Comment on The Story of My Name by Charlie Copley

I love male and many gender-neutral variations of my birthname, but I hate what my parents gave me. I hope to someday change my legal to either Karol, Searl, or something similar. And if this gay-marriage thing fails to pass in June, I’ll also go ahead and seek to change my sex, too.

You know, I keep reading that sentence over and over and it hits me how powerful it is, how many ideas and struggles are thrown into it. When I wrote it it was just another sentence…

I have similar feelings about age in relation to my gender identity–I like the idea of being a boy but am uncomfortable with the idea of being a man. I’m conflicted about this–it makes my masculinity feel less legitimate, however problematic that is, and it also makes me feel like I haven’t fully accepted the fact that I’m a fully grown person. I see this going on a lot–a conflation of genderqueerness with a certain idea of youth, and I’m curious about what it means.

[…] Lately I’ve been musing about the stage of post-transition, wondering if I’m there yet and what it all means. Probably cause I’ve been at it for so long, but more likely cause there’s a side of me that feels complete. […]

It totally makes sense to me why you started again. I started T with many of the same ideas. I don’t necessarily know my exact destination but I am really happy with where it is leading me.

My transition has also been a very long and unfurling process (I suppose all transitions are). I too was pre-t when I had top surgery nearly two years ago and at the time felt surgery was “enough”. However, late last year I realized I was ready to start T and so far I feel so good about that decision.

I look forward to reading your post about the topic.

[…] a blog by a person who identifies as “neutrois.” They describe neutrois as being “the absence of the stereotypical characteristics of either gender“. This site was particularly valuable to me because it gave me a way to understand some of my […]

Awesome! I think this Dr Seuss quote is well-suited for the occasion: “Congratulations! Today is your day. You’re off to great places! You’re off and away!”

Also, I’m intrigued with what you mean by “I’m also taking T is so that it will be ‘enough’ for tomorrow.” I think I have a sense of what it means –at least, it resonates with me in certain ways– but I’m looking forward to reading your post about it.
