Not a good week

As I mentioned in a earlier post, my ex 1 is getting married to her 1st cousin.  I am totally grossed out by this but it is her choice and I do not have to live with it.  Personally, her fiance' has always given me the creeps. 

Well, Monday morning, my sister calls me telling me that our mother is in the ER.  She was fairly responsive that day.  By Tuesday, she just looked at you.

Well, they did a CAT scan and found cancer in her liver and all through her abdomen.  There was nothing they could do for her.  My sister and I had the doctor put in the "do not resusitate" orders.  We stopped all IV's and meds except for her pain medication. 

She passed this evening.

Rest In Peace Mom, I love you.

    This is a continuation of last week’s Ask Matt Monday, which dealt with trans men and lesbian communities. And this is a tough one, because I think there is a different dynamic in gay male communities.

    When I first started my transition, I identified as a gay man, which did not go over well with one population – gay men. The gay men who heard me speak complained that I was appropriating their identity, that I didn’t share the “gay male experience” that had shaped the lives of gay men, and that I couldn’t compare my experience to theirs.

    Being opinionated, impetuous, and newly testosterone-fueled, I was slow to catch on. But I eventually realized that they were right – at least in my case. I do know some gay trans men who have been gay men since they were old enough to formulate an identity, regardless of their body configuration, but the neighborhood Barbra Streisand fan club that I started at eleven and my childhood obsession with The Wizard of Oz really don’t qualify me.
