The Rules
Since launching this site I have been told a few times that, “although the site is great but I want to see more.” My response to this has been, to inform them that I’ll be blogging once a week make sure they check out the blog for updates. I haven’t decided as to which day of the week will be my official blog day or if I need an “official day.”
This blog, however, is intended to lay down the “rules” and say what I will and won’t be writing about here. Although I am a fairly open person I feel that it’s important to have certain boundaries and to communicate those to your audience.
I do plan on keeping this blog more about my transition and my life before, during, and after my transition. As safety is my number one concern I will not be writing details that will put myself or others at risk. This means that persons, places and dates may be withheld.
Another core belief of mine is that a persons personal life should remain personal. This belief has lead me to making the decision that many parts of my transition around my personal won’t be showing up here. This includes but is not limited to my relationships.
I have also become aware that as this is something that isn’t “normal” (note the quotes, as who really defines normal anyway) people are often quite curious about “how do you do x to look like a woman?” That’s not what this blog is about, there are plenty of other sites that will tell you how things are done but this won’t be one of them. The main reason for this is that I believe that it’s just plan rude. The only exception to this is if you are someone who is in the same boat I am feel free to send me a personal e-mail or IM. I also reserve the right veto or not respond to any e-mail or IM.
People love pictures, but asking for pictures is a huge pet-peeve of mine. I constantly get comments like “you need more pictures” I do hope to provide more images in the future but for now you get what you get.
Now that that has been said I hope you enjoy coming back and reading this blog.
