was a bit of a sting.  So I simply said no actually I'm letting my true self come through the person  I was always meant to be. I got a nice apology for what was said and they did feel bad for asking the way they did.   So why this entry now w...

NAME DYSPHORIA

 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ It took me a while to decide what site I was going to put this one in as it is effecting me both with my seizure side and my Non Binary prefered name side. I decided finally to enter it here as in the end really applies more to this blog. Especially with the certain situations and places the name dysphoria can and has kicked in. It really has kicked in at home as all of family absolutely refuses to acknowledge me as Quinn and I'm still referred to by my birthname this I have noticed every so often is a trigger for a seizure. Or at least a trigger where I need to destress.   Another place I found it effecting me and in this area a fair bit I have to admit is my fault. This happens at poker especially on a Sunday afternoon I finding it more percentage if you take the size of the crowds. It's strange before I came out as Quinn I never minded going by my last name. But I guess because my new name has turned me into a new person, more free person. Or should I say...

FROM CIS (DAVID TIL NOW (QUINN)

 For anybody who know me they all know I was born CIS male or AMAB. Now I have to admit for a good bulk of my life I did feel "ok" not perfect but ok as my assigned gender. I remember in my early teen years I was doing guy things. Well because hey David that's what was expected of you . At the time I didn't think anything else.  I found myself in a puzzle with some pieces missing from my puzzle so naturally I continued on as David and my assigned gender not only to my family but everyone else. So slowly the pieces started dropping into where they fit. The started fitting more when I began talking to a former teacher, a best friend of mine, and a friend from camp who has a transgender son.  With all the puzzle pieces I have found that I found my true self as a non binary Transgender and not the cis male I had to be. I also found out something else that I had heard from more than one person that I had a noticeable feminine side to me. It was something I didn't reali...

ADDED PRONOUN

  For the longest time I have either been going by my preferred chosen name of Quinn, or my pronouns They/Them/Thier. I will still be using these pronouns nothing has changed in that area. The only thing that has changed and I'm betting with both schock people and they will have a hard time getting used to are pronouns I'm adding. She/Her. I know of course I will 9/10 times still be using  He/Him especially with my appearance, even in my feminine clothing i have my masculine appearance but feel feminine. And that's why I've been waiting so long to write this entry.  Before I move on to why I will be misgendered another bit of background relati1ng specifically for this entry. As I've written in other blogs about not only feeling non binary but also transgender. Especially feeling extremely free and on cloud nine when I'm wearing my feminine clothes. Now don't get me wrong it's not something I need to do everyday or fo everyday. But it is something that re...

FROM ONE END RAINBOW TO OTHER. HOW MY OUTSIDE IS IN SYNC WITH INSIDE.

  After watching so many videos and reading so much plus everything on TV these days I've gotten a newer aspect. As everyone knows I first came out as gay and I thought that was going to make me happy and where I belonged. Then I came out as bisexual that gave me a bit of more who I was at the time. Well I thought it would for sure. Then I came out as non binary cganged my name to Quinn. And that was truly a great feeling of euphoria such a cloud nine.  Recently I had been watching videos about Transgender people and I saw that there was so much more to it. It wasn't just going from male to female or vice-versa on the outside. You could transition on the outside but keep the masculinity or femininity you had beforehand. This absolutely blew my mind in some ways and in others it made sense like ok I always thought of transgender just switching sexes becoming male or female not thinking non binary is also transition just a different way.  So I have dated girls as has been m...

HOW TRANSGENDER AND NON BINARY HAVE AFFECTED ME.

🏳️‍🌈With today being Transgender Day Of Visibility I thought it would be a good time to do this entry. Both Transgender and Non Binary have really been playing a huge part in my life for a very long time, as I believe I've mentioned before probably going back to my middle high-school days. So from 15 til I fully came out the at age 47 going on 48.    I really always knew about this as I have mentioned other times. Well not always but since as said 15 or 16, and as people know I had a tricky time up until really my mid 40s.    First off going to catholic school all my life and up until my late 20s I had a deep belief in the Bible God devil heaven and hell. Secondly I have a huge Christian family with total belief with nuns and a priest in the family. So that made things tricky for me.   So how else did I know or at least think I fit into the Transgender Non Binary category. Ok to start off with until ten years ago I had never heard the term Non Binary before. O...

TRANSGENDER DAY OF VISIBILTY

  🏳️‍🌈Today is international Transgender day of visibility. A day over the last couple of years that has really taken a place in my heart. Not only do I know a few people who are transgender personally two very good friends of mine both of thier sons are transgender. Kerry her son Nathan and Aubyn her son Taegyn. Eventhough never having met either I feel close to both Nathan and Taegyn.   I'm very glad for having known both thier mothers for eventually both of them showed me hiding the real me was hurting me physically emotionally and mentally. So it was easier for me to come out. Eventhough my eventhough they say they aren't seem to be towards me homophobic family says they were going to accept me, I got a backhand.  So lately everytime I go into Toronto I'm able to put an outfit on that makes me feel as free as the wind. It might be jeans and t shirt like any guy or a nice blouse skirt or a blouse and jeans. Sometimes I've even done a dress and it's a feeling of...
