I think this comes down to my mom getting to me. I think I need some help kind of sorting through all of this. I think I have an idea of what it comes down to.

Prayer
Dear God, I want to transition into a female. I don’t think this takes away from sacred creation. I believe sin has entered our world and that birth has defects and an imperfect birth does not result in an imperfect creation. I believe sin has caused a grip on our hearts and souls and that… Continue reading Prayer
Lost Autonomy?
Emotions: Disappointed, Powerless, Isolated, Guilty, Ashamed, Insignificant, Confident, Couragous, Hopeful, Inspired, Proud I feel disappointed and ashamed because I didn’t stand up for myself with transition.

“You’re a girl at heart”
A couple days ago my daughter told me that I was a girl at heart. I was pretty happy and also sad–I want to be a girl. I feel like I’ve started to kind of slip, refer to myself as her at the tip of my tongue anyway. I don’t think I’ve done it yet.… Continue reading “You’re a girl at heart”
Another Article
Here’s another article that predates the one presented in my previous post. It doesn’t have the same focus (of course) and details many arguments typically encountered. I’m becoming interested in her writing and I might want to buy her book. https://juliaserano.medium.com/detransition-desistance-and-disinformation-a-guide-for-understanding-transgender-children-993b7342946e
