Last night we ran a StartUp September event at Chams. This was part
bring & buy, to advice session. Along with a few others, I think I
was on my feet (in heels) for two, possibly three hours (Maths isn't my
strong point. Ask me one on accessorising :-) ). Perhaps I should have
gone with the slightly lower posh office style shoes, but hey ho,
lessons learned :-)
I saw this one - Fun raising - from Lynn (nice title, girl!), and it reminded me just how much good can come out of joining a local transgender social group. In Lynn's case, it's the Chameleons. In my case, it's the Gems. There's many more out there. Interesting that Lynn's group apparently has a few transmen in it.
Thanks for featuring my post, Calie, and promoting the group too.
ReplyDeleteSince the Channel Four documentary My Transsexual Summer, we've had a slowly and steady increase in the number of transmen contacting the group.
What's been great is that there's now a regular attendance, so it's not a case of others popping along and wondering if they're on their own.
Plus, it's not Us/Them. With so many of the MTF group being *ahem* part timers, there's chat to be had about blokey topics.
Yay for belonging eh? :-)
